Senior Product Designer – Design Systems (Contract)

3-month initial contract | Fully Remote | £400–£450 p/d (Outside IR35)

You’ve led or contributed to major design systems before – now it’s time to own one at scale.

A global client is seeking a Senior Product Designer (Design Systems) to consolidate and modernise multiple systems into one unified, enterprise-ready design framework.

This is a hands‑on, specialist role for someone who thrives on crafting scalable design foundations, not just contributing to them. You’ll shape system architecture, build out components in Figma, ensure accessibility, and create clear documentation that enables consistent design across multiple products.

It’s a fast‑paced environment where your systematic approach and eye for detail will be critical – and your ability to work independently will be valued.
