Working as a ui/ux designer in Cambridge
Deep technology, semiconductors, biotech and research spinouts, with an unusual density of PhD-level hiring. A small market with high standards; housing is expensive relative to salaries, which surprises people moving from the north.
Most of the hiring in this list clusters around the Science Park, Milton and the Biomedical Campus. Location on a posting is not always literal — check whether a role is genuinely on site, and whether "remote" means remote within the country or remote from anywhere, because the two are priced differently.

UI/UX Designer pay and hiring, asked properly
What matters most in a UX portfolio?
Two or three case studies showing your reasoning, not twenty polished screens. Reviewers look for the problem, what you tried, what failed and what shipped. A portfolio of final visuals with no decisions in it reads as decoration.
Do designers need to know Figma specifically?
Effectively yes — it is the default, and most take-home exercises assume it. Knowing another tool is fine, but arriving without Figma fluency costs you time in tests that are already time-boxed.
Is UI/UX oversaturated?
The junior end is crowded. Roles asking for research skill, accessibility knowledge or design-system work are not, and those consistently take longer to fill — which is the clearest available signal of where demand actually sits.
