Job Description:

Lead Product Designer - Fintech

London (Hybrid) | Full-time | Permanent

I’m working with a fast-growing global fintech that’s looking to hire its first in-house Product Design Lead, someone ready to build and own the entire design function across product, UX/UI, documentation, and visual brand identity.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a profitable, scaling company where design has executive-level visibility and real impact. You’ll lead everything from foundational product journeys to API clarity and marketing visuals, all while setting the strategy and staying hands-on.

What you'll be doing:

• Build and lead a high-performing design team across product, UX, and visual design
• Own and evolve the user experience for a flagship B2B fintech platform
• Work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, and Marketing to deliver consistent and elegant experiences
• Oversee and improve developer-facing API documentation
• Create scalable design systems and workflows that grow with the company
• Champion feedback, experimentation, and a strong design culture across the org

What we're looking for:

• 2+ years in a senior or leadership design role
• Full-stack design skills across UI/UX, documentation, and visual design
• Strong Figma chops and the confidence to get into the details
• Proven experience leading or mentoring design teams
• Experience in B2B, SaaS, or fintech is a plus
• Clear communication skills and ability to operate cross-functionally at pace

What’s on offer:

• up to £85,000
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off
• Private healthcare cash plan (dental, physio, therapy support)
• A clear path for progression with investment in your growth
• Hybrid working – 3 days in a beautiful central London office

This is a rare chance to shape a function from the ground up in a well-established, globally-operating fintech. If you're excited by ownership, impact, and great design - this one’s for you.
