As Product Designer at Paddle, you’ll use your full range of skills from problem exploration, user research, running ideation sessions, prototyping, UX/UI design and working closely with the engineering team to make things happen.

Furthermore, you’ll need to think strategically about the future of the product and contribute to the further development of a scalable design system and process. You need to be a holistic problem solver who can look beyond and above pixels and contribute proactively at different levels.

You will sit in the product team who are responsible for making sure we build the best, customer-centred products at Paddle. As a team, we believe in ownership, autonomy and accountability. We work alongside engineering in multi-functional product teams which have a strong product manager and product designer who collaborate to reach the best solution.

What you’ll do

• Work closely with our product and engineering teams to further build out the Paddle platform, creating tools to help software businesses grow.
• Partner with product managers to define and evolve product roadmaps and work closely with engineers as you build, iterate on, and ship ideas.
• Be involved in user interviews and user testing.
• Design and prototype intuitive user interfaces.
• Work on building out features which make complex tasks + workflows simple and easy to understand for all levels of customers.
• Collaborate with designers across the organisation and use quantitative data and user and market insights to continuously improve our design processes, principles, and tooling.
• You will own the customer-facing experience, across both a complex platform used to run hundreds of software companies and a checkout product used by millions of consumers.

We’d love to hear from you if

• You have past experience designing software platforms and systems and have helped shipped products, ideally in the SaaS/B2B space.
• You have experience collaborating with other product designers, PMs, engineers, and partnering with cross-functional teams across the business.
• You have worked in a start-up environment, building products that solve real problems.
• You are able to clearly communicate design work and the rationale behind it and back it up with quantitative and qualitative user research data.
• You are a self-starter who can work through ambiguity and autonomously complete a task from start to finish with minimal oversight.
• You have experience (and understand the benefit) of prototyping before implementation using something like Framer (or even HTML & CSS).
• You have strong UI design skills (over multiple roles) using Figma (or similar).

Why you’ll love working at Paddle

We are a diverse team of around 120 people. We care deeply about enabling a great culture which is inclusive no matter your background. We celebrate our diverse group of talented employees and we pride ourselves on our transparent, collaborative, friendly and respectful culture.

We offer a full slate of benefits, including competitive salaries, stock options, pension plans, private healthcare and on-site mental health coaching sessions. We believe in flexible working and offer all team members unlimited holidays and 4 months paid parental leave regardless of gender. Plus we offer some not-so-standard, extra-fun benefits, which can include anything from joining the office football team, enjoying a board game night, taking up in-office meditation sessions or in-house massages. We host regular company get-togethers and quarterly socials. We have weekly catered lunches and of course, fully stocked fridges and cold brew on tap. We value learning and will help you with your personal development where we can — from constant exposure to new challenges and annual learning stipend to regular internal and external training.

Thanks for checking out the Product Design role at FIBR. We’re super excited to welcome a wonderful new team member to help us change the way SMEs access finance and grow our team.

About FIBR

Small businesses have always struggled to access finance. Traditional lenders typically make this process cumbersome, expensive, and full of hurdles, especially for small businesses. We are able to take this hassle out of the experience.

FIBR is a small Fintech company focussed on making SME lending fairer and a better experience and have recently obtained substantial funding for our expansion in Europe. Our vision is to become a pan-EU SME platform, starting in the UK and Netherlands, and we have the backing and partnerships to be successful! We have been developing our tech stack for 2.5 years. We consider ourselves as a Tech company that has built a finance product rather than a traditional FinTech. Especially at these challenging times, we’re on a mission to help SMEs. We streamline the application and servicing process for customers using state-of-the-art technology. We also use real-time data to create a more accurate picture and avoid the lengthy delays of traditional financers, all of which allows us to keep costs low and respond at lightning speed. At FIBR, we’re offering financing that’s as quick as the unsecured lenders, but as affordable as traditional lenders.

A brief overview of what you’ll be doing

As a Product (UX/UI) Designer at FIBR, you’ll be joining a small fast-moving team, so we’re looking for someone with a general appreciation of all things design across visual, experience, systems…

You’re comfortable taking the lead on early user research efforts, validating user pain points and the products we need to build. Our users include Founders, CEOs and CFOs, accountants and small business owners (to name a few) - we’re looking to create delightful, intuitive experiences for all of them.

We’re on the look-out for a motivated, analytical designer, with an aptitude for pixel-perfect layouts and experience with design systems. You’re always focused on the customer, but balance this with technical constraints and business goals. You’ll have at least 3-5 years of experience, ideally working in a start-up environment (fintech is a bonus!)

## Three reasons this role is great:

1. You’ll be following a UX process from ideation, wire-framing and prototyping, through testing, iteration and final design, you’ll help design mockups ranging from sketches to high fidelity prototypes in order to propose and evaluate how our product could best be improved.
2. If you’re looking to take ownership in a highly driven team - this is the opportunity for you. We have big ambitions for growth, move at a fast pace, and you’ll work autonomously with the close support of startup founders and senior managers who have done this before.
3. You’ll make a difference - we’re building a business that will provide SMEs with the ability to build their own businesses, with our help.

