UX Product Designer

Location: Manchester City Centre

Join our team of passionate Zutonites and help transform the car finance experience with simplicity and integrity.

Since our journey began in 2006, we’ve grown to a team of over 550 people all driven by a shared purpose: to make buying a car transparent and hassle-free.

We know how important cars are in people’s everyday lives, for work, family and freedom, and that’s why we’re proud to help hundreds of thousands of customers every year. From day one, we’ve been redefining what success looks like, creating something special at Zuto: a business that leaves a lasting, positive legacy.

If you’re excited by understanding customers, experimenting with new ideas and using AI to completely rethink how quickly great experiences can be designed and tested, you’ll fit right in.

As our UX Product Designer, you’ll play a key role within our Growth team, helping turn customer problems and commercial opportunities into experiences we can rapidly put in front of real customers.

You’ll combine user research, voice-of-customer insight and behavioural data with a fast-paced optimisation mindset — taking ideas from initial concept to high-quality, testable prototypes in days rather than weeks.

AI will be a fundamental part of how you work. You’ll use it as a force multiplier to explore more ideas, accelerate prototyping and validate assumptions faster. You’ll also lead the development of an AI-enabled design system that helps dramatically reduce the time between having an idea and getting genuine customer feedback.

Success isn't measured by how many screens you design. It's measured by how quickly you help us discover what works and how effectively those learnings help more customers successfully finance a car through Zuto.
