Hey folks - I am excited to announce Zest Search's latest retained client 🚀 We've partnered with Kittl, a Series B design tooling scale-up with over $45mil in funding from top investors, including Left Lane Capital, IVP, Speedinvest, and many more 👀 First up, we are seeking a Head of Product Design who will have the unique opportunity to create and implement features used by millions of designers around the world 🔥 They're looking for a hands-on design leader who is still close to the craft and can lead a small but experienced team of senior product designers while reporting to the co-founder/CPO. They've also been product/design-led from day one, so they have a high bar for design! You'll need experience shipping SaaS productivity products while leading a product design team. This would suit a Principal/Design Lead looking to step up into more of a management/leadership position or a head of/director looking to get back closer to the craft. They have a hybrid working setup in Berlin/London or the potential to be fully remote from other European cities or the US East Coast (on a case-by-case basis) Get in touch with your CV/portfolio!
