We usually respond within two weeks
As a Senior Product Designer, your passion for user-centred-design helps you create the best possible experiences and outcomes for the user. You’ll be comfortable in both conducting formative and summative research techniques to solve complex product challenges, as well as having the ability to create usable and informative interface designs. As a true team player, you’ll be comfortable owning and leading the design direction within a multi-disciplinary team, whilst encouraging those around you to get involved in design activity.
OK, that’s me, but who are DrDoctor?
Take a look at our careers page (https://drdoctor.teamtailor.com/) to find out a bit more about our mission, vision, and impact!
But ultimately, we 💚 the NHS and want to help it work better. We radically transform the delivery of health services to make healthcare work for everyone – for patients, doctors, administrative teams and taxpayers.
What would I be doing day to day?
One of the great things about a scale-up is that every day is different and there is always an opportunity to get involved in something outside of your ‘BAU’!
However, the key things you could expect would include:
- You'll be applying mixture of research techniques across every stage of the product development lifecycle, building a better understanding of NHS staff and patient needs and expectations
- You’ll be creating prototypes for usability tests to learn and iterate your design thinking
- You'll be steering the end-to-end design process, all the way from discovery work through to implementation, but will have the support of your Product Manager and the wider Product Design team.
- You’ll be working within a multi-disciplinary team to define, ship, and improve product features.
- You’ll help support the development of our design system, ensuring that components and patterns are built in a flexible and reusable way.
- You’ll be sharing insight across the Product Wing and wider business, championing the user and evangelising the value of good design.
- You’ll confidently lead everything “design” within you Pod team, working closely with Product Managers and Engineers, whilst collaborating and supporting the wider Product Design team and guild.
OK, I’m interested. What experience do I need to have?
- You’ll need to be able to show that you’ve got some good experience as a Senior Product Designer in a fast paced start up or scale up environment
- We’d love to see a portfolio showcasing the products and experiences you've created and shipped, along with the outcomes you have helped drive
- You’ve taken a lead role in owning the design process within a product team
- You have experience in planning and conducting various forms user research including usability testing
- We’d love to you to have experience in working with and developing design systems
- You know your design software (we’re using Figma/Dovetail/Adobe/etc.)
- We love team players with low egos who encourage continuous feedback
We know from research and experience that candidates may not apply if they don’t think they meet 100% of our requirements. If you don’t tick all the boxes but feel you would be a good fit, we would still love to hear from you. We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive culture!
Just to let you know too, we will need you to have the Right To Work in the UK, and as we work closely with the NHS, if we get to the stage where we make you an offer to join us, we will also need to undertake a DBS check.
We are perfect for each other, what are the next steps?
We are currently recruiting heavily and have a lot of CVs to go through. However, we don’t wait for roles to close before going through your CV. We will be in touch in a few days to let you know if we think we might be a match, and if we are not. Unfortunately, because we get so many CV’s we are not able to send a personalised reply if it’s not a match. However, if you want more details as to why, just drop us a note and we will arrange to get some feedback over to you.
If it’s a match, then we will arrange a time to talk to you on a quick 30 minute call. It’s just an informal chat so you can relax! We will tell you more about the role, the team and why you should want to join us.
If we continue, then we will invite you to meet some of the team, most likely virtually. Some our roles will also be subject to completing an assessment or a role related exercise.
We get there are a lot of great roles out there, so we will make sure to get through the rounds as quickly as possible. All we ask is you keep us up to date with your plans.

We love a Summer and Christmas party and regular company/team socials and away days. In the past year or so, we have enjoyed AI Games, Agile Games, Terrarium Making, Wreath Making to name a few.
