We help the world see new possibilities and inspire change for better tomorrows. Our analytic solutions bridge content, data, and analytics to help business, people, and society become stronger, more resilient, and sustainable.

Transforming the way we power our planet
In the middle of an energy revolution, we recognise that businesses are faced with a choice: act now or fail later. At Wood Mackenzie, we partner with our customers to provide the data and insight they rely on to inspire their decision making and, ultimately, accelerate the world’s transition to a more sustainable future.
We’re looking for a Senior UX Designer to join our team and continue to rethink how our customers interact with and consume data within the energy industry. You’ll have the support of the team but the autonomy to conceptualise new ideas as well as contributing back to our bespoke design system and validating your work with our customers themselves. We’re looking for someone who’s upbeat, curious and is hungry for data, insight, and trying new things to get to great solutions.
Our design team works across our offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London, and while many of us work remotely now, we commit to getting together once a month. Wood Mackenzie's ongoing digital transformation aims to redefine how customers interact with our comprehensive, industry-leading data, so if you fancy a challenge, we have lots of very interesting design tasks to get your teeth into. We work with the latest technologies, so you can expect to collaborate with designers in Figma and see developers working in React. We’re not afraid to challenge our own assumptions, iterating on different ways of working just as we would products for our customers.
UX Design operates as part of the Product organisation, forming a critical partnership between Product, Engineering, and Data. We want to make sure that Wood Mackenzie’s digital products are led by customer insight and inspiration. We work across a range of digital products, embedded in cross-functional agile teams, while collaborating as a core UX design team to give and receive feedback, share best practices and pool our knowledge (and have fun!).
