3 min read - 27 juli 2023

Do you want to hire an affordable senior UX designer to join your team? That's a good idea, because a senior UX designer helps you think from your end user's perspective and involves the team and key internal stakeholders in the design process. The UX designers of UX Coach always work on assignments in which they are part of a team with all kinds of profiles, such as developers, UI designers, product owners, project managers or marketing managers.

Finding an affordable senior UX designer

Is hiring a senior UX designer affordable? You don't want to spend a fortune on it, it might be an experiment for your team and it might be the first time you've worked with a UX designer. You want a good UX designer, one who has experience, who really produces a better product and knows how to collaborate.

The senior UX designer of UX Coach is affordable. Why?

Because her hourly rate is not sky-high,
Because she doesn't work for you full-time, but with a small amount of time (for example 1 to 2 days a week), can already provide a lot of value within your team,
Because she leaves part of her work to her junior colleagues. Of course not the crucial things such as communication within the team, creating a UX concept or defending the UX design, but filling in details, describing the functionality, or collecting inspiration. With this approach, UX Coach wants to close the gap between supply and demand for UX designers and contribute to the IT sector in Belgium.

What does a senior UX designer have to offer you?

As said: a senior UX designer helps you to think from the perspective of your end user and involves the decision makers, the internal stakeholders, in the design process as much as possible. For this she needs solid expertise in UX design and especially soft skills: communication skills and empathy with the organization, with the end users, with the needs of the team. That is exactly the advantage of an experienced UX designer: those soft skills, not only to deliver a good design, but also to create buy-in within your team and your organization.

You can expect a senior UX designer to:

organize workshops or a design sprint with internal stakeholders, to collect the goals of your company and the target group(s), and to take the first steps towards a UX design.
be present at internal team meetings, to collaborate well with your team.
collect (available) data about the behavior of end users in order to conduct user research.
produce high-quality deliverables, on which other team members (for example developers) can continue working.
