Product Designer

Goodlord

United Kingdom · Full-time · Entry

❗Note: This is a mid level Product Designer role so would suit someone who has the experience and confidence to work autonomously, but who is still keen to learn from our more senior team members!

📍Location - this is a hybrid role based in our London office (2 days a week in the office, 3 days wfh/office)

Our mission:

Two in five people in the UK rent their homes. Our mission? To provide them with the best renting experience in the world 🌎
We started Goodlord because we wanted to make renting simple and transparent for everyone involved: the agent, the landlord, and the tenant. We knew Generation Rent would lead to more tenants, with higher digital expectations and we were confident we could provide a solution 🏠
Like all scale-ups it's been a bit of a rollercoaster journey, but we're now stronger than ever, with around 3,000 letting agents using the platform, exciting and varied products and 300+ Goodlordians across the group supporting the mission! 💚

The Opportunity:

Collaborate with Product Managers to understand user needs and contribute to product strategy
Conduct user research to gain insights into user behaviours and inform your design decisions
Create both high and low fidelity designs to guide engineering implementation
Review implemented features, ensuring they meet quality standards and provide a consistent user experience
Proactively identify opportunities to enhance existing designs through UX audits and data analysis, contributing to ongoing product improvement

What we need from you:

Have a portfolio of work demonstrating substantial end-to-end experience designing web-based applications
Are a strong visual designer who combines typography, colour, space, hierarchy, etc. to create aesthetically pleasing designs
Are well-versed in web design best practices and understand when/why to employ existing patterns vs going custom
Put the user at the centre of your design process by conducting user research and analysing behavioural data to understand their needs
Are proficient with industry design tools such as Figma (what we use), Sketch, Photoshop, or Illustrator
Are a clear communicator who is able to explain the rationale behind your design decisions, and give and receive constructive feedback

What's in it for you:

🚀 Grow with Goodlord: your development is important to us, that's why we are Great Place to Work - certified. Have a goal in mind? Share it with us and you can use your £1000 annual development fund to support it. We guarantee you'll learn loads and develop both personally and professionally at Goodlord too!
💕 Your well-being matters: bi-weekly coaching with Sanctus to provide Goodlordians with a safe place to talk and support your mental health
🌴 25 days holiday (plus UK Bank holidays) plus 1 day per full holiday year up to 32 days: We believe regular breaks are essential for well-being and we encourage (some may say expect!) all Goodlordians to take full advantage of their annual leave entitlement
🤗 Supporting your family: we offer Goodlordians of all genders a generous 3 months of fully-paid time off to look after their new arrivals
🤩 Our team: we're an energetic, sociable, and talented bunch who are super passionate about what we do and determined to make a difference. We're all in it together, we learn from each other, we're genuine and we don't have time for politics
