A web designer is responsible for creating the design and layout of a website or web pages. Unlike web developers, who specialise in creating new websites' structures and the code that forms these, web designers tend to focus on the visual aspects of a site, such as its layout and its usability. However, there can be crossover between these two roles.

Typical duties include:

meeting clients to discuss their requirements and agree a brief
producing sample sites
keeping clients up to date with the progress
research user journey needs
testing site functionality and usability
demonstrating and receiving feedback about draft sites
keeping up to date with design trends and technological, software and accessibility developments
advising clients on search engine optimisation
designing graphics and logos
digital retouching and image editing
providing training and/or support once the site is signed off.
As a web designer, you could work in house, where you’ll work on projects for your own employer, or freelance, when you take on projects for a number of clients. In both scenarios, there can be pressure to meet deadlines and you may need to work extra hours.

Graduate salaries
According to JobTed, in-house entry-level web designers tend to earn around £19,000 and pay can increase to around £36,000 if you progress to a senior web designer role. Salaries are likely to be higher in London, according to Web Design.

Typical employers of web designers
Software companies.
IT consultancies.
Specialist web design companies.
Media and entertainment organisations.
Large corporate organisations.
Local and government organisations.
Charities.
Universities and other education providers.
Self-employment/freelance work is often possible once you have experience. You could also work as a contractor, taking on projects consecutively for a range of organisations.

Vacancies are advertised by careers services, by specialist recruitment agencies and on national and local job sites.

Qualifications and training required
There are routes into web design for both university graduates and school leavers.

For jobs advertised to graduates, employers are likely to seek a degree in digital media design, graphic design or a related subject.

If you’re a school leaver wanting to go into web design, look out for web designer apprenticeships.

Experience is important for both graduates and school leavers. Aim to create a portfolio of your best work and be ready to talk about web design projects you’ve worked on.
