UX Designer — Research, Interaction & Usability

UX Designer | Cardiff (In‑person) | £40,000–£50,000 +benefits 

Great UX makes things simpler, clearer and easier to use. It removes friction, improves journeys and helps turn great ideas into better digital experiences. This is a pure UX role, focused on research, interaction design and usability — not visual or brand‑led UI design

At Compare My Move, UX has a real impact. It shapes how customers move through our digital journeys, how they engage with our products and how effectively the business delivers online. We’re looking for an experienced UX Designer who does the research, combines it with data and business needs, and turns insight into practical, user‑centred design that works. You’ll work closely with designers, developers and stakeholders, apply strong accessibility and usability standards, and help raise the standard of UX across the business.

We’re looking for someone with strong commercial UX experience, a thoughtful portfolio of meaningful work, and confidence owning the UX process end‑to‑end.
