You are familiar with leading contextual user research, mapping user experiences and customer journeys as well as leading co-creation workshops, idea generation, prototyping and blueprinting service solutions to name a few.

On a typical project you will:
• Understand the end-user and customer behaviour, needs and changes
• Solve problems with natural innovative and analytical skills
• Work with customers, business stakeholders and staff to develop customer and business centric concepts
• Produce a range of service design deliverables for different touch points

We want you to have
• At least 3+ years of relevant experience
• Strong presentation, storytelling, and social skills
• Be able to articulate and visualize complex matters clearly

• Strong workshop facilitation skills
• Fluent English and Swedish skills
• Affinity with frog’s values, and a passion for creating products and services that meet people's functional and emotional needs

• Valid working permit for Sweden/EU
It would be a bonus if you had:
• Bachelor/Master degree in Design, Design Research or related discipline.
• Experience working in a variety of organisations (start-up, corporate, agency/consultancy)
• Academic, professional, or life experience from outside the design field that enriches your perspective as a designer
We offer a collaborative and inclusive environment that pushes you to learn and grow. frogs are open, flexible and prize positivity as highly as performance and outcomes. You’ll be working as a part of a multidisciplinary team with diverse clients, who range from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies.
