At Global, the design team is fully embedded in various product streams while operating as a tight-knit, centralised unit. Our work spans a variety of products, so whilst consistency plays a crucial role, we still enjoy a high degree of ownership and autonomy in our work.

We apply a user-centric approach to complex problem-solving and collaborate with product owners, engineers, other designers and a wide range of internal and external stakeholders in a fast-paced environment.

  • Drive product discovery involving all key stakeholders in the process

  • Organise and facilitate stakeholder and user workshops 

  • Conduct desk and user research and turn your findings into actionable insights, process maps and user journeys.

  • Acting as the voice of the user and an advocate for design principles and design thinking across the department

  • Contribute to our design systems to ensure consistency and scalability

You’ll have these skills and experience

  • 5+ years of experience in Enterprise products/B2B/SaaS

  • Strong portfolio focusing on UX and User Research while showcasing a good set of UI skills

  • To stay on top of product complexity, your work must be well organised with a keen eye for details whilst maintaining a holistic view of larger user journeys 

  • A strong understanding of business and product metrics

  • Experience in testing and validating designs using qualitative and quantitative methods

  • Ability to drive decision-making across complex projects and multiple teams in fast-paced environments

  • Ability to articulate design decisions through clear, empathic communication

  • Excellent senior stakeholder management and negotiation skills

  • Experience navigating ambiguity, using your experience to drive forward and make decisions across intricate projects and diverse teams

In the first few months you will

  • Gain deep understanding of our products and drive product discovery meetings involving all key stakeholders 

  • Build strong relationships with key stakeholders, including product owners, analysts, engineers, and the design team.

  • Organize and facilitate your first stakeholder or user workshops
