Based on my extensive experience as a manager, I build UX teams, establish design processes and create user-centric operating strategies for international organizations. Creating recruitment profiles, figuring out where UX Design and Research fit in a product cycle, and establishing day to day rules and rituals for daily UX work can be daunting - this is where I come in. I'm available for short and long term engagements in Europe (mainly Germany and Poland) and other parts of the world.

Here's how it works:
1. Starting with your company profile analysis, I look for best practices both in and outside your industry.
2. I review your current design organization - designer and researcher profiles you already have, their workflow and tooling, and how they fit into your overall operating model - or propose a new one.
3. By interviewing key stakeholders depending on the design work that needs to be done, I figure out what type of designer would be a best fit.
4. I create a Recruitment Profile, highlighting the required skills, tools and salary levels for UX Designers and researchers that best fit your organization.
5. During interviews, I either deliver scripts with questions or participate directly and ensure the interviewee gets a fair shake by completing custom-tailored tasks.
Why I'm good at this!
I have many years of experience of working as a UX Designer, UX Researcher and UX Manager. I have participated in hundreds of designer and researcher interviews (on both sides of the table!) and built multiple design teams. By working in Germany, U.S., U.K., Poland, Sweden and Belgium, I've managed to accrue both technical and social knowledge about how modern UX best functions (and doesn't!) in product organizations.
How do we start to work together?
It's easy - simply contact me and I will give you a quick estimate. Don't worry - I don't charge for the initial consultation and all contractual obligations are always finalized in writing.
I am available for short and long engagements in Germany, Poland and other European countries.
