Website Designer

A Website Designer creates websites which may include images, text, graphics and interactive abilities. You’ll prepare websites for a range of purposes from providing information to attracting customers. Website Designers liaise with clients to determine their needs and collaborate with other IT colleagues to develop the finished site. You may also need to work with other professionals such as graphic designers or copywriters.

Website Designers need to be able to communicate well with clients and understand their needs. You’ll also need to be able to work well as part of a team. Website Designers should be skilled in a range of design and programming software. It’s important that you are creative and can come up with unique design ideas. You’ll often be working to a deadline so time management is crucial.
