- The support of a highly engaged, high-performing team including a leadership team that’s you’ll actually have face time with.
- 18 weeks paid parental leave for primary caregivers, four weeks paid secondary caregivers leave, six weeks paid gender affirming care leave.

The Lead role has direct management responsibility with the opportunity to coach and mentor Designers who also work within the product teams of the tribe.
- Collaborate with product leadership to define medium and longer-term strategy, as well contribute to assessing and prioritising shorter-term roadmaps
- Define best-practice product design processes and general operating models in collaboration Product and Tech leadership
- Conduct research and user testing studies to represent key insights that will help influence decisions and directions
- Iteratively create interaction flows, wireframes, high-fidelity prototypes and finely crafted visual design mock-ups
- Collaborate with product development and other teams to set realistic expectations for project scope, delivery timeframes whilst maintaining quality standards

**Qualifications**:
**What we are looking for?**
- Demonstrated inclusive and interpersonal attributes that connect you to our behaviours (we change the game, we own it, we step in, we are curious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously)
- Expertise in designing seamless product experiences based on the user-centered design methods and best practices
- Demonstrated expertise to share and promote collaboratively design thinking across the entire business
- Competent skills in industry-standard software such as Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD and Adobe Creative Suite, etc. You’ll have the ability to create inspired concepts to a highly polished finish.

Additional Information
**A few other things we want to let you know about...**
