Senior UX/UI Designer
📍Manchester (Hybrid, up to 4 days WFH) | 💰 £50k-£65k DOE Street Group is one of the fastest-growing PropTech companies in the UK. We want to be the leading creator of delightful experiences for everybody involved in buying, selling, renting and letting property, regardless of their involvement, to improve the industry for everybody by elevating UK Estate Agencies through world-class technology. We’re now looking for a Senior UX Designer to join our Spectre team, to help take our multi award-winning, instruction generation tool, that has generated over £50 billion worth of instructions for clients, generating an average return on investment for them of over 3000% - to the next level. We want someone who is tired of the "feature factory" grind and wants to work somewhere where design isn't just a department - it's a competitive advantage. If you look at most UX job ads, you see a laundry list of requirements. We prefer to tell you how we actually operate so you can decide if this is the right environment for you.
- In many companies, a PM writes a brief, hands it to a designer, who hands it to an engineer. That is not us. At Street Group, you’ll be a strategic partner helping define what we build, not just what it looks like.
- Our users rely on us to run their businesses, so they love talking to us. You can spin up a call and validate a prototype instantly. We don't guess; we ask.
- We don’t believe in rigid, box-ticking processes. Sometimes you need a deep discovery phase; sometimes you just need to trust your intuition and ship. We trust you to know the difference.
- Partner with your PM and Engineers to shape the roadmap and decide what we build next (proactive, not reactive).
- Jump on calls with agents using Spectre or visit them in-branch to understand pain points and test new workflows.
- Move from low-fi sketches to high-fidelity, polished prototypes in Figma.
- Facilitate workshops to synthesise research or ideate solutions.
- You want to work on complex, high-converting marketing journeys within Spectre, understanding why a feature matters to an agent's bottom line.
- You think from first principles and don't just apply "standard" patterns blindly. You ask questions that narrow down the solution space and aren't afraid to challenge the status quo.
- You want to ship work that is polished, intuitive, and sets a new standard for the industry.
- You prefer a strict, repetitive rhythm or a linear process without ambiguity, as you will find our pace stressful.
- You prefer to design in a silo. We challenge each other constantly to get the best result, so if you don't like engineers or PMs questioning your process, this isn't the place.
- You need to be told exactly what to do. We provide support, but we need people who see a problem and proactively chase the solution.
- Experience: You have roughly 5+ years of Product/UX Design experience (SaaS or complex product experience is a bonus).
- Tooling: You are fluent in Figma and know how to use and maintain design systems.
- Research: You are comfortable conducting your own user research and usability testing.
- Communication: You can articulate why you made a design decision to an engineer or a stakeholder.
