## Job description

### Who We Are:

At NaturalMotion, we make games that wow people. We innovate to create previously impossible experiences that would not exist without us. We take pride in making titles that reach a large audience and creating communities that last. Our commitment to excellence has earned us recognition as one of the UK's Best Places to Work in games for eight consecutive years by gamesindustry.biz, and we're proud to be part of the Zynga and Take-Two Interactive family.

### Position Overview:

NaturalMotion Games are looking for a talented and visionary Lead UI/UX Designer to help shape the player experience for an exciting, unannounced mobile title. This role focuses on steering the end-to-end UX and UI vision, managing a talented design team, and overseeing the entire creative process from early conceptual wireframes to final technical implementation in Unreal Engine.

You will own the interface and user flows for our current unannounced project, and future titles, coordinating closely with the Art Director, Design Director, and Product Managers to ensure our UI is visually stunning, accessible, and perfectly aligned with core gameplay pillars. As a live-service game, you will champion futureproof, highly scalable UX design systems and leverage player data and frequent testing to constantly iterate and elevate the user experience during live operations.

We are looking for an experienced leader with shipped titles under their belt, a deep mastery of mobile live-ops methodologies, and a genuine passion for mentoring internal and external talent to build a versatile, world-class design team.

- Support Marketing and rendering in presentation.

### Design Expertise

- Collaborate with Design Director to ensure UX aligns with Design pillars and vision.

- Guide development of features and systems using deep UX/UI knowledge.

- Ensure design cohesion and best practices across the team, and communicate them via documentation, presentations, feature reviews and mentoring.

- Ensure efficient, futureproof systems that are built on component re-use rather than bespoke assets and screens.

- Review and provide feedback on UX systems, features, and UI art and provide guidance to other leaders and designers.

### Management

- Lead and manage a team of UI/UX designers both internal and external, providing guidance and mentorship.

- Ensure team members are on track on their career path, including mentoring, regular one to one’s and creating development plans.

#LI-Hybrid

We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer, which means we are committed to creating and celebrating diverse thoughts, cultures, and backgrounds throughout our organization. Employment with us is based on substantive ability, objective qualifications, and work ethic – not an individual’s race, creed, color, religion, sex or gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin or ancestry, alienage or citizenship status, physical or mental disability, pregnancy, age, genetic information, veteran status, marital status, status as a victim of domestic violence or sex offenses, reproductive health decision, or any other characteristics protected by applicable law.

As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to providing the necessary support and accommodation to qualified individuals with disabilities, health conditions, or impairments (subject to any local qualifying requirements) to ensure their full participation in the job application or interview process. Please contact us at accommodationrequest@zynga.com to request any accommodations or for support related to your application for an open position.

Please be aware that Zynga does not conduct job interviews or make job offers over third-party messaging apps such as Telegram, WhatsApp, or others. Zynga also does not engage in any financial exchanges during the recruitment or onboarding process, and will never ask a candidate for their personal or financial information over an app or other unofficial chat channel. Any attempt to do so may be the result of a scamp or phishing attack, and you should not engage. Zynga’s in-house recruitment team will only contact individuals through their official Company email addresses (i.e., via a zynga.com, take2games.com, naturalmotion.com, smallgiantgames.com, themavens.com, gram.gs email domain).

**Live in NM’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
