Product Designer

We’re a small, fast-paced, friendly team of 35 and growing, who are on a journey to build a rocket ship which is focused on solving the biggest problem facing small businesses - cashflow.

We’re using AI and Machine Learning to provide real-time forecasting that really helps small businesses and their accountants to be more confident in their decisions, and allowing business owners to sleep a little better at night! We recently got recognised for our hard work by making it into Wired’s Top 100 European startups.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a high-growth start up at a critical time as the business begins to scale. We’re looking for a well rounded product designer to join our growing design team. We have a range of disciplines and are passionate about creating products and services to shape how people experience Fluidly.

We use all the usual tools of Airtable, Sketch, Invision and Abstract etc but don’t let that hold you back - we’re always looking out for new tools that can develop our ways of working.
