The client:
Picture this - a “heart-led” and “empathy-focused” company with millions of customers, that’s also a venerable, 200-year-old, F100 InsureTech company, with incredible resources, culture, and support of their employees!
This is a place where diversity and humanity are deeply rooted values in their company culture. They have incredible benefits - including great health coverage, 6 month parental leave, 401K matching, and a pension, to name a few highlights.
They have been named one of Fortune’s “World’s Most Admired Companies”, are in the top 50 companies in Forbes’ 2024 “America’s Best Employers for Diversity”, and received a score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s “2023-2024 Corporate Equality Index”.
They are in the midst of massive growth and expansion, building out a bevy of 0 to 1 products as well as innovating on their legacy products, so it’s a great time to get in the door to build impactful products at a massive scale.
The role: Director of Product Design, FieldOps (corporate recruitment site + tools)
- You'll manage the creation of end-to-end products that facilitate the successful attraction, hiring, onboarding, and engagement of new financial agents to their company
- It’s a b2c website, as well as a suite of tools on the backend which will require UX skills
- This is a “player / coach” role which requires some degree of hands on design skill in Figma (25-35% of the time, including at the pixel level), while managing design agency vendors and freelancers, driving initiatives with key stakeholders, etc.
- Ideal candidate is established in the UX / Product Design realm now, and can handle the design of complex functionality, but can oversee beautiful b2c website design to attract and acquire users.
- You might not be hands-on designing Marketing / Brand work anymore, but perhaps you came out of it earlier in your career.
- At the very least, you "know what good looks like", and you've overseen design agencies or freelancers to create compelling, consumer-grade websites to attract potential users / applicants.
- You've got Product Design chops to handle the heavy-duty UX / Product Design behind this site - ie, complex forms submission and progress tracking, applications, data collection, etc.
- You can think of it as a built in ATS that the company will use to track and hire candidates.
Preferred background:
- Ideally 10+ years of relevant design experience, with both B2B and B2C experience
- InsureTech, financial services, healthcare and other highly regulated spaces
- Must have experience managing agency partners and consultants, as well as have management or mentoring experience of freelancers
- You're less likely to manage an internal direct report, at least for now, but that could change in the future
- You have led design at scale (ie: millions of users, ideally)
- This level may be the equivalent of a Lead, Staff, Art Director, Associate Creative Director, or Design Director at other companies
- Strong knowledge of accessibility guidelines is highly useful
Logistics:
- Location: Hybrid onsite Tues-Thurs in NYC
