Description

Plum is helping 1.4M people around Europe to motivate their money. Supported by automation, we put you in the driving seat, providing access to smart spending analytics, budgeting and investing tools. So, wherever you are on your financial journey, we can accompany you on the ride so you can achieve your money goals.
We want to empower you to take control of your money, to transform it into something more.

And here's why:

11.5M people in the UK have less than £100 in savings
90% of UK savings accounts pay less than inflation

- £4B lost to the loyalty penalty every year

2/3 of UK adults say money stress has affected the health or well being of someone they know.

Our Mission
We imagined a world where everyone could manage their finances simply. An app that could get people saving and investing with the help of automation. So we've built it. Now, Plum lets customers across 10 different countries handle all their money needs in a single place.

In 5 years, we've grown from 2 co-founders sharing a rusty desk in Soho, to a brilliant, hard-working team of 170+, with offices in London (HQ), Athens and Nicosia.

As you can see, we've been busy - but there's still plenty of exciting projects in the pipeline and we could use a little help.

That's where you come in

The Role

As a Product Designer, you'll be working on improving the customer experience and building towards our mission of "Wealth for all, that's automated and looked after".

This is a hands-on role, where you'll spend most of your time designing parts of the Plum product within a cross-functional team.

You can join our office in London, Athens or Nicosia.

What You Will Do

Solve user problems from beginning to end. From carrying out research to implementing your polished flows and interactions with engineers.
Collaborate with other designers to establish Plum's design processes, tooling setup and core principles.
Sketch and prototype ideas with your team, to assess their viability before fleshing out the finer details and interactions.
Use research and testing to validate your work and build empathy and further understanding of Plum's users.
Buddyup with Product Managers, to define how the product works and what it looks like in future iterations.
Work closely with Engineers to build, iterate and ship your ideas.

Who You Are

A product thinker you care about why you're designing something and what impact it will have for the user.
Someone who has a design process that puts the human first. You use data and research where necessary, and validate design through testing.
A brilliant communicator you can explain and rationalise the reasons for your design decisions, and can receive and give constructive feedback.
Able to work independently, but also know when to work with other designers and when to ask for help.
Fluent in designing for mobile devices and with a strong portfolio of projects showing your interaction and visual design skills.
Someone who understands how digital products get built, and you have 3+ years experience shipping them.
Fluent in iOS and Android design and know when to reuse existing patterns versus going custom. And importantly, you know chips, toasts and snack bars are more than just tasty treats.
