Job description
Description of the Business Line or Department
SG Markets is Societe Generale’s suite of B2B digital products and applications for start-ups, corporate and financial institutions. We are the Product and UX team of the Corporate & Investment Banking division. So far, our team of c.20 designers have delivered over 120 services on the SG Markets platform over 8 years and developed one of the most advanced Design Systems in a Bank. Our mission? To lead change and make great products with a seamless user experience.
Our team structure is flat and transversal – this means that we don’t isolate ourselves in a studio, but we’re not completely dispersed either. Instead, we sit openly with everyone collaborating with business teams, IT and each other. Our flat team structure means that every single person on the team is heard – we don’t worry about where ideas come from, we only want to find the best solutions.
Summary of the key purposes of the role
We’re looking for a talented designer who can make an impact on us, and on the products that we work on. We love diversity and we’re open to all backgrounds. If you can show us your passion for user experience, your skills in strategic thinking and excellent execution, we would love to have you on the team.
As a Product Designer, we’d like you to work with us to do research to uncover customer issues, and opportunities. You should be able to use efficient problem framing approaches to solve problems and create products with great user experience and value.
Summary of responsibilities
What will you be doing?
We want to give you the skills to work on a project end to end – you’ll be in constant contact with the Business and Information Technology teams. In the projects, you’ll work on the scoping, research, ideation, prototyping and handoff stages. All with a goal of making the best and most easily usable products. Projects range across brand new products, redesigns of existing systems, individual feature design and one off UX or UI reviews. You’ll start on smaller projects while you learn to work with our methodology and design system with your buddy, before we unleash you to eventually lead the design of a full project.
Our work is broad – We know that corporate companies and financial products can seem intense, but this only means that we constantly have to adapt our skills to new areas, which ensures that everyone here has the opportunity to work across a huge variety of financial projects, ranging from trading tools to client onboarding services.
