Job description

About Us

We are a design & technology consultancy that partners with ambitious organizations to shape the future of products, services, and customer experiences. Our multidisciplinary teams combine strategy, design, and technology to deliver human-centered solutions that unlock growth and long-term value.

Joining us means becoming part of a design community that thrives on curiosity, collaboration, and courageous thinking. We believe in continual learning, knowledge sharing, and pushing the boundaries of what design can achieve.

The Role

As a Lead Product Designer, you will be at the intersection of design leadership, client engagement, and practice development. You will lead multidisciplinary teams to tackle complex challenges, guide clients through digital transformation, and ensure our design practice achieves creative excellence.

This is both a hands-on and leadership role : you will still craft design solutions when needed, while setting direction, mentoring others, and acting as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders. You'll also play a key role in advancing our firm's design approach such as shaping new methods, frameworks, and practices that elevate how we work, win business, and deliver impact.

Client Engagement & Consultancy

  • Build trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders.
  • Act as a design authority, influencing clients at a strategic level and guiding them through change.
  • Facilitate co-creation sessions, workshops, and design sprints with client teams.
  • Present, defend, and negotiate design recommendations with clarity and confidence.
  • Contribute to new business development by providing design leadership in proposals, pitches, and client conversations.
  • Advancing the Design Approach

  • Continuously evolve and document the firm's design methodology, frameworks, and tools.
  • Introduce new practices (e.g., AI-driven design, inclusive design, systems thinking) to keep the consultancy at the forefront of design innovation.
  • Collaborate with peers across strategy, research, and technology to refine integrated approaches to problem solving.
  • Role-model experimentation, iteration, and evidence-based design in all engagements.
  • Team & Practice Development

  • Mentor, coach, and line-manage designers by supporting performance reviews, growth plans, and career progression.
  • Foster a culture of feedback, collaboration, and continuous learning within the design team.
  • Support hiring, onboarding, and shaping career paths for future design leaders.
  • Lead or contribute to internal initiatives that strengthen our global design community.
  • Job Requirements

    Essential Experience

  • 7–10 years in product / service design, with 2–3 years in a leadership role.
