Welcome to the team
We’re so happy you’re here!

Hello, new designer!

What are UX Buddies all about?

Whether you were hired to a project or joined Visma via acquisition, we know that the first time in a new company can be overwhelming. To make sure you have a good start, we want to invite you to be part of our UX Buddy program.

Your UX Buddy is your go to person for everything design related and beyond. For example, your UX Buddy can introduce you to how we work with UX in Visma, get you going with our design language Nordic Cool, help you set up your tools, connect you with people or simply offer additional eyes and thoughts on design tasks.

By having a UX Buddy, our hope is that you will be integrated in the design community and Visma a little faster than if you had to do it all on your own.
