We are building a new digital product for small and medium-sized businesses, such as sole traders, tradespeople and local service providers. Many of these businesses still run on a mix of phone calls, messages, paper notes and spreadsheets. Our product brings the customer side of their business together in one place, so they can:

• Attract customers: get discovered and manage new enquiries and leads
• Quote: create and send clear, professional quotes quickly, often from a phone on site
• Invoice and get paid: create invoices, keep track of what is outstanding and follow up on payments

The product will be available as a mobile app and as a web application for PC and Mac, used for admin, reporting and record-keeping. Because the product is at an early stage, you help lay the foundations and shape the experience, from the first concepts all the way to launch.

We are looking for a UX/UI Designer who loves turning everyday business tasks into something simple, clear and pleasant to use. You join a cross-functional team with a product manager, frontend and backend developers and a data engineer, and you are the person who makes sure the product makes sense to the people who use it.

understand how business owners really work, and you use that knowledge to design mobile and web experiences that save them time. You combine strong design skills with the ability to explain your choices clearly to developers, product people and stakeholders.

• Do user research to learn how business owners find customers, quote for work and get paid, and use those insights to guide design decisions
• Create user flows, wireframes, mockups and prototypes for both mobile and web
• Design clear and efficient experiences for admin-heavy tasks, such as managing quotes, invoices and customer records
• Design trustworthy interactions for important moments, like sending a quote or recording a payment, so users always feel in control of what reaches their customers
• Build and maintain a consistent design system that works on both platforms
• Work closely with the product manager, developers and data engineer to shape the product direction, visuals and experience
• Make sure your designs follow brand guidelines and accessibility standards
• Keep improving designs based on user feedback and analytics

• Experience as a UX/UI or Product Designer, with a portfolio that shows your process as well as the end result
• A strong understanding of user-centred design principles
• Experience designing for both mobile and web
