Gower Street Analytics is a well-funded growing startup doing data science in the movie business. We have contracts with major movie studios that are household names, and we’ve just closed a Series A level funding round.
We’re growing our Product team, and are looking for a senior UXD consultant to come on board for a few months to help our Head of Product build out our UX and Design team.
We are a remote-first organisation, and the Tech and Product team work from all over the UK. We also have an office in Central London that you are welcome to work from whenever you wish to.
The role will involve:
- Getting to grips with the current user experience of our products

- Working with the Head of Product and CTO to define a UX and Design strategy for the company that can be implemented by the team after the engagement has ended
- Providing mentoring to new hires in this function in the early stages
