Design Director
to lead the creative vision for this new brand—not an existing one—while shaping design strategy, user experience, and cross-market creative leadership.
As our Design Director, you will drive design excellence across brand, marketing, and product for our London expansion. You'll establish the creative direction, build a world-class design team, and ensure our new brand is user-centric, innovative, scalable, and aligned with business ambitions.
Key Responsibilities
Transforming the Design Team
- Build and mentor a high-performing, multicultural design team for the London brand (product, brand, graphic, motion, and content designers).
- Develop team capabilities through workshops, conferences, and continuous learning.
- Cultivate a strong internal design community through town halls, critiques, and collaborative forums.
- Lead UK-focused talent acquisition and university recruiting to grow the design pipeline.
Transforming User Experience
- Identify user needs and behaviors through research, interviews, surveys, analytics, and usability testing.
- Define design requirements to create intuitive, high-quality, and future-ready user experiences.
- Lead teams to produce UX patterns, wireframes, screens, prototypes, and design system components for a new brand ecosystem.
- Develop forward-thinking concepts and presentations for new business models and market opportunities.
- Own and elevate end-to-end customer experiences, including front-end website interactions.
- Standardize design quality across teams through reviews, guidelines, and training.
Transforming the Organization
- Represent design at leadership levels, collaborating with C-level executives across regions.
- Build a shared design language across teams, including education sessions and cross-functional rituals.
- Champion design-led decision-making to drive measurable business outcomes such as improved conversion, stronger brand identity, and reduced operational costs.
Driving Innovation & Future-Proofing
- Host speculative design workshops to explore future user needs and emerging market opportunities.
- Embed sustainability, ethics, and inclusive design principles into all processes and standards.
- Foster deep cross-functional collaboration across product, engineering, data, and marketing teams.
Who You Are
- Minimum 5+ years of experience in design leadership, ideally in technology, fintech, or digital-first businesses.
- Proven success in driving business outcomes through design—brand building, revenue impact, and operational efficiency.
- A portfolio demonstrating strategic thinking, user-centricity, and strong creative vision.
- Outstanding leadership, communication, and mentorship skills.
- Passionate about building new brands, growing teams, and shaping culture from the ground up.
Why Join BJAK
- Lead the creative direction of a new brand for BJAK's London expansion.
- Shape both business strategy and user experiences at scale across the UK and Europe.
- Build and mentor a diverse, global design team.
- Work in a fast-paced environment that values innovation, experimentation, and bold ideas.
- Fully remote role with flexible working arrangements.
- Competitive compensation and executive-level growth opportunities.
