• Partner directly with the CEO, Chief Strategy Officer, and senior leadership team on company-direction initiatives, contributing design perspective to business strategy, market positioning, and growth planning.

• Lead the transformation of the design function from a production-oriented service into a Research & Development capability, where every strategic bet is validated through design-led prototyping and consumer evidence before full investment.

• Represent Design at executive forums, board presentations, and cross-functional leadership meetings, advocating for user-centred decision-making and design-led innovation.

Design Organisation & Team Leadership

• Build, lead, and develop a multidisciplinary design team of approximately 10 professionals spanning product design, UX research, and consumer insights.

• Establish and maintain design hiring standards, career progression frameworks, and professional development programmes to attract and retain top design talent.

• Foster a culture of design excellence, creative rigour, and continuous learning within the team and across the broader organisation.

• Drive AI adoption and AI-augmented design workflows across the team, achieving high levels of productivity through modern tooling and automated processes.

Product & Experience Design

• Oversee the end-to-end design of the organisation's digital product portfolio, including financial comparison tools, recommendation engines, editorial content experiences, and emerging AI-powered advisory products.

• Own the design system architecture and component library, ensuring consistency, accessibility, scalability, and brand coherence across all platforms and touchpoints.

• Lead the design strategy for new product initiatives, including AI chat assistants, personalised financial wellness tools, and machine-learning-optimised content experiences.

• Ensure all design output meets the highest standards of usability, accessibility (WCAG compliance), performance, and visual quality.

Innovation & AI Integration

• Pioneer the integration of AI and machine learning into the design workflow, including AI-first design systems that connect design components directly to AI coding tools to eliminate inconsistencies and accelerate development.

• Lead the development of LLM-optimised content templates and information architectures that ensure content is structured for both human consumption and machine-readable citation by large language models.

• Drive design innovation through rapid prototyping, consumer testing, and iterative experimentation, enabling the organisation to validate ideas at low cost before committing engineering resources.

• Identify and evaluate emerging design technologies, tools, and methodologies that can provide competitive advantage.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Influence

• Partner with Product, Engineering, Editorial, Growth, SEO, and Data Science teams to ensure design thinking is integrated across all workstreams and business decisions.

• Collaborate with commercial and partnerships teams to design consumer experiences that drive revenue growth, lead generation, and partner engagement.

• Establish and lead cross-functional design review processes, ensuring alignment between design direction and business objectives.

• Act as the primary advocate for consumer needs within the organisation, embedding consumer insights and user research evidence into strategic planning and prioritisation.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Proven track record of building and leading high-performing design teams within technology, media, or financial services organisations.

• Demonstrated ability to operate at a strategic level, influencing business direction and product strategy alongside C-suite executives.

• Deep expertise in design systems, component architectures, and scalable design practices for multi-product digital platforms.

• Strong understanding of AI/ML technologies and their application to design workflows, content strategy, and product innovation.

• Expert proficiency in Figma and modern design tooling, with working knowledge of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, React/TypeScript) and data-informed design practices.

• Exceptional communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate design thinking into commercial value.

• Experience with consumer financial services, comparison platforms, or content-led digital products is highly desirable.
