* Conduct usability reviews, participate in user testing and refine designs based on insights.
* Ensure the interface feels welcoming, consistent and aligned with the brand values of our client.
Tasks
* Create low- and high-fidelity prototypes using tools such as Figma, Sketch or Adobe XD.
* Analyse user behaviour and feedback to optimise flows and navigation.
* Support usability testing by interpreting results and suggesting improvements.
* Communicate design intent clearly to technical teams and understand basic front-end concepts (HTML/CSS).
* Maintain design standards and contribute to a coherent design system.
Profile / Ideal Candidate
* Proven experience as a UX Designer, Usability Expert or similar role, ideally on portals or customer-facing applications.
* Strong grounding in user-centered design principles and accessibility guidelines.
* Excellent communication and collaboration skills, able to work with both creative and technical stakeholders.
* Curious, empathetic, and passionate about making digital experiences feel human.
* Keen eye for aesthetics paired with the ability to understand technical constraints.
* Experience with usability tools or analytics platforms is a plus.
* Language requirements: English and Dutch.
Additional Information
