About this Role & Why Were Hiring
Stotles is looking for a Staff Product Designer to lead on our latest product release, Bid Studio. The product has just launched and is now on a journey to adoption. Design and the way that we solve problems will be a differentiator that Stotles is betting on.
This role requires full ownership of the design process, from user research to product strategy, UI finesse, and close collaboration with engineers to deliver high‑quality results.
Comp Range: £75,000 - £95,000 with an additional options equity grant dependent on experience
What we’re thinking about
* What are the critical points of our user journey to work on? What are the barriers to adoption? Should we focus on the initial setup of a users bid plan or go deep on helping them craft exceptional responses?
* How can we best leverage LLMs to improve the process of managing and responding to bids? We know that it can be a valuable tool to connect the dots to past work and draft initial content. How do we design that into our product experience? What patterns can we explore in a still emerging space?
* How do we support users not yet ready or able to adopt LLMs in their workflow? For some users, it is a matter of trust. For other users, its their vertical that restricts their level of adoption.
* How can users experience our product before becoming paid customers? We offer a free tier and are now exploring what shape that takes with this new product offering. How can we connect to users high value moments?
What Youll Do
* Lead the end-to-end design of our Bid Studio product stream from opportunity to shipped solution.
* Speak with our users to understand their needs and test solutions using both qualitative and quantitative methods.
* Work closely with PMs, engineers and other designers through the entire process.
* Collaborate with customer success, growth and sales to analyse and understand target users, their context, and the competitive landscape.
* Measure the success of your decisions with the team and iterate when needed.
* Contribute to our design team and product org culture, teaching others, defining a new bar for greatness and sharing knowledge.
What we value
* Exceptional IC’s with experience designing complex multi‑user B2B SaaS products.
* Ability to transform insights from research and analytics into concepts, detailing workflows, interactions and components to make them a reality.
* Ability to create polished high‑fidelity mockups, interactive prototypes, and supporting documentation for real‑world impact.
* An obsession for solving problems and advancing ideas with collaborators at the right moments.
* Great communication skills to explain rationale and the complexities of design challenges.
* Coaching and supporting other designers, improving design processes, principles, and tooling.
* Project management abilities in small squads with senior guidance to tackle the most impactful problems.
Who this role isn’t for
* You thrive across the full design journey, not just a single phase.
* You want a team with everything figured out; this is a new product in an evolving space.
* You need heavy direction and prefer clear next steps; come with ideas and embrace ambiguity.
📢 Most importantly, were looking for curious, ambitious people who love to learn and want to be part of building something special. If you don fit our requirements but you are passionate about our vision, please apply.
