Working at Mima
Design that connects us
Freelance Accessibility and Inclusive Design Consultants
At Mima, all our design work is led by great insight and understanding of the full range of peoples’ needs. As such inclusive design is core to how we work. We're looking to grow our pool of freelance Accessibility and Inclusive Design Consultants to support our team on upcoming projects. If you're open to flexible opportunities, we'd love to hear from you.

Join our pool of freelance Accessibility and Inclusive Design Consultants to support our team on upcoming projects.
Mima is a multi-disciplinary design agency, working on both access-specific projects, and providing inclusive design support to our wider work in human factors, wayfinding and user experience in the physical, social and digital spaces.
As a freelance Accessibility and Inclusive Design Consultant you'll consult on technical and more holistic/experiential projects, from supporting clients throughout RIBA stages and auditing buildings, websites and products, to building and facilitating user groups and delivering workshops.
We are looking for people who have:
- An accessibility background and an inclusive design approach to project delivery. You might be a consultant, have design experience or have previously worked with policies and procedures that promote equity for all.
- Solid technical knowledge surrounding access and inclusion legislation and guidance, and which documentation to apply to specific design situations. Importantly, you should be able to discuss and challenge physical accessibility decisions within the built environment.
- NRAC and IAAP qualifications, or similar, are highly desirable but not essential.
- We are great believers in the value of lived experience of disability in the design process. You having your own lived experience is highly desirable but not essential.
To apply, please email your CV and a cover letter to: Emily Yates
