Freelance Senior UX Designer + Researcher (Internal Tools / SharePoint)
Start date: Thursday, 31st of July

Location: London / Newcastle / Winnersh (Berkshire)
Working pattern: Hybrid – 3 days onsite per month (location can be flexible between 3 offices)

A SaaS payroll company is looking for a Senior UX Designer to support a key internal tool project during its discovery and design phase. The project focuses on enhancing a SharePoint-based internal insights hub, a tool used by teams across the business to access customer research and strategic insights.
This hub was originally built by a research team, and now needs a UX expert to shape it into a more usable, intuitive and structured experience for internal colleagues of all levels.
What you’ll be doing:
-
Leading the discovery phase: conducting interviews and workshops with internal colleagues to understand user needs
-
Mapping and simplifying complex access flows across a 100+ page SharePoint hub
-
Designing new landing page experiences and information architecture
-
Creating clear signposting and navigation tailored to different user profiles (from senior leaders to junior staff)
-
Applying UX thinking to help users “find what they don’t know they’re looking for”
-
Translating research insights into meaningful design improvements
-
Updating SharePoint pages directly (you’ll need to be hands-on with the tool)
-
Collaborating closely with research teams and internal stakeholders to gather input and iterate quickly
What they’re looking for:
-
Strong background in UX design with solid discovery experience
-
Able to simplify complexity and translate business needs into usable structures
-
Comfortable interviewing users and applying insights in real time
-
Experience working on internal tools, dashboards or content-heavy platforms
-
Familiar with SharePoint (you’ll be expected to make updates within the system)
-
A confident communicator who can bring clarity, structure and logic to a project mid-flight
-
Comfortable working in a collaborative, hands-on way, with direct stakeholder engagement
If you’re a UX designer who thrives in research-heavy environments, can handle ambiguity, and enjoys making complex internal systems clearer and more human, this one’s for you.
