Xero is a beautiful, easy-to-use platform that helps small businesses and their accounting and bookkeeping advisors grow and thrive. 

At Xero, our purpose is to make life better for people in small business, their advisors, and communities around the world. This purpose sits at the centre of everything we do. We support our people to do the best work of their lives so that they can help small businesses succeed through better tools, information and connections. Because when they succeed they make a difference, and when millions of small businesses are making a difference, the world is a more beautiful place.

Xero Product Designers are responsible for designing beautiful, enabling and meaningful experiences that solve genuine customer problems. As a Product Designer you’ll work on small-medium scale projects within a product area of a portfolio and contribute to larger scale projects as part of a team.

Xero Tax lets you manage tax preparation, lodgement and compliance tasks for all their accounting or bookkeeping clients, including those not on Xero. You will help to push the user experience of Xero Tax into the future where tax “just happens” and support its users along the journey, to improve the lives of thousands of customers.

The Tax team you will be partnering with are experienced and have deep domain knowledge. They understand the value the tax product brings to Xero, and it’s ability to bring new users to the platform. They are pragmatic, deal with real deadlines, but have an exciting long term vision for the Tax product and want to continue their successful partnership with design & research to make this happen. 

In the Xero Design team you'll spend time with Xeros from all across the business to best understand how we can keep maturing and unifying the Xero experience, supporting a co-ownership model and quality implementations of our design system. You'll work with over 160 designers across the globe to dive into research, create amazing user experiences, and help to build tooling and documentation.

We're looking for a mid level designer who will champion the voice of design & research, but also be strategic, pragmatic and patient with the give & take nature of product design. 

As a Product Designer you’ll need to be a self starter, partnering with product and engineering peers on large scale initiatives, and handle those relationships. You’ll champion consistent, quality user experiences that scale across Xero Tax. Strong visual design skills are a must, as well as the ability to interpret and push what can be done within our Design systemsframework.

We offer a great remuneration package including shares plus a range of leave options to suit your well-being. Our work environment encourages continuous improvement and career development and you’ll get to work with the latest technology.

We know that a diverse workforce is a strength that enables businesses, including ours, to better understand and serve customers, attract top talent and innovate successfully. We are a member of Pride in Diversity, in recognition of our inclusive workplace. So, from the moment you step through our doors, you’ll feel welcome and supported to do the best work of your life.
