Temporary Freelance/Contract UX/UI Designer (outside IR35)

NOTE: This is a short-term 2 month freelance/contractor position.

About Oak:

We want every child to have fair access to a high-quality education. We believe the best way to do this is to support the people who know best: teachers. Our aim is to free them up to focus on working directly with pupils, by sharing high-quality, curriculum-aligned materials, created by fellow teachers – and when pupils are away from their classroom, we make sure they can access those same great lessons in our online classroom.

From humble roots, Oak has grown into a national resource and a community of teachers supporting one another, all to make sure every child can always receive great lessons. We are working toward a culture of freedom, responsibility and continuous improvement.

If you share our values and want to be a part of something unique which is making a difference to millions of children's lives, then we would absolutely love to hear from you.

Contract Objectives:

• Redesign defined parts of the product UI
• Build a design system from scratch in Figma
• Work closely with developers to implement the new design system
• Wireframe and prototype a set of defined new features
• Ensure all output meets WCAG 2.1 Accessibility requirements
• Improve our design processes

How we work

We’re an agile team who are up to date with the best practices and emerging trends in user experience design, accessibility, and user interface technology for mobile and desktop devices. We use Figma and Adobe tools, and our engineering team works in React/Next.js
