I’m currently working with a high-traffic global recommerce marketplace that’s on a mission to make buying pre-owned products the first choice for millions of customers worldwide.
Operating at huge scale, they’re investing heavily in AI, product innovation, and customer experience to transform how people discover, evaluate and purchase within the circular economy.
Right now, they’re looking for an exceptional Senior Product Designer to lead a major redesign of one of their most commercially critical product experiences.
This is a hands-on role with real impact shaping the experience for millions of users and directly influencing conversion, discovery and revenue.

Expect to work across:
✨ UX research & discovery
✨ Interaction design and prototyping
✨ Conversion optimisation
✨ Experimentation & testing
✨ Mobile-first design at scale
A big part of the challenge will be reimagining how customers discover and evaluate products within a marketplace environment, unlocking better search, discovery and purchasing experiences.
🤖 AI-First Product Organisation
This company is deeply AI-driven.
Designers here are expected to actively leverage AI across the design workflow from research synthesis and ideation through to prototyping, testing and experimentation.
