Senior Product Designer

Moneybox

We’re looking for a highly creative Senior Product Designer to join our Mortgages team and help shape the future of the home buying experience in app. 

Buying a home is an important and emotive goal for millions of people in the UK. From buying their first flat to the dream family home, this is a topic that is at the forefront of people’s minds, especially now. As the UK market leader in Lifetime ISAs we are already helping hundreds of thousands of people save >£75m towards their first (or next) home each month. However, we feel that this isn’t enough. To really help customers we need to support them all the way through their home buying journey, from starting to save all the way through to getting the keys to the property. Therefore, earlier this year, we launched Moneybox Mortgage Advice – our mortgage brokerage.  This service aims to help customers complete their home buying journey by helping them find the right mortgage and supporting them all the way through to completion. To date we have built an MVP service and helped hundreds of customers. The next challenge is to scale it and improve it so that it becomes the preferred choice for the large majority of our Lifetime ISA customers.
