Senior Product Designer

Job Description

Company mission

Flash Pack is looking to expand our design team!

Our mission is to create 1 million friendships through the power of travel and technology. We do that by having people go on a boutique adventure on their own, and pairing them with others doing the same thing.

We are location agnostic, though we meet in London every 6-8 weeks so you'll need to be able to travel there at your expense occassionally.

Who you are

• Outcome-focused - You naturally focus on the user and their problems, as opposed to the fine details of the solution

• Self-starting - You are comfortable going 0 to 1 with little more than high-level guidance

• Focused & fast-moving - Startup environments are distracting. You have the ability to block out the noise and deliver effectively

• Advocate of design culture - You value an open design culture and can relate to your team and the wider business through this philosophy

• Growth mindset - You understand that growth requires some failure and actively seek feedback on both your work and your style

• Express yourself - Be confident in your creative ideas and have the communication skills to present them

• Be nice - You get that the team is more important than yourself

What the job involves

• Solving for the user - you work to identify who our user is, constantly evaluate how our ideas address their needs and validate our designs with real feedback

• Running user interviews - Design at Flash Pack has a deep involvement in Discovery and it is our job to deliver as much context as possible to the team

• Team-working - you will be collaborating with a diverse, cross-functional product team to solve user problems throughout the group-travel universe

• Improve the design ‘machine’ - we’re always aiming to improve how we do things. In tandem with product and engineering, you’ll develop design processes that help us deliver great user experiences more efficiently

The salary range for this role is between £75K - £90K depending on experience. We also offer stock options after your first year with the company.
