 Build a Brilliant Future with Corix, a Hiscox Company!

The Senior UX Designer – Insurance Platforms role at Corix, a Hiscox Company, is responsible for the end-to-end design, development, and continuous improvement of user experiences that power critical insurance technology workflows, including submissions, quoting, binding, issuance, and policy maintenance. This role focuses on creating intuitive, scalable, and component-driven design systems that support brokers, underwriters, and internal teams while driving efficiency and consistency across operations. 

Core responsibilities include leading UX design for insurance product configurations, administrative tools, and underwriting file management, ensuring seamless workflows and reduced friction for both external and internal stakeholders. The Senior UX Designer will translate complex insurance processes into simple, usable experiences, partnering closely with Product Managers, Engineering, and business teams to ensure designs are validated, feasible, and aligned with business outcomes. 

This position plays a critical role in shaping how software functions and ships—designs are required before development can occur.

We leverage agile, outcome-based delivery with cross-functional teams aligned to key business capabilities and shared architectural standards.

• Define UX patterns, interaction models, and guidelines that minimize friction and standardize workflows across broker, underwriter, and operations experiences. 

• Create high-quality artifacts—including user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and detailed UI specifications—to guide engineering implementation. 

• Collaborate with Product and Engineering to ensure designs are feasible, accurately implemented, and continuously iterated on based on user feedback and performance data.
