Description

Position summary

The User Experience Lead is responsible for the design of the end-to-end user experience of Gelato Network, a global print fulfilment solution that powers the Gelato Group and connects millions of customers with local print fulfilment in nearly 30 countries. Users of the Gelato Network include 70 print partners, as well as the core network team responsible for quality and on time fulfilment of customer orders.

You will have responsibility for designing the user experience across all aspects of the Gelato Network solution, which includes a broad range of critical functionality: order management, routing, production management, escalation management, logistics management and performance reporting. It needs to be optimized across multiple platforms and devices. A beautifully designed Gelato Network experience should enhance printer engagement, increase control over fulfilment outcomes and ultimately, improve reliability and quality fulfilment for our customers and improve productivity of product teams.


Working cross-functionally with dedicated product teams, print partners and internal stakeholders, you will lead decisions regarding product customer experience and define the end-to-end user experience for Gelato’s Network platform. You will collaborate across disciplines to create design solutions for a diversity of problems, scale and media. In this role, you get exposure to and involvement with all parts of the design process: user research, concept development, prototyping, working with developers and design stewardship.

We’re looking for someone who is equally passionate about designing elegant user experiences as for using systematic thinking and human-centred design as a source of inspiration to solve complex problems.

  • Apply a broad range of human-centered design methodologies and tools (personas, conceptual models, user flows, wireframes, and interactive prototypes), to develop and communicate design solutions.
  • Conduct user research to develop insight into user needs and behaviors to define requirements and designs that meet those.
  • Keep up-to-date on UX/UI best practices and trends by monitoring competition and relevant products, to identify opportunities for innovation.
  • Share best practices internally to promote a culture of excellence in design and customer centricity.
  • Be the advocate within the organization for maintaining consistent customer experiences, design patterns, and standards across products and digital touch points.
  • Continuously seek and implement opportunities for improvement of the products and experiences.
  • Be accountable for a consistent best-in-class usability experience.
