Your responsibilities will include:
Leading the innovation and strategy of services and platforms that underpin our internal user experiences.
Leveraging our delivery partners' latest technology and product roadmaps to ensure we design a service experience that always takes advantage of new available opportunities as they emerge.
Owning the end-to-end design of our operations platform – from internal user research, wireframing, and prototyping.
Partnering with the product team to identify user needs, conduct user testing, and incorporate feedback to iteratively improve designs.
Mentoring other members of the Unloan design team - fostering creativity, delivery excellence and maintaining design consistency across projects.
Your Skills & Experience
We're looking for a design leader who deeply understands user behaviour and interaction patterns and can create cohesive service experiences that work seamlessly across platforms and systems.

7+ years of proven experience in UX design, with a track record of delivering successful digital products or services.
Strong systems thinking and service design skills.

Strong leadership skills with the ability to inspire and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams.
Desired Skills:
Experience working in an Agile development environment.

You're a passionate, cultural shepherd -- you find it easy and fun to stay up-to-date with industry trends, best practices, and emerging design technologies to continuously elevate and influence Unloan's design standards across all the layers of the business.
You have problem-solving in your DNA, and don't shy away from working with others to share and solve complex problems.
A background in SaaS, or start-up organisations is advantageous.
