This is an exciting opportunity to become part of the EasyPark team as a Design Lead. You will play a key role in our future success and have a true opportunity to make a real impact and difference for our users and our business!

Firstly, a bit about the team

As Design Lead for Driver’s Experience, you’ll work across one of the core departments of EasyPark. The department currently consists of 13 teams and over 110 highly skilled individuals within product, engineering, design or analytics. This department oversees EasyPark’s consumer-facing products: chiefly the app(s), catering for 30 million monthly active users, as well as automotive and wearable integrations.

What you’ll be doing

The Design Lead at EasyPark takes a strong and holistic ownership of the end to end user experience that’s under the remit of the department they’re working in. This role entails a mix of leading a small team as well as hands-on contributions to raise the bar on the quality of the experiences offered to EasyPark’s users.

As design lead you’ll report directly to the Head of Product Design and will collaborate closely with senior stakeholders in product, engineering and design, to shape the next steps of how the products should look, work and feel moving forward.
