We believe anyone can sell you utilities. We stop you having to think about them.

We bundle together all your home services - energy, broadband, mobile and insurance - into one, great value monthly bill.

In fact, we’re the only business in the UK that does this. And we were the Which? Utilities Brand of the Year in 2020, so we think we’re onto something.

We're also one of the UK's biggest home-grown success stories of the last 20 years - now publicly listed and almost £1 billion in annual revenue. But we’re only just getting started...

In two decades of phenomenal change at UW, two things have remained constant:

-We offer permanent peace of mind. People can switch once, be sure of great value, and never need to think about their utilities again.

-We don't acquire our customers directly. We have 45,000 Partners around the country who recommend our services to their friends, families and people they know.

And we give our people the platform to achieve their professional and personal ambitions:

-We deliver quickly, keeping processes light and teams autonomous.

-We like to experiment, don’t appreciate big egos, and encourage collaboration and debate.

-We don’t believe in ivory tower leadership. Our leadership team is hands-on and rolls up their sleeves to mentor and support.

-We care about how we deliver. We enjoy working on interesting problems with smart people and understand that if it was easy, it would get boring.

In a nutshell, someone who can build and lead our UX capabilities in the Marketing team.

We’re looking for someone to join our growing Marketing team, who is passionate about ensuring we create best in class, engaging customer experiences every single time a customer interacts with us.

-Work with product, engineering, marketing and operations to shape the product vision for our marketing products and to develop compelling, easy-to-use user experiences

-Create solutions and develop ways of working to improve our CX across every channel and customer touch point

-Work with the right team to ensure you balance user, business and technical needs when developing product strategy and features

-You’ll produce relevant, high quality assets to support your recommendations including wireframes, customer journeys, site maps and information architecture

-Stay current on design and UX theories and trends, recommend new tools & techniques

-Maintain and optimise our uw.co.uk site, new marketing owned products and CMS tool

-Outstanding instincts in UX, UI and interaction design

-Strong knowledge of user research techniques and how to best apply them

-Strong practical UX and prototyping skills, a good eye for aesthetic detail and the ability to work at varying levels of fidelity

-Strong communication skills; the ability to confidently explain concepts and influence people at all levels

-Thorough understanding of digital communications and marketing channels
