Senior / Lead Product Designer London
Hybrid, 3 days/week in office | £80,000–£95,000 + 15% bonus + benefits
We're hiring on behalf of a well-established fintech business going through an exciting moment of change. After a period of running as separate regional teams across the UK, Ireland and Europe, design is now coming back together into a single, unified global team, and this role sits right at the heart of that.
The role
This is a player/coach position: roughly 60% hands-on design, 40% leadership and strategy. You'll lead a team of 3–5 designers while staying close to the work yourself, shaping both the craft and the culture as previously separate teams come together under one roof.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll act as the connective tissue across the design function, bringing consistency, shared standards, and a stronger sense of team to a group that's spent the last couple of years working independently.
What you'll be doing
- Leading and mentoring a small team of designers, while remaining hands-on with your own projects
- Working across the full product lifecycle rather than a single narrow area
- Balancing UX and UI work evenly, with strong app design experience alongside web
- Helping unify design standards, patterns and ways of working across a newly consolidated team
What we're looking for
- Senior/Lead-level product designer with genuine breadth across products or pillars
- Startup or fast-paced experience, comfortable moving quickly with less process
- Strong UI craft, this role leans visual and interaction-design heavy, not just UX/research
- Solid app design experience, at least 50/50 split with web
- A portfolio that tells a story, we want to see your thinking and process, not just headline metrics
- Real player/coach experience: you've led people as well as done the work yourself

Good to know
- 3 days a week in a Bank/Moorgate office, easy commute from most of London
- This isn't the right fit if your background is mainly large corporate/enterprise or banking environments, or centred on checkout products
