The Role
Lead end-to-end product design for Specialty Travel platform workstreams, from discovery, user flows, and logic mapping through high-fidelity UI and developer handoff. Simplify complex B2B workflows, evolve scalable design systems, collaborate with engineering, use research and analytics to inform decisions, and communicate design narratives to global stakeholders across London, Berlin, and San Francisco.
Summary Generated by Built In

We’re looking for a Sr. Product Designer, Specialty Travel to join our Specialty Travel and Events Team in London. Our ideal candidate is a practitioner who can untangle complex B2B workflows and bring them to life with high-quality execution.

In this role, you will take ownership of key investment areas within our platform, moving from early-stage discovery and logic mapping to high-fidelity UI and rigorous developer handoff. We need a designer who is equally comfortable defining the "how it works" as they are the "how it looks."

What You’ll Do

  • End-to-End Ownership: Lead the design process for specific Specialty Travel workstreams from initial concept and user flows to final UI polish and developer-ready documentation.
  • Simplify Complex Systems: Translate intricate business requirements and dense data into clear, intuitive B2B interfaces. You’ll turn "information overload" into a streamlined user experience.
  • Systems Thinking: Contribute to and evolve our design system. You’ll ensure that enterprise-grade features remain consistent, accessible, and scalable across web and mobile.
  • Influence through Narrative: Present complex concepts in an easily digestible narrative to influence partners and stakeholders. You don't just show screens; you tell the story of the user’s journey.
  • Bridge the Gap to Engineering: Collaborate daily with developers to ensure your designs are implemented as intended. You care about the details of the final product as much as the initial prototype.
  • Data-Informed Advocacy: Use research and product analytics to validate your design decisions and build a well-rounded vision.
  • Global Collaboration: Work as part of a global team spanning London, Berlin, and San Francisco. You’ll facilitate design rituals and syncs that bridge time zones and cultures.

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of Product Design experience: Specifically within B2B, SaaS, or complex technical systems. You should be comfortable with deep hierarchies and power-user workflows.
  • Full-Stack proficiency: A portfolio that demonstrates strength in both UX Architecture (logic, edge cases, user flows) and UI Design (layout, hierarchy, and interaction).
  • Figma expertise: Proficiency in Figma is required; you use auto-layout and components to build organized, scalable files.
  • AI-Native Workflow: Comfortable weaving AI tools into everyday design work, using generative and AI-assisted features within Figma, prototyping tools, and LLMs to speed up research synthesis, content drafting, and exploration, without letting the tools replace your own judgment.
  • Shipped B2B Work: A proven track record of shipping impactful work in a B2B or B2B2C environment.
  • Technical fluency: You understand the constraints of web and mobile. You speak the language of developers and know how to negotiate a design without sacrificing the user experience.
  • An Iterative mindset: You believe that "done is better than perfect" but "perfecting" is what happens in the next sprint. You thrive on fast feedback cycles.
  • Strong communication: You can explain the "why" behind a design decision just as easily as you can discuss high-level product strategy.
  • A remote collaboration mindset: Excellent asynchronous communication skills. You thrive in a global environment where documentation, Slack, and proactive updates are key to team success.

Bonus points:

  • An added background in travel–or a deep interest in travel–is a significant plus!
  • Experience designing an AI solution
