Strategic Designer (UX/UI)

Open 46d

About Flying Bisons

Flying Bisons is a leading Strategic Design & Digital Consulting company based in Warsaw, with projects across Europe and the Middle East. Our mission is to help our clients Unleash Digital Potential™.

We work at scales where real impact happens: enterprise platforms, government services, and corporate ecosystems used by millions of people. Our projects include national workforce platforms (Qiwa, Ajeer), education ecosystems (Madares), major banks (Bank Pekao, Alinma), global telecoms (Ooredoo, Salam), and international brands (KFC, Hebe, NaTemat, Enel-Med).

Our uniqueness comes from going beyond design craft. As we wrote in our manifestos - Strategic Design - Manifest and Strategic Design - The Future of Design - design craft is only 10% of success. The other 90% - the Invisible 90% - is about navigating politics, aligning stakeholders, and protecting fragile visions until they reach reality.

That’s why we’re building the discipline of Strategic Design - and we want you to be part of it.

Now we’re looking for Strategic Designers - the changemakers who lead our projects from the very beginning through launch, turning complexity into clarity and vision into reality.

Why this role matters

As Flying Bisons shifts further toward strategic design, the Strategic Designer role is becoming the backbone of our delivery model. Strategic Designers lead the entire flow - from initial offer, research, strategy, concept, and validation through UX/UI design and development support.

They are the frontline project owners: the people who protect the vision, navigate politics, structure complexity, and ensure projects land successfully in the real world.

You’ll be supervised by a Partner and supported by the Delivery Director - but the project’s success will be yours to own.

Scope of services

  • Leading high-stakes projects end-to-end, from framing the challenge to launch readiness.

  • Structuring complexity into actionable plans, using frameworks like the Project Pyramid.

  • Managing and aligning diverse stakeholders, including C-level executives, ministries and enterprise teams.

  • Navigating politics: knowing when to negotiate, compromise or stand firm.

  • Bridging business, design and technology, speaking the language of each.

  • Guarding the design vision against organizational chaos, ensuring it reaches users intact.

  • Collaborating with stream leaders, researchers, designers and developers to deliver measurable impact.

What we are looking for

  • Solid background in UX and/or UI design, craft foundations are non-negotiable.

  • Experience with large-scale projects, such as enterprise platforms, government services or complex corporate ecosystems.

  • Strong business literacy, with the ability to connect design decisions to strategy.

  • Excellent facilitation, communication and storytelling skills.

  • Resilience and calmness under pressure.

  • Proficiency in English, C1/C2.

Why join Flying Bisons

  • Work on high-stakes, high-impact projects, including ministries, banks, telcos and global brands.

  • Be part of a team pioneering the discipline of Strategic Design.

  • Collaborate directly with C-level leaders, governments and enterprises.

  • Grow beyond design craft into a role AI cannot replace.

  • Accelerate your career in an entrepreneurial, elite, high-performance culture.

Cooperation terms

  • B2B cooperation for independent contractors.

  • Suggested commercial range: 20 000 to 25 000 PLN net + VAT per month, depending on experience, expertise, scope and availability.

  • Remote cooperation.

  • Cooperation in an Apple and Google Workspace-based environment.

  • Access to selected project tools, systems and environments where required for project delivery, security or client compliance.

  • For long-term B2B collaborators, there may be an option to purchase selected benefits, such as a MultiSport card or enel-med medical packages, on preferential group terms, subject to provider availability and applicable conditions.

  • Possibility to cooperate with experienced specialists from strategy, design, research, product, analytics, technology and delivery areas.

  • The cooperation is based on agreed project outcomes, delivery quality and clear communication.
