We’ll include any specific roles we’re recruiting for here but if you don’t see what you’re looking for then don’t let that stop you getting in touch. We’re always happy to hear from interested people – particularly SEO experts, artworkers, designers, developers, motion graphics designers – and things are moving fast so it’s always good to know who’s out there.

Trust in team

People are the most important part of who we are and we work hard to build a work environment where everyone feels valued, respected and at home. We run an open and transparent company where team can and do contribute to the decisions and direction of Daysix.

Making good things

We’re rooted in making good things. When a project is good and we deliver well we’re happy. When it does good and makes a positive impact in the world, we love it. When it does both, that’s what really makes us tick.

We have a blended model, taking on good service work as well as developing our own products. Our clients range from international clothing brands and national organisations right down to independent start-ups.

Full-time:  35 hours per week

Salary: £30,000 – £50,000 dependent on experience

Our mission at Daysix is to change the world for good with courage and creativity. We’re a team of designers, developers, and creatives who thrive on solving complex problems and delivering innovative digital solutions for a broad range of clients. At the heart of our success is a commitment to fostering a positive culture and environments where every individual can thrive.

Daysix is looking for a Frontend Developer with React experience to join our healthcare focused development team. You could be relatively new to React or have considerable experience with the technology. The key is that you can show your work and are fluent enough to discuss your approach to development when using the framework.

Working closely with other developers, you will work on a range of innovative and challenging projects that have real world impact. Daysix has a particular focus on healthcare, with a reputation for delivering solutions into the NHS, directly impacting the lives of both clinicians and patients. Our success has come from a deeply inquisitive culture that seeks to understand the context of the problems we solve. 

You will work on both Native (e.g. our Major Trauma App) and web apps. You will also be part of shaping our next generation clinical data capture platform that we are developing in collaboration with a number of national agencies.

We are a self-motivated, talented and down-to-earth team of developers and designers who believe in making good things, pushing ourselves to do our best work in a spirit of collaboration.

Full-time:  35 hours per week

Salary: £30,000 – £50,000 dependent on experience

If you’re a motivated and experienced UX designer and would love to be part of a team creating and delivering excellent software and web projects, then we’d love to speak to you.

We’re at an exciting stage of our development as a company. Operating heavily in the healthcare sector, we have a strong reputation in Scotland for delivering great work and a client base that provides us with a range of challenging and meaningful projects. We have a brilliant team of designers and developers  who want to push further and increase the quality of our work and are looking for a dedicated UX designer to help us achieve that. 

At Daysix, we are a passionate, talented, and down-to-earth team who believe in making good things and pushing ourselves to do our best work—all in a spirit of collaboration. We serve clients across the public, private, and third sectors in Scotland, the UK, and beyond with our combined digital disciplines.

About you and the role

We are looking for someone who loves to get really close to the problem and understand the challenges and opportunities, in order to create great design solutions and user experiences for our projects. Someone who gets a kick out of translating client requirements and research into effective designs, collaborating with developers and designers to bring them to life.

You have a strong ability to grasp complex concepts and contexts. We’re anticipating the candidate to be a more seasoned professional with extensive UI/UX experience, particularly within the healthcare sector but we’d be open to hearing from more junior designers with a solid portfolio and the ability to quickly adapt.

You will take ownership of requirements gathering, engaging intuitively and effectively with stakeholders. You’ll lead the design phase, shaping our approach to design and fostering a culture of continuous learning.

At Daysix we are proud of our people-focussed culture and are committed to the training and development of our team members ensuring that there will be opportunities for you to grow and develop in this role.

  • Knowledge of front-end development technologies and their impact on design decisions.

  • Creative approach to generating innovative design solutions that meet user needs and business goals.
  • Demonstrated success in improving key performance indicators such as user engagement, conversion rates, and retention.
  • Capacity to lead initiatives that result in tangible improvements to product design and user experience
  • Strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and clients
  • Ability to deal with ambiguity and react quickly in an evolving and fast paced environment.
