Design is the art of making the complex feel simple.
At Hemnet, that means turning a seller’s uncertainty into clarity, confidence – and clicks. Here, design helps Sweden’s home sellers capture the right attention with the perfect listing.
If you want to create experiences that feel smart, seamless, and genuinely human – for people in the middle of one of life’s biggest transitions – we have an opening for a UX Designer parental leave cover starting in January, for approximately one year.
☝🏽 Apply by November 5.
What You’ll Do
In the Sellers domain, we’re responsible for the entire selling journey – from the first thought of selling to a sold home, and all steps along the way. You’ll help our users to:
You’ll lead discovery, shape insights into experiences, and be a strong advocate for the user – balancing user needs with business goals and conversion. More specifically, you’ll:
We work in small, cross-functional teams of PM’s, developers, analysts, and UX designers. We collaborate closely with our users through frequent testing and a constant flow of qualitative and quantitative insights. Our approach mixes fast iterative product development with strategic projects that move from hypothesis to experiment and launch – always learning openly from our results.
Who You Are 🤩
Hello from your future manager 👋🏽
Hi! I’m Andreas, Head of UX at Hemnet. We’re now looking for a UX Designer to help us create the best possible experience for everyone selling their home – a role where you’ll combine strategy, research, and sharp UI design for a product used by millions of Swedes every week.
I lead a UX team of 13 full-stack designers and researchers – a group that’s both highly skilled and genuinely kind. We support each other, keep learning, and stay curious about topics like AI and how it can strengthen our design process. We work closely with Product, Tech, and Data in cross-functional teams, with a strong focus on creating real user value while balancing business goals.
As a manager, I’m ambitious and curious, and I love helping others grow. I try to create clarity and direction, while giving freedom and space for individual initiative. My colleagues describe me as driven and forward-thinking – but most importantly, as someone who truly believes in the power of the team.
What excites me most about this role is its impact: the seller experience sits right at the heart of both Hemnet’s user journey and business. I’m looking for someone communicative and confident leading through design – comfortable managing many stakeholders and driving initiatives from early discovery to polished UI. If you’ve also explored how AI can support design, that’s a big plus.
Why Hemnet?
For me, it’s the mix of heart and impact. We’re big enough to make things happen – but small enough to stay fast and creative. And maybe most importantly: people here care. About our users, about each other, and about building something truly great together.
We can’t wait to welcome you to our UX team!
A note on inclusion 💚
At Hemnet, we believe diversity – across gender, sexual orientation, ability, neurodiversity, cultural background, and life experience – makes us stronger. We welcome applicants of all identities and backgrounds.
If you meet most, but not all, of the criteria, we still encourage you to apply. We value curiosity, purpose, and a drive to learn and grow, just as much as your skills and experience.
Salary range
SEK 55.000 - 62.000

What You’ll Do
In the Sellers domain, we’re responsible for the entire selling journey – from the first thought of selling to a sold home, and all steps along the way. You’ll help our users to:
- Understand and choose the right exposure and benefits with a package (Hemnet Bas, Plus, Premium, Max)
- Purchase, publish, and track their listings in an easy and motivating way
- Feel confident at every step – no fine print required
You’ll lead discovery, shape insights into experiences, and be a strong advocate for the user – balancing user needs with business goals and conversion. More specifically, you’ll:
- Plan and lead research together with PM’s, developers, and analysts
- Design flows, prototypes, and interfaces that feel unmistakably Hemnet: clear, human, and simple
- Measure, test, and experiment – always with curiosity and humility
- Lead workshops, participate in design critiques, and contribute to our UX community

Who You Are 🤩
- A confident UX generalist who enjoys leading discovery and staying close to the craft of UI design
- A strong advocate for the user who can clearly explain trade-offs when conversion, revenue, and user value intersect
- Experienced in hypothesis-driven design, measurement, and experimentation – without losing sight of the bigger picture
- Fluent in both Swedish and English (spoken and written), and comfortable in Figma (or similar), prototyping, and design systems
- Bonus points if you’ve worked with e-commerce or checkout flows, content design, data-heavy dashboards, or explored AI in the design process
