What the job involves
- As a Lead Product Designer, you will be responsible for the outcomes, quality, consistency, and effectiveness of Product Design within one of our product Pods
- At Accurx, Product is organised into three Pods, which are groups of cross-functional product teams brought together based on the product capabilities they manage.
- Within a Pod, there are typically three Product Designers, comprising a mix of mid-level and senior designers, who are embedded as members of the Podâs cross-functional teams
- You will collaborate closely with the Group Product Manager and a Technical Leader as a trio of leads, working in alignment to ensure the Pod and its teams achieve their goals and objectives
- You will play an active role in identifying and understanding the problems we tackle and shaping the solutions we create, so that ultimately, everyone involved in a patientâs care â including the patient â can communicate effortlessly with one another
- Formally manage the product designers who work in your Pod and take responsibility for them achieving their teamâs goals and delivering design output inline with the high standards our users deserve
- Collaborate with relevant stakeholders to develop and refine a clear, evolving vision for the future of your product area, enabling you to guide the designers in your Pod towards achieving it
- Leverage your strong expertise in user-centred design principles, user experience design, interaction design and product strategy to provide input and guidance, helping achieve high-quality design updates
- Help the designers in your Pod develop their work from goals, through concepts, to interfaces and deliverables. Ensuring alignment in the chosen direction between all layers of the business
- Champion a system-first approach to designing experiences and interfaces. Making time and resources available within your Pod for maintaining and updating the system
- Participate in improving collaboration, and ways of working across your Pod. So that all relevant disciplines can contribute their expertise in a way that delivers the best possible product updates for our users and our business
- Nurture the designers you manage to grow professionally and build the skills necessary to be successful members of the product design team
- Support the design community by contributing to regular design team sessions to foster collaboration, share knowledge, and strengthen the design culture

Our take
Communication between patients and nurses/doctors has typically happened via telephone call or post. This outdated technology is costly and doesn't provide a great experience. Accurx solves this problem with its communication and collaboration platform.
Accurx is building tools that allow GPs and other healthcare providers to communicate more efficiently with their patients and with each other in order to deliver top-quality care. Its products are now used in over 95% of GP practices. This is testament to the value of Accurx's platform.
Since raising considerable funding, Accurx has been focused on growing its team and developing its products, including batch messaging between clinics and patients, to help care sites ease the burden of long wait lists and understaffing. With these challenges continuing to mount for the health system, Accurx is likely to remain in high demand for the foreseeable future.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Accurx
- Each health system is made up of a diverse workforce, serving 100% of the population. We are building for them, not us. We can only transform health systems if we build a diverse team, rich with different backgrounds, opinions and personalities.
- We particularly welcome applications from those who are significantly underrepresented in the technology sector, such as women, trans people, non-binary people, people with disabilities and people from black and underrepresented ethnic communities.
