Junior Product Designer

Bringing that feel-good energy.

We're the newest face amongst the E.ON group of companies. E.ON Next is all about creating a sustainable future, now. We're moving our energy in the right direction, one little big step at a time. Join us in our mission to bring feel-good energy.

We’re also here to make this whole energy thing way easier for our customers. Like, really easy. That means providing exceptional service and using state-of-the-art tech to do it.

At E.ON Next we’re looking for the most talented and creative people out there to join our brand new, fresh, start-up business. This isn’t energy as you know it. This is new, exciting and waiting for stars like you to shape it. Do you love delivering for customers? Are you full of energy, ideas and passion?

We're looking for an enthusiastic and resourceful Junior Product Designer who is passionate about designing great Digital products. If you're creative and inspired to design amazing products that customers love, please join us! We would really love to work with you!

Working with the Senior Product Designer, the Junior Product Designer is responsible for producing critical artefacts such as user journeys, wireframes and sitemaps, pattern libraries, style guides and prototypes.  You’ll deploy expert knowledge of digital user experiences and web design to ensure that we deliver strong interaction design principles, founded on user research, to define the user experience for new capability or enhancements to existing user journeys across all digital devices, continuously striving to improve the design look and feel of all of E.ON Next business applications.

We're not looking for a junior designer to just take our product vision and create some designs. We want to do better than that! We want someone who can translate the language of design to our whole team, someone to coach us along with the Senior Product Designer, so we can all create experiments and to understand what our business users really want and above all we want to bring a new E.ON Next brand to life.

You are the voice of the end user, understanding their goals and designing simple, clean, impactful Digital customer experiences which fully comply with the industry regulation and stand E.ON Next above its competitors in the UK energy retail markets.

If this sounds like you, then we want to hear from you!
