[Sigia-l] Full Time Position for Multi-talented Experience Designer
*****CHANGE THE SYSTEM FROM THE INSIDE*****
Are you a smart and multi-talented experience designer who is
enthusiastic about working on a wide variety of projects? Interested in
an inside look at the world of business strategy?
Katzenbach Partners is an extremely successful, fast-growing management
consulting firm that focuses on strategy, people and organization
issues. Our work revolves around helping clients strengthen their
organizational performance in the areas that matter most, and reinforce
the competences and culture that make them unique.
This means that the Experience Design team builds products that actually
improve people’s experience at work and gets to speak for the end user
in a way that wouldn't happen in a regular tech consultancy -- we're
involved much earlier, when strategies are being determined rather than
just executed.
Some of our team’s recent projects have included:
- Working with a major university’s library to answer the question,
“What is the future of libraries and how will the needs of scholars
change in the next 20 years?”
- Developing a radical new retail strategy for a major wireless provider
- Visualizing and prototyping the impact of new technologies on the
patient and caregiver experience for a major pharmaceutical client
- Developing the knowledge management strategy and interface design for
our own firm
- A social network analysis project where we designed a survey
that allowed our client’s employees to chart their relationships within
their department and across the company.
EXPERIENCE DESIGNERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR:
Conceptualization and Visualization
- Developing ideas on your own and with diverse teams
- Eliciting creativity and innovation from others
- Communicating ideas persuasively, both verbally and visually
Software and Website IA
- Early stage conceptual work and prototyping
- Site mapping and storyboarding
- Production QA to ensure that your ideas are successfully
translated by visual designers and developers
Information Design
- Qualitative flow, process and approach diagrams
- Quantitative, data rich charts and graphs
Evangelizing
- Evangelizing user-centered design principles and teaching
colleagues and clients about IA and design
ABOUT THIS JOB:
This is a full-time role based in New York City.
Specific requirements include demonstrable design talent, significant
experience working on sizable, high-profile projects and a real interest
in (and thoughtfulness about) the cause of good design as it relates to
the “employee experience”.
