FPSG are recruitment delivery partners into some of the most exciting User-Centric Design projects on the Public Sector landscape across Scotland & the rest of the UK.
We are always active in discussions with Content Designers with experience and knowledge of GDS working environments and are currently looking to offer fresh opportunities to join high-profile projects, working on a hybrid basis. There is a need at different levels of experience, so whether you are still pretty new to the Content Designer role you have been doing, or experienced with Content Design expertise in multiple roles across the Public Sector or Government, then there is a place waiting for you to discuss at an informal interview which we can arrange at your convenience. Of all the traits and skills we look for in the candidates we successfully place, these current projects will resonate best with those who put empathy as a personal trait and a genuine interest in putting the needs of the end user at the heart and center of everything they do. User-Centric Design where the customer/user is put first is what this is all about - join us in the journey.
Hybrid Working Arrangements:
As the working world continues to get back to working in-person with colleagues and stakeholders, these roles will be working on a hybrid model, with time spent on-site when you are not working remotely from your home location. You will be issued with a laptop with full access to all required systems and colleagues in order to fulfill your role to the most effective way possible regardless of where you are. Core hours take into account the fact we all require flexibility for work/life balance, as the goal is to support one another in a Team environment and that means later starts and earlier finishes are part and parcel of day-to-day life in the role.

Whatever your level of experience, we will have the right level of role and associated reward to go with it.
