About Rodeo

We are a small team with a big ambition to build the future of fair, frictionless, flexible work.

As an experienced team who’ve worked at leading tech companies (Deliveroo, Meta, Cleo and others) we aim to balance start-up vision with maturity and plain-speaking. We’re looking for smart, innovative, ambitious people who have abundant energy to help us build a transformative business in a huge market.

Starting with delivery drivers, Rodeo enables businesses to recruit, onboard and manage workers in a convenient, cost-effective and compliant way. For workers, a Rodeo profile is a reusable passport to work, saving them time and helping them to access more opportunities.

We’re supported by excellent investors (LocalGlobe, Seedcamp, Form, Mozilla) who share our vision.

Join us to apply yourself to solving real problems for millions of people and participate in the upside with meaningful ownership.

The Role

High quality design is table stakes for us. Whether it’s workers using our app, businesses using our portal to engage with them or prospects trying to find out more about our company, people should look forward to using our product and want to be associated with our brand. As the lead product designer, you will have a huge influence on whether or not we achieve this.

You will lead the design of features from ideation to delivery, ensuring high-quality execution at every stage. Working with the rest of the team as part of a single, cohesive unit you will identify problems and use a proactive, collaborative mindset to figure out solutions, communicate them effectively and build consensus. Working truly end-to-end, you will be judged by what ends up in the hands of our users, not what’s in Figma.

A pivotal role for the company, you have the confidence, strength and experience to shape not only our product and brand but also how we work as a team and the standards we hold ourselves to.

You should apply if…

• You make beautiful, functional products. You know what ‘good design’ is and have at least 7 years of experience building web and mobile products that work flawlessly and look amazing. You apply deep knowledge of design principles, processes and tools to rapidly conceptualise and iterate on features while maintaining meticulous attention to detail, ensuring interactions and visual flourishes enhance user delight.
• You really care about the work. Focus on the outcome. Collaborate openly, sweat the details, go back to the drawing board, confront difficult conversations, give and receive critical feedback with an open, constructive mindset - do what it takes to build the best thing possible.
• You have taste and are decisive. Speed will be critical to our success so you must be decisive and use your judgement to balance the trade-offs that come with moving quickly.
• You are a brilliant communicator. Whether it is digging for information or presenting your ideas to the team, your verbal and written communication is excellent.
• You advocate for the user. Stay user-focused by continuously engaging with user pain points, needs, and aspirations, using research insights to inform and justify design decisions.
• You are focused on outcomes and objectives. You enjoy working in a team driving towards the same goal. You are able to think strategically, allocate resources effectively and execute swiftly to hit targets.
