      As a Product Designer, I'm responsible for making sure Alcumus's products exceed the expectations of our customers. I'm responsible for carrying out user research in the form of online surveys, user interviews, focus groups and usability testing. I then feed back findings to stakeholders and developers, ensuring that real change can be made from actual user findings. I'm also responsible for designing Alcumus's websites, portals and online interfaces. I ensure designs are responsive, accessible and fulfil the needs of both user and the business. A great deal of my work involves problem solving, collaborating with stakeholders, bringing concepts to life with interactive prototypes and working with the rest of the design squad to actively promote the importance of design across the business.
