Role

Who you are

  • 5+ years working as a Product Designer
  • Experience working for a SaaS product (B2B)
  • Solid knowledge of Figma and remote workshop tools such as FigJam or Miro
  • Great understanding of usability principles, information architecture, visual hierarchy, accessibility and interaction design patterns (web and mobile)
  • Autonomy and proactivity to lead, plan and execute UX/UI design projects, end-to-end
  • User-centred mentality (sounds obvious, but we really mean it!)
  • Ability to plan and conduct user interviews and user testing
  • Understanding of business goals and metrics
  • Solid communication skills to present and articulate your ideas to multiple stakeholders, run workshops and facilitate collaboration with your team
  • Understanding of tech constraints and experience working with engineers

  • English language skills to a professional level, both writing and speaking

What the job involves

  • The TravelPerk Product Design team is looking for a contractor to lead a key business initiative
  • At TravelPerk, we work in “squads”—small, autonomous teams composed of full-stack engineers, a Product Manager, and a Product Designer
  • As a Senior Product Designer, you’ll take charge of design within your squad, while also collaborating with the wider Design team and contributing to our overall product strategy
  • We're looking for someone who can work beyond squad boundaries. You should be comfortable collaborating with other teams to ensure your work aligns with the overall product vision
  • You'll lead the Reporting squad, which takes care of displaying platform data to our users so they can analyze their spend
  • Work on the end-to-end design process, from defining problems to conducting user research, sketching, prototyping, and producing final designs
  • Iterate on the existing product through constant research, validation, heuristic reviews, and discovery, both autonomously and with the support of our UX researcher
  • Help the team elevate the quality of our interface, interaction patterns, and information architecture
  • Partner with the Staff Designer to ensure the new functionalities align with the overall product vision
  • Advocate for user experience best practices with different stakeholders

Our take

Although business travellers are often at the forefront of driving company growth, booking travel is typically a logistical nightmare as corporate travel tools are underdeveloped and stuck way in the past. TravelPerk has built a platform free from micromanagement, creating an experience that puts business travellers first.

TravelPerk's number of active users has grown year on year. Further, as well as more customers using the platform, those on it are using it more regularly. This is a clear signal that TravelPerk has a product market fit and is in scaling mode. The company has more than 2,000 customers, including scaleups like Revolut, Farfetch and Beyond Meat.

According to TravelPerk, its unit economics are strong already, which puts it in a strong position to grow without diluting itself too much through investment. The company is still innovating and said it is planning to release more products that will give the business traveller more freedom and flexibility than ever before. Its new Edinburgh hub and partnership with fintech unicorn Pleo, TravelPerk is undoubtedly committing to a period of scaling. Exemplifying this is its Series D funding of $104 million awarded in January 2024, which will boost TravelPerk's AI and automation capabilities to aid its growth.
