Job Description

Your new role: Product Designer

Are you a creative dynamo with a flair for design and an eye for detail? If you thrive in a fast-paced user-centric environment where your creativity and organisational skills are equally valued, this role is for you.

As a Product Designer at Global, you’ll wear multiple hats - combining your passion for brilliant user experiences with the ability to design simple end-to-end flows for complex problems. You’ll work with our most exciting and innovative products, driving initiatives on the roadmap from concept to completion.

Key Responsibilities

• Discovery & research (25%): You’ll dive into user behaviour, needs, and pain points through interviews, surveys, and all kinds of creative research. Your mission? Uncover golden insights that guide killer design decisions.
• Design (50%): This is your playground! You’ll craft intuitive interfaces, pixel-perfect visuals, and engaging user flows that are functional and stylish. From wireframes to high-fidelity mockups, you’ll turn complex ideas into beautiful, human-centered designs.
• Prototyping and user testing (25%): Time to bring ideas to life! You’ll build interactive prototypes, test them with real users, and iterate. Fail fast, learn faster - make sure what we build actually works for the people who matter most: our customers.

What You’ll Love About This Role

• Think Big: Every day is an opportunity to push boundaries, working across departments to bring fresh ideas to life.
• Own It: Take charge of projects from start to finish, delivering exceptional experiences across Global’s tech.
• Keep it Simple: Whether it’s a flow, screen, or microcopy, you always aim to remove the clutter, streamline the experience, and make the user journey feel effortless.
• Better Together: Collaborate with a dynamic team on advertising that span all our platforms—on-air, online, and more.

What Success Looks Like

In your first few months, you’ll have:

• Understand our customer’s and user’s needs, running discovery and research to truly empathise with their experience
• Sketch ideas and shape concepts for the big-ticket items on the product roadmap
• Learn the product inside out and implement quick wins
• Test and learn from your prototypes, taking feedback and optimising features to make them work harder and deliver more
• Delivered multiple projects, with your work shining across Global’s channels
• Collaborate with our tech and commercial teams, making yourself known as a design expert and helping to build a brilliant culture to work in

What You’ll Need

• UX & UI design expertise – You’ve got a strong grasp of human-centered design, visual hierarchy, and layout, plus you know your way around Figma.
• User research – Comfortable supporting interviews, usability tests, and making sense of user data to inform design decisions.
• Prototyping – Whether it’s low-fi wireframes or real, coded and clickable demos, you know how to bring ideas to life quickly.
• Design systems – You understand how to use and contribute to design systems for consistency and efficiency.
• Cross-functional collaboration – Experience working closely with PMs, engineers, and other teams to ship great products.
• Feedback friendly – Able to give and receive constructive critique like a champ (and know when to push back or lean in).
• Optimistic problem solver – You see design challenges as puzzles waiting to be cracked (with style) and collaborate brilliantly with your team to make it happen
