INTRODUCING

The User Research Lead

StaffAny’s mission is to shape and empower the future of work. As the User Research Lead, you will help uncover business-driven insights that help guide product strategy and decisions, improving the user experience and driving business outcomes like customer acquisition and retention. You will be working across our Design, Product, Data and Marketing functions to gather these insights, synthesising them into design findings. You will also be the voice of the customer, collecting, analysing feedback across different data sources.

This role is uniquely different from other User Research Roles as there is a huge emphasis on synthesising and processing collection of information from our sales and customer success team, on top of the direct primary research responsibilities. You will still be involved in the entire product development process, with a focus on problem discovery and potential conceptual solutioning.

Additionally, as an early member of our growing team, you’ll have the opportunity to shape our research principles, process, and tools. You’ll work closely with our Chief Product Officer to define the questions that guide our UX research program. This role is also perfect for someone that wants to transit into a Product Design or Product Management role in the future.

If you are someone who believes in product led growth and is able to continually drive business value to people around you, apply to join our rocketship.
