London, United Kingdom slick Full time

Company Description

At Slick we've built a smart booking platform and digital business partner for salons and barbers that is revolutionising how industry professionals interact with technology to improve their workflow and enhance their customers’ experience.

Today, 65% of salons still use pen & paper to run their business and only 10% of bookings are made online. Compare that to how you book taxis, hotels & restaurants The beauty sector has yet to be transformed by technology and it is our mission to change that.

We’ve taken a unique approach, being 100% customer focused, only building what works for salons, and our NPS score of 86 is a testament to the success of our strategy. Since launch in 2019, we’ve built a best in class product that is used by over 1000 UK salons, having taken over 10 million bookings, and we’re the only platform to have partnerships with L’Oréal, Meta and Stripe giving us huge credibility in the industry and a unique advantage over competitors. Slick is revenue generating, growing 100% year-on-year, and close to profitability.

We are looking for an outstanding designer who is excited to take our product to the next level and assist our marketing team with content to supercharge sales, helping us achieve our mission of becoming the UK market leader.

**Job Description**:
**What you can expect in your role as Design Lead**:

- You will work closely with our CEO and Junior Product Manager who have extensive knowledge and understanding of our customers’ needs and a passion for UX
- While Slick has a mature product that is addressable to 90% of our customer base, we have a pipeline of exciting new features for you to put your stamp on There is also the opportunity to streamline the design and improve usability across our existing platform to drive user engagement and satisfaction
- In the next 6-9 months, we will also be launching our first native app - a lite but beautiful version of our web app. This will be your creation, your baby and the chance to showcase your skillset to the world
- Another key focus will be a Product Led Growth strategy to upsell our users from our base price plan to the higher tiers, as well as driving feature discoverability and usage.
- Outside of the product, there is the opportunity to engage with our commercial team and boost their armoury with powerful marketing assets for new feature launches and experimental marketing campaigns

- Is excited to get out into salons to showcase designs and get first-hand customer feedback
- Has meticulous attention to detail and ability to thoroughly spec designs for handover to developers with clear communication and commentary around different states and scenarios
- Can be flexible and willing to adapt to the company’s needs, with the ability to work fast on smaller tasks if required
