The User Experience Lead will be responsible for leading the project teams on to create compelling, insight-driven solutions.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years experience as an information architect and/or interaction designer
• Master's degree or equivalent work experience in a related field, such as library science, industrial design, graphic design, or human-computer interaction 
• Demonstrated ability to develop big ideas, and execute flawlessly against them in a highly collaborative environment
• Demonstrated experience developing and managing solutions for the Web
• Excellent oral and written communication and presentation skills
• Experience in client services and negotiating business decisions
• High tolerance for ambiguity matched only by your desire to organize it
• Willingness to travel (locally)
