We are looking for an experienced and visionary Lead UX/UI Designer who thrives on complexity and impact — someone ready to lead design excellence for the financial sector across the EU, Poland and occasionally the GCC. At Efigence, you will play a key role in shaping cutting-edge digital products and omnichannel banking experiences for leading financial institutions — from retail and SME to investments and wealth management.

Your Responsibilities:

• Define and own the holistic design vision for financial products — from research and ideation to delivery
• Lead, mentor, and inspire a team of UX/UI designers, ensuring alignment with product strategy, client goals, and business KPIs
• Collaborate with strategy, data, and technology teams to translate business goals into user-centered experiences
• Conduct and facilitate client workshops to co-create innovative solutions for complex financial journeys
• Present and advocate design decisions to client stakeholders and executive teams
• Drive consistency, accessibility, and design system adoption across platforms and projects
• Support your team’s growth, performance, and craft excellence through continuous feedback and mentorship

Who Are We Looking For?

• 7+ years of UX/UI experience, including team or design practice leadership
• Proven portfolio of enterprise-scale financial projects (banking, insurance, wealth/investments)
• Strong domain expertise in financial UX— flows, compliance, and customer journeys specific to FI
• Experience in international environments and cross-cultural collaboration (EU/GCC a plus)
• A track record in building and scaling design capabilities or organizational change
• Excellent communication, facilitation, and storytelling skills
• Fluency in English (C1) — Polish is a strong plus

What Can You Expect from Us?

• Meaningful impact – Shape digital banking products used by millions of customers
• Career growth – Access to mentoring, expert sessions, and leadership programs
• Collaborative culture – Knowledge-sharing, internal meetups, and design community support
• Autonomy & trust – Freedom to experiment and lead new initiatives
• Flexible work setup – Remote-first model, flexible hours, and work-life balance
• Attractive benefits – Private healthcare, Multisport, English lessons, training budget, and more
