About the roles
Executive Assistant (Edinburgh)

Junior Designer (Edinburgh, Hybrid or Remote)
With a minimum of 2+ years of experience working in an agency. Similar to the above we’re looking for thinkers and problem solvers, not just software or channel-specific specialists.

Upcoming UX consultancy vacancies
Over the next 6-18 months we’ll also be looking to hire more UX consultants. These roles will be aimed at experienced practitioners who are willing to manage and/or collaborate across a number of projects. In the meantime, if you’re an experienced UX Designer or Consultant, who is seeking a short-term contract, get in touch. As we have a number of upcoming opportunities that could be suited to someone with extensive agency-side or freelancer/contractor experience.
Working at Border Crossing UX
As a lean micro-company that delivers niche, and high-end consultancy services, everyone who works for us need to maintain the highest possible quality standards. That’s not just an empty statement – we really mean it, and have the track-record and outcomes to prove it. Time is our scarcest resource. So for all of these roles the successful candidates will need to be able to accurately estimate how long things will take, and as and when required and is appropriate, clearly communicate any delays or blockers. As given our size we tend to collaborate, contribute, and rely on each other on both client-facing and internal projects. In short, we’re all about performance, measurement, and continuous improvement.
So, if that sounds like a working environment you’d thrive in, and have the necessary experience to fulfil any of the roles detailed above, we’d love to hear from you.
