Trainline is an innovative, tech business with a mission to bring together the world’s rail, coach and other travel services into one simple experience. We aim to make travel easier and more accessible, encouraging people to make more environmentally sustainable travel choices. We’re hugely proud to be the world’s leading independent rail and coach travel platform and rank among the highest-rated travel and ticketing apps globally. Today, we offer our customers travel to thousands of destinations in and across 45 countries in Europe and beyond. That’s more than £3.7 billion in ticket sales annually, and over 90 million visits to our apps and websites each month. In another major milestone, Trainline listed on the London Stock Exchange in June 2019 and is now part of the FTSE 250.
Our culture is central to our success. We’re driven to sustain our phenomenal growth from recent years, and this means we’re always working closely and collaboratively to turn our ideas into reality. It’s this sense of pace, innovating and improving pretty much everything we do, that makes Trainline so exciting and unique - we truly believe our work has a genuine impact and will change travel for the better.

You may have seen our new SplitSave feature launched last year that finds smart combinations of multiple train tickets to ‘split’ customers’ journeys, giving huge savings without disrupting their travel plans. Similarly, this was the birthplace of BusyBot, an app extension we invented that uses crowdsourcing data to provide travellers with real-time information about the train they’re on to guide them to a seat. Here, we pushed from ideation to release within a week…and that’s where you come in.

The role will also sit within the ever expanding UX team and therefore will expose you to the fantastic creative culture and rituals that come with it. Whilst scaling our design system will be your core focus, you will have the opportunity to influence other key strategic areas including future ticketing, European expansion and our Sustainability efforts.

- Developing a tight collaborative working relationship with dev partners so that they adopt and grow DEPOT in unison.
- Play a key role in developing and championing a contribution model with other designers in the UX team.
