We are looking for someone to help us drive the next phase of growth at DrDoctor, leading a talented product design team through the execution of a recently refreshed strategy. As an experienced leader of design teams, you’ll be able to balance building a well-oiled product design function, as well as helping to shape our product vision and strategy.
Your authentic design leadership style has evolved from having bags of experience of designing brilliant products and managing projects from beginning to end, ensuring design efforts meet both user needs and business goals. You will be using that experience to help grow a team of research and design professionals who can create amazing user experiences. You’ll be able to show and share what successful design looks like and the value that it brings. Sometimes this may mean rolling up your sleeves to help guide the product and design team to design thoughtful and polished experiences.
Our design team serves a vital role at DrDoctor: our talented team of Product Designers are leading the way in UX and research methods, supported by enthusiastic engineering and product management functions. We’re looking for a Head of Design to help take our design function to the next level. This means: elevating our design craft, driving the growth and development of the team and improving our discovery and design processes. There’s lots of opportunity to influence what we do and how we do it at DrDoctor- we’re excited for you to help us deliver on our product vision to ensure the right patient is in the right place at the right time. You’ll be building on brilliant foundations, our product is loved by NHS healthcare teams and used by 21+ Million Patients across 50 NHS Trusts and Health Boards - we just hit 100 Million appointments.
