Juni who? 👋
At Juni, we’re busy building the future of banking. We want to help businesses do more with less and get access to the financial tools they need to operate, grow, and win globally. 

How & why we do it 🚀
We give our people the same thing we’re building for our customers: freedom. Freedom to be 100% yourself. Freedom to explore your potential and what’s more – make the most of it. We truly believe we’re making the world a better place for online businesses, and we want you to be a part of that mission.

About the role 🤸‍♀️
Juni is at an inflection point.

We have spent our first four years building the foundations of a different type of business bank. One that makes finance easy and allows our customers to focus on doing what they do best - building their business. However, there was a trade off. What we gained in speed of delivery required a sacrifice in cohesiveness of our user experience.

We now want to take a step back and stitch everything we have built together into one holistic, intuitive, and enjoyable user experience.

This is where you come in.

We are looking for a Principal/Lead Product Designer to take charge of everything design at Juni.

Someone who can build and lead a team of talented designers who thrive on delivering exciting work. Someone who can be a champion for the user, building experiences that work for them, even if they break the “norms”. Someone who can lead multiple projects concurrently and collaborate with everyone from frontend engineers to legal.

In short, someone capable of building a bold vision, get buy-in from the rest of the company, and deliver it.

Your responsibilities 👏

• Build and lead a talented, diverse, and inclusive team of designers who thrive on delivering exceptional work across a variety of design disciplines
• Shape and articulate a design vision that inspires and aligns teams across Juni, helping to shape and define priorities
• Collaborate with product, engineering, data, legal & compliance, and more to deliver solutions that are impactful across markets and platforms
• Manage multiple projects and scale resources effectively, ensuring teams have clear, measurable goals and the support needed to achieve them
• Be endlessly curious, and bring the latest knowledge, insights, and trends of desktop, mobile, and other design disciplines into Juni

Within 1 month, you'll:

• Familiarise yourself with our existing design principles and design patterns
• Build relationships with team members across Product, Engineering, and others
• Conduct a UX audit to explore pain points and opportunity areas in the short, medium, and long term

Within 3 months, you'll:

• Create/revise design org structures and processes that equip your team to succeed
• Build on and expand the existing design vision for Juni, across Web and Mobile
• Be a champion for our users, with a deep understanding of their needs and pain points
• Collaborate with product and engineering to start shaping priorities

Within 6 months, you'll:

• Have a finalised design vision that we are starting to see in the live product
• Get the reformed design team fully up to speed and delivering polished designs that work with cross-platform flows
• Foster a thriving design culture where talent grows, creativity flourishes, and team members feel empowered to do their best work
