• You are a teambuilder, you strive to bring people together and stabilize a design team.

Your responsibilities

• Work together with POs, BAs and developers to translate business requirements into innovative concepts. 
• Improve new and existing workflows and help us build scalable products. 
• Apply the Rabobank design system during concept development and design new components to extend our library.  
• Collaborate with front-end developers and other stakeholders to ensure a development process and a high-quality outcome. 
• Work together with other designers and be responsible for all steps in the design process. If necessary, you involve other designers and specialists to help you with this.
• You see the challenge in working with complex user interfaces and you are both a structured strategic thinker and a creator of pixel-perfect designs. 

Together we achieve more than alone

You will be part of the Design Chapter, the internal design department of Rabobank. We are a diverse and inclusive group of 100+ creative professionals, specialized in UX Design, Visual Design, Service Design, Strategy and Research. What binds us is a culture of curiosity, collaboration, creativity, and continuous learning. We have our own design studio in Utrecht with workshop spaces and all the tools you need to do your work. We offer multiple ways for you to become better at your craft and cultivate your ideas. 

• A friendly community of designers, working together, helping each other grow and celebrating our achievements together. 
• The right digital tools. Figma for design, Miro for digital whiteboarding and MS Teams and Office for communication and files. But also, tools to do remote online research and easy access to respondents. 
• Every month we have a Design Chapter Day with showcases, workshops, and inspiring speakers. 
• Room to start your own initiatives, with frequent rituals in which you can pitch and develop your own ideas.  
• The opportunity to shape your role based on your ambitions.
