Product Designer

Remote-friendly, with London preferred but open to candidates across the UK and nearby European time zones

Salary: Up to £60,000

Level: Roughly 5 years’ experience

I’m working with a profitable, fast-growing business in the culture and commerce space, hiring a mid-weight Product Designer. It is an ecommerce business, but not in the usual sense.

The work sits across a few different product streams. Some are built around limited releases, scarcity and high-consideration purchases. Some are closer to traditional catalogue commerce, with a much larger supply of available work. There are also early-stage discovery products being shaped around recommendation, conversation and better ways for people to find what they might want to collect.

So the role needs someone who can think across more than one kind of product experience. You might be working on a launch mechanic one week, a content-heavy discovery journey the next, then a more functional commerce flow after that. The common thread is that the design needs to be useful, elegant and commercially aware without becoming generic.

The role will include:

• Designing polished web and mobile journeys across discovery, browsing, launch, purchase and post-purchase experiences
• Improving more traditional ecommerce flows
• Creating content-heavy product and editorial experiences where hierarchy, storytelling and conversion need to work together
• Supporting early-stage discovery and recommendation products, including more conversational and personalised ways for customers to find work
• Translating customer insight, data, testing and feedback into better design decisions
• Designing within technical constraints across several platforms and front-end setups
• Contributing to the design system so the product feels consistent and is easier for engineers to build
• Preparing clear design rationale, specs and handover for engineering
• Bringing a high level of visual craft to typography, spacing, layout, interaction detail and overall finish

The right person may come from design-led ecommerce, marketplaces, luxury, fashion, resale, editorial products, ticketing, cultural platforms, drops, auctions or high-consideration consumer products. A strong digital product agency background could also work, as long as you can show real ownership and not just final visuals.
