We’re Hiring: Junior Product Designer (UI/UX)

Are you a creative, ambitious designer looking to get hands-on with innovative projects and grow your career in a fast-moving SaaS company? MediaHQ is expanding into new markets, and we’re looking for a Junior Product Designer (UI/UX) who wants to play a real part in shaping the future of our product.

About Us

MediaHQ is the all-in-one media contacts database and press release distribution platform designed for PR and communications teams. Founded by entrepreneur Jack Murray in 2009, our mission is simple: help our customers connect their stories with the right audience.

Our software is the fastest and most accurate way to find journalists, build media lists in seconds, send press releases, and get results. With the most comprehensive media database in Ireland and the UK, and cutting-edge tools to make PR effortless, we’re proud of our strong record of innovation and growth.

Now, we’re building on that foundation as we expand into new markets—creating exciting opportunities to design, innovate, and deliver features that make a real difference to our customers.

Why This Role?

This is more than an entry-level role—it’s your chance to grow with us as we push into new markets. You’ll get hands-on experience designing for real-world problems, contributing to a product used by top PR teams every day, and helping us deliver new ideas from concept to launch.

You’ll join a diverse, collaborative Product team where your creativity and curiosity are valued. If you want to learn quickly, work on projects that matter, and be part of a company with ambition, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

You’ll assist our Product Team in:

  • Designing prototypes and high-fidelity UI mockups.
  • Managing and evolving our app’s design system.
  • Running and supporting user testing and workshops.
  • Delivering new features as part of our product roadmap.
  • Gathering and analysing user research (qualitative and quantitative).
  • Wireframing and writing specifications for new features.
  • Supporting new feature launches, including writing documentation and creating marketing and customer success assets.
  • Helping with customer support queries and QA testing.
  • Collaborating with Marketing to design assets, presentations, and website content.

What We’re Looking For

  • A growth mindset, curiosity, and a collaborative attitude.
  • A degree (or working towards one) in Digital Design, Interaction Design, Multimedia, UI/UX Design, or a related field.
  • A strong interest in SaaS product design and web app UI/UX.
  • Some knowledge of front-end technologies (JavaScript, CSS, HTML, Angular, etc.)—not essential, but useful.
  • Familiarity with modern design tools (Figma, Illustrator, Canva, etc.).
  • Good knowledge of UX research methods.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Bonus: experience with website builders (Webflow, WordPress) and productivity tools (Jira, Teamwork, ClickUp).

What You’ll Get

  • The chance to design and deliver innovative projects that help shape the future of MediaHQ.
  • Experience working on a SaaS product used by leading PR and communications teams.
  • A collaborative, ambitious culture where your ideas will be heard.
  • Room to grow—professionally and creatively—as we scale into new markets.

At MediaHQ, we practise growth mindset principles—we see possibility instead of limitation. If you’re excited to learn, experiment, and make an impact, we’d love to hear from you.
