Senior UX / Product Designer - Contract | Central London
A rare contract - PAYE seat has opened on the design team behind advertising and monetisation products used by businesses at global scale. £88,000 - and the work earns it.
This isn't consumer app design. You'll be shaping complex, data-dense tools, the kind where the craft isn't in making things look pretty, it's in making something genuinely intricate feel obvious. Small senior team, one seat, and a high bar for who fills it.
What you'll be doing
- Owning design end to end - turning real, messy user needs into clear journeys, mock-ups and prototypes that actually get built.
- Working closely with UX researchers to design for what users need, not what we assume they need.
- Sitting shoulder to shoulder with product and engineering, staying in the detail so what ships is what you drew.
- Helping the design system grow, so good decisions get made once and reused.
- Designing across both desktop and mobile.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.

Experience fit

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.
What you'll bring
- 4-6 years in UX, product or interaction design, on complex or enterprise-grade tools rather than purely consumer work.
- Real depth in Figma - it's where you'll live.
- A portfolio that shows your thinking, not just your screens. Strong complex-tooling work from any domain counts; it needn't be advertising.
- Systems thinking, and the knack for explaining a thorny problem - and your way through it - so designers and non-designers both follow you.
- A working command of user-research practices.
- A degree in design, UX or a related product field.
- The kind of person a small team is glad to have in the room. Here, how you collaborate counts as much as how you design.
