Overview Be among the first 25 applicants.
Work & Co, part of Accenture Song, is a global design and technology company with offices in the United States, Europe, and Latin America. We're known for uniting hands-on strategy, product and technical talent to generate tangible impact at scale. Client partners include IKEA, Apple, PGA TOUR, Gatorade, Google, Mercedes, Givenchy, the MTA and more. Forrester Research calls our approach “a model to follow.”
We look for Design Directors who see no boundaries between form and function, and who think the feel of a product should come more from how it works than how it looks. We believe designers are basically strategists who express strategy through design. Creating digital products is a team game, with emphasis on intense collaboration, early prototyping and testing, and many iterations. Design Directors work closely with Product Managers, Strategists, and Developers to create digital products and services that reshape industries while mentoring others in the Work & Co Design team. Partners are hands on and you’ll work directly with them—no middle management here.
What You Will Do Stay 100% focused on making great digital products — that’s all we care about.
Work iteratively on initial concepts, prototypes, and detailed designs informed by user research, marketplace and behavior trends, and your best ideas.
Participate in a hands-on manner through all product phases, from strategy to launch to optimization (this job is not just about making wireframes or participating in one phase).

Demonstrated ability to synthesize and present your work.
