At Checkatrade, we’re building the UK’s go-to home improvement marketplace. Every day, we help millions of homeowners find the right tradesperson for the job - fast, fair, and without the faff.
As our next Product Designer, you’ll take responsibility for the design quality of features from discovery through to implementation. This is a hands-on role for a designer who can manage their own design process and deliver high-quality work within a single squad. You’ll own a feature (or improve an existing one), working closely with Product Managers, Engineers, Researchers and Content Designers to deliver meaningful outcomes for our customers and trades. You’ll bring strong craft, clear thinking, and a practical approach to problem-solving - balancing speed and quality while contributing to a collaborative team environment.
