Product Designer (fixed Term Contract - Maternity Cover)

Product Designer

At Perk, we believe in empowering cross-functional teams that drive exceptional results for our customers and the company. 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.

What Will My Day Look Like?

• 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.

What Skills Are Required?

• 3+ years working as a Product Designer (ideally working with SaaS products)
• 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
• 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

Why You'll Love Our Team

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 prioritizing 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.
