The Job

Are you are UX Lead looking to make your mark in a brand new project? Then apply today for this exciting opportunity.

I am looking for a UX Lead to sculpt the future for an electric vehicle start up that is aiming to be the main marketplace for purchasing, leasing, insuring, charging, supporting, owning and using electric vehicle.

This company is building the infrastructure that is currently missing for EV owners or prospective owners.

You will be part of the product team, supported by product managers, marketing and outside agencies for research etc. The team is currently 20 strong with ambitions to double this year and more than double again in 2023, as they build functionality and traction.

This role requires someone that is hands on role as a new Product Owner, you’ll prioritise and agree the ElectriX Product backlog, to ensure that delivery of project MVP (Minimum Viable Product) can be achieved within the agreed timeframes. Working alongside the Product Manager, Partners/Third Parties, Scrum Master and UX Design, you’ll be responsible for driving delivery of the ElectriX business requirements in order to provide the required functionality and business benefits.

The company

This is a start-up that is owned by a large financial services company who has a large foot in the EV space. However, they are completely separate to this company and choose to be based in a WeWork rather than a corporate office. They are essentially a start up that has not got to go through funding rounds, they have a budget that allows for growth and aiming to be commercial from the get-go, rather than building an audience and hope for an IPO!

As they are part of a large company you will benefit from a good wage, great tangible benefits and job security. As a start up you will benefit from complete freedom, flexibility, and the chance to own something from day one. It really is the best of both worlds.

The team being assembled are like the avengers of the UK EV world, they are tough leaders, social influencers, product gurus and veterans of a fledgling industry. They are also great people, super encouraging and full of passion.

The money

I am unable to give you the salary due to client restrains, but I can tell you that the salary is inline with the market and has a bonus of up to 30%, they will add up to 14% to your pension, 30 days holiday, life assurance, life insurance, permanent sickness cover, ½ home insurance, 1/3rd off your car insurance, training, plus a million other perks.

Location

This job is mainly remote with meet ups with the team on a monthly or quarterly basis, essentially you will come in when there is a actual need. You will have base location of either London, Bristol, Bournemouth or Hertfordshire and you will receive expenses for any travel from these locations for your meet ups.

Why you should take on this job

If you want to work in one of the fastest growing sectors in the world, working with exceptional people on some important projects that will ultimately help save the planet.

You will work with a lot of freedom and take complete ownership.