What will you do?

• Design interfaces for both web and mobile that are simple, elegant and easy to use. We want to make our users’ lives easier.
• Contribute to the development of the FIBR brand identity and design system.
• Partner with Product, Engineering, Risk, Ops and Marketing to work on the development of our MMP and website.
• You should have a good working knowledge of the best practices, tools and techniques across user-centred design, usability research and prototyping. You keep up-to-date with the latest trends in design and technology.
• You are experienced in product design, user interface and interaction design, visual design, storytelling, and prototyping.
• You’re happy to work collaboratively within a team but also solo.
• You understand that good design is not only about how things look, but how they work - it is more than fonts, colours and trends.
• You’re able to communicate design decisions and the rationale behind them throughout the company.
• You have a portfolio that displays your critical thinking and design excellence, both visual and product.
• You have empathy for customer needs, and you’re able to balance this with technical constraints and business goals.
• You are flexible; we’re a young startup and you’ll be designing lots of different things, fast.
• You’re a pro at Adobe XD and Figma, and have extensive experience with prototyping tools.
• You’re able to coordinate with and handover to engineers.
• You’re happy to conduct user research and usability testing to ensure all designs meet client and user requirements.
• You analyse all research and feedback to gain user insight – and incorporate this feedback into new designs.
• You’re passionate about solving problems and always identifying opportunities.

The nuts and bolts:

• You must be comfortable with moving quickly from wireframe to pixel perfect and polished final designs.
• Excellent communication skills whether it be in person, zoom, phone or email or smoke signal.
• Smart, inquisitive, and have a willingness to sink your teeth into the role.
• A self-starter who takes initiative.
• Resilient to fast-changing requirements.
• Fintech experience is a bonus, but not a must-have!

## What will you get in return?

• Competitive Salary based on experience
• Employee Pension Contributions
• A shiny new laptop
• Keep healthy with Vitality Health Insurance
• Generous leave policy (38 days leave, including bank holidays)

As a young start up, we are still working on how we reward our team so watch this space for upcoming benefits and perks!

Sound like the right place for you?

• Apply via the link or send us an email to [email protected] with the link to your portfolio, your resume and why you’d like to join us in 300 words
• We will review the profiles we receive and for those that stand out, we will set-up some calls so we can find out more about each other
• If we think we could be a match, we’ll ask you to complete a task and meet with another member or two of our team.

Description

Condé Nast is a global media company, home to iconic brands including Vogue, The New Yorker, GQ, Glamour, AD, Vanity Fair and Wired, among many others. The company’s award-winning content reaches 84 million consumers in print, 367 million in digital and 379 million across social platforms, and generates more than 1 billion video views each month.

The company is headquartered in London and New York, and operates in 32 markets worldwide, including China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico & Latin America, Russia, Spain, Taiwan, the U.K. and the U.S., with local license partners across the globe.

Our goal is to create a unified user experience for each of our brands and products which exemplify ux best-practices and put the user at the heart of the experience. We are building a multi-disciplined product design team to evolve these products. You will be part of that effort working within our B2B product space, specifically with Vogue Business, to sculpt memorable experiences that improve the engagement and loyalty of our users.

This role fits a highly collaborative, hands-on ux researcher with B2B product experience. You will have a passion for user centred design and data with an intense attention to detail. You must be an expert at using and analysing data together with your traditional ux-research skills to inform the iterative design process. You will be part of a small, but growing product design team and you’ll be involved at an exciting time of change and rapid iteration. This is a real opportunity to influence the look, feel and functionality of these heavy-weight brands and how they work for the user across multiple platforms.

You will have the chance to help define what we ship and how we ship it, ensuring design and the user have a voice at all points in the process. You’ll get a rare look at digital publishing around the world. You’ll be working with experienced people in product, editorial, engineering, data and design who’ve all succeeded in similar challenges. We have leadership buy-in, a clear strategy to execute, and the freedom to get on with it.

You will be responsible for conducting relevant research necessary for the different stages of product development, and you are always willing to try out new approaches to share and apply the findings of your research.
• You will conduct exploratory and strategic research, but you have experience in doing research in all the different stages of product development. Due to the nature of our products it would be advantageous to have experience of working with an international customer base.
• You will plan and facilitate scoping sessions for complex projects (multi-method, multi-stage) and align research activities to support stakeholder decision-making and action.
• You will support product teams at each level of the product development cycle from the more strategic to the more tactical. You are willing to shape the strategy of the product team by planning and conducting exploratory research when the users problems to solve aren’t defined yet. When those problems are known, you are able to help the teams to define the hypothesis in order to identify which issues to tackle first and align them to team objectives. Sometimes you’ll need to be taking care of the more tactical research to validate and test solutions that other members of the teams you support have designed.
• Our product teams are focused on improving the experience of our products and you will collaborate with them in order to deliver and guarantee an outstanding user-centric experience. You will be embedded in our cross-functional teams and work with them, supporting and leading the objective level research activities.
• You will proactively promote a data informed product research approach within the product teams, whilst continually advocating for the user.
• You will support the Research Lead and wider product design team to shape a culture of sharing actionable and prioritised findings to make ux research accessible and relevant for all.
• Provide deep, extensive analysis and insight using quantitative and qualitative analysis tools to analyse and understand visitor traffic sources, user behaviour, flow and conversion drivers as well as inform teams on how to improve the multichannel experience through heatmaps, session recordings and voice of customer.
• Standardise methodologies to bring efficiency, uniformity and timeliness to required insights.

