About the Role
Join CMC Markets as a Senior Product Designer and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our global trading platform. This is an opportunity for a highly strategic designer who thrives on solving complex problems and transforming sophisticated financial concepts into intuitive, user-centric experiences. You'll lead the design of next-generation trading products used by customers worldwide, applying systems-thinking to create seamless workflows across web and mobile platforms. As a key contributor to our global design system, you'll help drive consistency, scalability, and innovation while ensuring the precision and reliability required in a professional trading environment. Working closely with product and engineering leaders, you'll have the opportunity to influence product strategy, elevate design standards, and help modernise CMC's digital experience on a global scale. Beyond hands-on design, you'll mentor and support fellow designers, contributing to a collaborative and high-performing design culture. You’ll operate at the intersection of systems thinking and interaction design, leading end-to-end work on a product that demands both precision and creativity. You’ll own and evolve our Figma-based design system, ensuring it scales seamlessly across global web and mobile experiences. As the platform grows, so will the scope of your role.
