About The Role Are you looking for an opportunity to use and develop your design experience working on a complex and meaningful product used by tens of thousands of professionals?

We're on the hunt for a Product Designer to help improve and extend our product functionality and user experience. You'll work in a fast-paced growing environment helping to deliver customer improvements at pace, and we need someone who can balance short-term pragmatism with long-term ambition.

Working alongside two other Product Designers, this is a great opportunity for someone who wants to input into our overall product design vision, improve our design processes, and provide end-to-end design support to our engineering teams

What You'll Do Working closely with our Product & Engineering teams you will be completing UX and UI design activities across the software development lifecycle.

• Take briefs from Product Managers and deliver logical, scalable and consistent design work that meet requirements and work within technical constraints.
• Help Product Managers and Engineers understand different solutions to problems, educating where necessary on the strengths and benefits to different approaches.
• Use your expertise to regularly provide ad hoc design guidance and advice to Engineers.
• Contribute to our growing UI kit and ensure greater consistency by using it over time.
• Suggest changes to our design process in an environment where your opinion will be heard.

About You

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience in discovery and/or validation of design concepts with users e.g. usability testing.
• Basic technical awareness (e.g. HTML/CSS/front-end frameworks and data) to be able to understand technical concepts in conversation with Engineers.
• Prior experience, or awareness, in designing for accessibility.
• Awareness of basic resource management principles (time, management, scheduling, budgets) or ERP/ HCM software (e.g. Workday, Salesforce)
• Familiarity with UX laws, heuristics, and principles and the ability to apply them to make more informed design decisions.
• Experience using data to evaluate and iterate on designs, such as interpreting usage patterns, experiment results, or customer feedback trends.

What You'll Get

Working Details This is a full-time role (37.5 hours per week). We typically work from 09:00 - 17:30 from Monday to Friday, though we can be flexible around this, just let us know. If you'd like a flexible working arrangement, please just let us know in your application.

We're ideally looking for someone in/around Edinburgh. We're making the most of hybrid working, so you won't need to come into the office everyday (unless you want to!).

We don't mandate required office time, but we find that most of the team enjoy working from home 2-3 days a week, and come into our office to connect with each other, make use of space, and for meetings.

Join the team! Equality of opportunity is more than just a responsibility: we believe it's a huge advantage to welcome a variety of experiences and perspectives into the team. Diversity is a great asset and, as such, we strongly encourage applications from any background.

Everyone here is growing personally as the company grows, so if that sounds like something you'd like to be part of, we'd love to see your application. The deadline for applications is Tuesday 31st March, 5pm.

Please note the successful candidate for this role will be subject to background checks and will have an opportunity to declare anything to us beforehand.
