We are now looking for some exceptional people to join our team here in central London.
ABOUT YOU
- Experience & Education: you must have at least 2 years experience working in a commercial, hands-on usability/UCD role, preferably as a consultant. You will also probably have a formal UCD, HCI, Product Design, Industrial Design, Design Strategy or similar degree-level qualification (ideally at Masters or PhD level).

- Methodological skills: you need to have hands-on experience of designing and running user tests and analyzing the results. Experience of other user research methods such as ethnography, contextual inquiry, diary studies, expert walkthroughs, card sorting, stakeholder requirements capture, task analysis, wireframing and prototyping would be good. The more, the better, is the point here.

- Analysis and Design skills: you must have experience in gathering data from tests or other user inputs, and developing this into real insights and then into a set of specific actionable recommendations at both strategic and design levels. You should understand how to make your findings and recommendations stick ? how you communicate findings is sometimes as important as the findings themselves.

- Consultancy skills: you must be able to behave professionally and confidently with clients at all levels and in all situations. Charisma and an ability to present yourself and your work in a calm, clear and engaging manner are essential.

- Personal skills: working in a small company, you will need to be part of the team and be willing to pitch in and help with anything and to contribute positively to the culture.

- Passion: If you don't love your field of work and feel genuinely excited, in a slightly nerdish way, by elegant designs that fit into people? lives then you won't fit in at Amberlight. If you like designing and making things, coming up with new ideas and tools to convert people to the gospel of user-centred design and you are obsessive about keeping up to date with the latest thinking and research in the field then Amberlight may be just the place for you.

- Other skills and stuff: If you can speak other languages, have lived in other countries, have done odd things in your life, know how to strip down and rebuild a PC, a bike, a motorcycle, or a sewing machine, or how to make an arduino, a ZX Spectrum, a drum kit, a pair of knitting needles, Logic, SQL, PHP, Flash, Axure or anything else cool do your bidding, please tell us about it on your CV or cover letter.
