Company Description

The design team at Jellyfish is a global team of multidisciplinary designers.

We provide experience strategy, user research, product design, interaction design, and communication design to both our international client base and internal company initiatives.


Our work spans channels, mediums and industries and is concerned with the full customer journey along with finding the optimal marriage of feasibility, viability and desirability when it comes to solving problems in that journey.

This opportunity is based in either our UK office in The Shard, London or our Manchester office, with the option to work 60% of your time remotely.

We're looking for self-starters with lots of digital knowledge, energy and enthusiasm to join our expanding team.
