At Online Dialogue, we know all too well that as a talented designer, you can work in many places. That's why we immediately answer the question ‘What's in it for me?’

If you're past the stage where you just deliver ‘pretty designs’ and instead want to make strides in the impact of your designs, then you've come to the right place. For us, design is the end product that shows we understand the customer. Validation in every Organization‘ is our credo, and we stick to it. In addition to being created in collaboration with colleagues from fields such as psychology and data, your designs are tested directly for effectiveness.

Together with three UX colleagues, you form the Design team. Cross-fertilization, knowledge sharing and innovation are standard terms you read in many vacancies. But we put our money where our mouth is: there is room at Online Dialogue to try the latest tools, develop your own algorithms and every Friday afternoon everyone comes together for the inspiration session.

What do we expect from you?

We are looking for a curious, driven designer who always wants to learn more and enjoys collaborating in multidisciplinary teams. A few salient points:

  • At least five years of relevant work experience as a visual (web) designer, UX/UI - designer or similar position with a focus on web/app
  • A diverse portfolio which you can explain and substantiate
  • You have a natural curiosity for new tools and techniques
  • And you are a hero in Photoshop and/or Sketch
  • While you consider aesthetics essential, it matters much more to you when your designs contribute to conversion growth
  • You it the ambition to become the best in your field and the drive to want to transfer this to your close colleagues and within the organization
  • Dutch and English fluency in word and writing in which you have the ability to interact and cooperate with different parties

Who are we?

Online Dialogue is the leading agency in the field of online optimization. Our approach is unique: we work in multidisciplinary teams with web analysts, psychologists, UX/UI designers, copywriters and developers. Combining data, (user) research and (online) behavioral psychology to improve the online dialogue is central but above all: ‘we prove everything’.

We like to share all that knowledge, skill and experience. Increasingly, we are setting up internal teams at the client's site that we guide from A to Z to become specialists. And that is how we end up somewhere: Marketplace, UPC Switzerland, COOP, Randstad, Travix, Beter Bed, KPN, Van der Valk, VodafoneZiggo, Efteling, ...

What can you expect from us?

  • We go for quality and we want that quality to improve daily. That means: daring to do things, learning but also learning to fail, evaluating and then getting even better.
  • As a UX/UI designer, you will be challenged by demanding clients, but certainly also by your bright colleagues.
  • You'll also learn all about the brain in no time, because our psychologists are always eager to point out how we humans are put together. And we also have a few stubborn analysts walking around who think just a tad differently about digital matters.
  • We breathe validation at Online Dialogue. Not only do we test continuously, we also conduct customer and top task research, analyze heatmaps and exploit every other opportunity to improve conversion at our clients.
  • But on top of that, it's just a lot of fun with us. You can already secretly experience that yourself because we have an open office concept. At our office, the ODhouse, you are always welcome as a digital professional idiot! Come and spend a day with us: measuring is knowing!

We offer

  • An appropriate salary
  • Commuting allowance
  • 25 vacation days
  • A pension plan
  • Internal & external trainings
  • Monthly drinks
  • Annual outing (surprise!)

What does a day at Online Dialogue look like?

After brewing a fresh cup of coffee, you take a seat at one of the office's flex spaces. You check your mail, make a daily summary and write a creative to-do list on your whiteboard desk. In the development tool you check how the development of the experiment codes is going. About two experiments you designed last week are ready in terms of code, and can be checked. You prepare the codes with an experiment tool, and check how your design looks in preview modes. The code is fine, so you contact the client to pass on the good news: another A/B experiment can be started!

It is 10:30 a.m. and time for the week's stand-up with all colleagues. Here we discuss the most important sales developments, the upcoming week's publications, and updates on current projects. After this stand-up, you are completely up to date and ready for your hypothesis session with the project team. In this session, the web analyst shares his latest data findings, which the psychologist based her hypotheses on. Together with the group, you think about possible design directions and make quick sketches on the whiteboard furniture. You end the meeting by setting deadlines for next week.

You roll out of your meeting in the direction of Meeting Plaza in Hoog Catharijne to have lunch with your colleagues. After lunch you are full of energy and start working on the experiment design. You take a screenshot of the current website, open it in Photoshop, and start converting the hypothesis into images. During this session you sit down with the other designers to get feedback on your first draft. Once you are completely satisfied you share the design with the psychologist. The psychologist thinks the design aligns well with the hypothesis, so you set it up for the client in the A/B experiment board on Trello.

You end your day by answering some final emails and writing down your hours. Your to-do list is completely checked off during the day: tomorrow is another day!
