Senior Manager User Experience

UX Design Manager / Senior UX Design Manager

London (4 days a week onsite)

£100,000 – £140,000 DOE + Benefits

We’re partnering with a global SaaS company operating in a highly complex, data-rich environment, looking to hire a UX Design Manager to lead a growing team and shape the next generation of their core product offering.

This is a pure management role, leading a team of 8 designers across London and North America, with responsibility for driving UX quality, team development, and design strategy across a critical product line.

The Role

You’ll lead design for a key platform that is evolving from an internal-facing system into a customer-facing product, enabling users to manage and configure services autonomously.

This is a high-impact piece of work, involving:

• Complex workflows
• Data-heavy interfaces
• Scalable design system implementation
• Long-term product evolution (multi-year roadmap)

You’ll work closely with product, engineering, and research to define problems, shape solutions, and ensure a consistently high standard of UX output across the team.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Managing and mentoring a team of UX/UI designers across multiple locations
• Driving UX strategy across a complex SaaS product
• Partnering with product and engineering to shape direction, not just deliver requirements
• Embedding strong UX practices, processes, and ways of working
• Facilitating workshops and aligning cross-functional teams
• Championing user-centred design across the organisation
• Supporting the evolution and adoption of a design system
• Contributing to hiring and scaling the design team over time

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience managing and growing design teams
• Background as a hands-on designer earlier in your career
• Strong experience in B2B SaaS, enterprise tools, or complex platforms
• Experience designing for dashboards, data visualisation, and workflow-heavy products
• Ability to operate strategically while maintaining a high bar for execution
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
