About TalentMapper

TalentMapper is an AI-powered talent intelligence platform helping mid-to-large enterprises solve their biggest workforce challenges: skills gaps, internal mobility, and retention. We replace static spreadsheets with a dynamic, 'skills-first' engine that uses machine learning to map career paths and match employees to opportunities.

It’s personal for us – most of our team have faced and overcome barriers (such as social mobility) in organisations, based on our backgrounds and we are determined to create change, helping those in our reach to achieve their potential. We provide an end-to-end solution for managing talent.

Our Mission

TalentMapper was founded with a mission to improve talent management, removing traditional barriers to career growth and development and unleash the potential of all people in the workplace, so they can achieve extraordinary results.

Job Purpose

We are looking for a creative UI/UX Designer to shape the future of the TalentMapper experience. As we transition from an outsourced model to our founding in-house squad, you will be the voice of the user, translating complex HR data into clean, intuitive, and engaging interfaces. You will own the end-to-end design process, from user research and wireframing to high-fidelity prototyping, ensuring our 'skills-first' engine is accessible and powerful for every user.

Values Profile

All team members must have a personal commitment to unleashing potential in our society by aligning their behaviours to our values:

• Be innovative – seek and welcome new approaches to everyday tasks and behaviours.
• Be inclusive – understand, respect, and respond to the intersectional needs of our team and our clients.
• Challenge the status quo – question and evaluate existing structures and processes.
• Remove barriers – focus on efficiency and performance by eradicating bias and exclusive processes.

Here’s what you’ll do:

• End-to-End Design: Own the full design lifecycle, from initial user research and wireframing to delivery of high-fidelity prototypes.
• Workflow Optimisation: Simplify complex 'Skills Mapping' and talent management workflows into accessible interfaces for non-technical users.
• User Research: Understanding HR workflows and employee career goals to ensure the platform solves real-world challenges.
• Design System Management: Maintain and evolve the TalentMapper design system in Figma to ensure UI uniformity and brand consistency.
• Interaction Design: Create intuitive, logical flows for complex data-driven tasks.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Frontend Engineers to ensure design feasibility and smooth handovers to development.

Experience Required

• Core UI/UX Practice: Proven experience in a UI/UX role, ideally within a SaaS or data-heavy environment.
• Tooling Expertise: Expert-level proficiency in Figma for wireframing, prototyping, and design system management.
• Research & Logic: Experience conducting user research and translating findings into actionable user flows.
• Visual Identity: Experience maintaining consistent design systems and brand libraries.
• Technical Understanding: A solid grasp of design feasibility (understanding how React/web components function) to unblock engineering work.

Skills Required

• Logical Design: Simplifies complex 'Skills Mapping' workflows into accessible interfaces for non-technical users.
• Empathy: A passion for understanding the user's needs and removing barriers to their success.
• Communication: Ability to clearly articulate design decisions to stakeholders and engineers.
• Problem Solving: A proactive approach to simplifying complex data structures through elegant design.
