Treehouse Innovation We are hiring!

We’re looking for a talented all round Design Thinker to join our awesome team.

You’ll need a couple of years of customer facing work experience under your belt and be as comfortable leading client discussions and workshops, as you are rolling up your sleeves and creating beautiful insights and prototypes.

What we’re looking for

No two days will be the same, so you’ll need to be comfortable with variety and quick changes in focus and pace. You should be confident enough to hold client conversations at senior level and also co-facilitate and support workshops and deliver sections of it (virtually, but who knows…maybe even in person!)Facilitation skills would be welcome within large groups and at all levels.

Supporting design and innovation projects to conduct ethnographic and desktop research
Synthesising research into meaningful user insights
Producing compelling insight reports for clients

A bit about who you are

To fit in with our team, we’re looking for:

Experience in Design Thinking, preferably with qualifications in this area
2-3 years experience of working as a designer or design consultant
A passionate communicator who has experience of delivering workshops and facilitating value-add discussions
Experience in engaging stakeholders at all levels across multiple locations
Ability to promote and encourage creative thinking in others
A pragmatic thinker who can assist in synthesising insights from multiple observations
A team player who is able to work collaboratively with others, as well as run with tasks on their own
Ability to produce clear and beautiful documents, whether desktop research or prototype recommendations
