About Content Design
How do we help people understand complex health information in ways that feel clear, useful and trustworthy? How do we design experiences that work for people with different needs, backgrounds and levels of confidence? How do we support more people to feel informed, included and empowered to take part in health research?
These are the kinds of challenges you’ll work on a Content Designer at Our Future Health.
This role goes far beyond writing copy. Content design at Our Future Health is about understanding problems deeply, using evidence and insight to shape decisions, and designing experiences that are not just usable, but useful — from journeys and navigation to information architecture, interaction flows and content strategy.
You’ll report into our Head of Content Design and be part of a growing content design practice where your work can make a real difference.
The role
As a Content Designer in a product squad, you’ll work closely with Researchers, Behavioural Scientists, Product Managers, Product Designers and Engineers to discover, define, develop and deliver our ambitious programme. Together, you’ll shape experiences that help people engage with Our Future Health in ways that feel simple, supportive and human.