Essential Skills & Requirements

• The ability to independently plan, lead, and execute large research projects with minimal assistance. Manage and deliver on multiple competing deadlines, with multiple projects; you know when and how to push back appropriately on stakeholder requests and deadlines.
• Good stakeholder management skills, setting expectations for stakeholder involvement and communication during projects including format and frequency. You know how to effectively collaborate, influence and contribute by finding common ground and building rapport.
• Highly organised with strong planning skills to ensure delivery of timely and accurate analysis supporting the development of our websites.
• Skilled at creating well crafted, clear, compelling deliverables. Adept at selecting a format for conveying findings and insights that is appropriate to the project, audience and desired level of detail. The ability to craft lean formats when required.
• Good working knowledge of several quantitative, generative and evaluative methodologies, and the confidence to know when to deploy and analyse studies using these methods.
• Numerical and analytical skills, capable of using multiple data sources to analyse complex problems, identify cause and effect and deliver insightful and practical research feedback.
• Good command of user testing/data tools like GA, HotJar and Userzoom. You believe in the democratisation of data.
• Agile environment experience, working collaboratively within a team as well as being self-led.
• Strong understanding of web usability & accessibility, digital trends & how websites are put together
• Excellent attention to detail, both in analysis and in communication and a lot of curiosity.

At Zoopla we want to help everyone make intelligent home decisions. We are building a team that will have the once in a career opportunity to re-imagine our industry.

The interesting stuff…

• You’ll be out in the field discovering just what a home is really worth to our millions of customers and consumers.

• You’ll drive insights and opportunities to multiple stakeholders across the business and work collaboratively with our cross-functional product teams. Whilst supporting and enabling Product Designers to do their own research.

• Turning insights into opportunities to solve customer problems and drive business value, is what you get out of bed for.
• You continually help the business to focus on the user. Getting up in front of the business to sing (not literally) about user behaviours and insights.
• You’ll work in both the B2B and B2C areas of the Zoopla business.

Why Zoopla…

• We’re serious about design but we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
• We are spiritually agile, not religiously agile.
• We strongly believe in the value of good design. We believe it is a primary differentiator in an increasingly crowded marketplace.
• We believe in the value of data. We run a team that is data informed. We think being data-driven is soulless and dangerous. Clean, confident, clear data combined with the insights of the team is what drives our decisions.
• We want to build small, collaborative, cross-functional teams that push each other to create elegant, simple solutions to difficult customer problems.
• No matter what the role we want everyone to be obsessed with getting inside the minds of our customers.
• How do you know we’re the best place for you?
• You strive to set the standard and are always looking to raise the bar and want to be surrounded by others who do so as well
• You enjoy knowing your customer
• You want to build things together, collaboratively with your team

**We believe energy should be better - for you and the environment. **

We’re a leading energy technology company providing a better experience for our customers through transparency, honesty and simplicity. Better for the planet, through real long-term investment in renewable generation and a low CO2 future. Better value, by throwing away the old business models of the “Big 6” and instead building a business that’s fit for the 21st century. We make energy green and flexible for consumers, with fair and transparent pricing. Through our home developed platform, cloud-based billing, and sophisticated use of data science, modelling and AI, we’re redefining what is possible in energy.

Our breakthrough Agile tariff has been widely reported as leading the way in energy innovation, and we’re passionate about fairness – we were first to uncover the widespread strategy of energy company tease and squeeze pricing and following on from this campaign, our CEO and Founder Greg Jackson presented evidence in favour of capping energy tariff prices before the bill committee in Parliament.

We already supply 100% renewable energy to over 1.5 million homes and over 12,000 businesses (including Arsenal FC and the Cardiff Blues to help them power their stadiums with 100% renewable energy) throughout Great Britain and we’re also the supplier behind M&S Energy. We’re award winning for our disruptive technology and are delighted to be the only energy supplier to pass the rigorous Which? customer service tests and be their only recommended energy supplier for 3 years in a row.

We recently secured over £300 million of investment from Origin, Australia’s largest Energy Company, to help us continue our mission. This will help power our growth into new markets, build more tech to make energy greener, and increase our investment in service and growth in our existing markets (the UK and Germany). You can read more about the impact of this investment here.
