Company mission
To erase the work behind the work that is costing your business trillions and draining your teams of morale and productivity. At Perk, we call it shadow work.
Role
Who you are

- Solid knowledge of Figma and remote workshop tools such as FigJam or Miro
- Great understanding of usability principles, information architecture, visual hierarchy, and interaction design patterns (web and mobile)
- An autonomous and proactive mindset
- User-centred mentality (sounds obvious, but we really mean it!)
- Previous experience conducting user interviews and user testing. You will collaborate with our in-house research team for more complex research pieces
- Understanding of business goals and metrics, in order to work alongside product managers
- Solid communication skills to present and articulate your ideas, run small workshops and facilitate collaboration with your team
- Understanding of tech constraints and experience working with engineers
- Familiarity with design systems
- English language skills to a professional level, both writing and speaking
What the job involves

- We are currently looking for a Product Designer to join our Travel platform team for a one-year contract
- Business travel should be simple, intuitive, and delightful
- Our Travel platform sits at the core of the Perk experience, helping employees book and manage their trips seamlessly while giving travel managers the tools they need to maintain policy compliance and cost control
- As a Product Designer on the Travel platform, you'll collaborate with Product and Engineering partners to craft experiences that make business travel effortless for our customers
- You'll contribute to strategic initiatives across various areas of the travel experience—from search and booking to trip management and traveler support
- Your work will directly impact how millions of users interact with business travel, balancing employee satisfaction with company requirements while driving measurable business outcomes
- Work autonomously on the product experience of Perk’s Travel platform
- Work on the end-to-end design process, starting with the problem definition to participating in user research, sketching, prototyping and producing final designs
- Iterate on the existing product through constant research, validation, heuristic reviews and discovery, with the support of our UX research team
- Collaborate with your team in defining the product strategy and roadmap
- Contribute to “Suitcase”, our design system
- Don't worry, you won't be doing this alone! You’ll collaborate daily with product managers, UX researchers, content designers, engineers, data analysts, and a supportive team of product designers like yourself
- You’ll join a team of 50+ Product Designers, Content Designers and Researchers, with multiple nationalities, backgrounds and personalities
- You will be working in a highly collaborative environment where feedback, transparency, and support are at the core of what we do
- We rely on each other's strengths, and we save our competitiveness for the occasional after-work Pictionary game :)
- We value autonomy, proactivity, and creativity
- We create time, space, and opportunities for you to think, experiment, and share ideas
- And we firmly believe in prioritising impact over effort
- Your career and development are supported daily
- We will guide you through our Competency Framework, have regular development conversations, and offer a transparent career path - whether you will want to progress as an individual contributor or as a design manager

Salary benchmarks
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. Perk has built a platform free from micromanagement, creating an experience that puts business travellers first.
Perk'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 Perk has a product-market fit and is in scaling mode. The company has more than 2,000 customers, including scaleups like GetYourGuide, Breilting, Aesop and Medskin.
Recently rebranding from TravelPerk to Perk, the new name marks the next step in the company's transformation as it accelerates growth and broadens its mission beyond just travel management. The rebrand reflects its ambition to eliminate "shadow work" (hidden time-wasting tasks like filing expenses and chasing approvals), through AI-powered tools such as Perk Pay, which automates spend management and reduces fraud risks.
With dual headquarters in London and Boston as well as a growing footprint, Perk is evolving from a travel platform into a broader productivity partner for the modern business
