ABOUT US

At Urban Jungle, we’re making insurance fair - to people, planet and wallets. We’re one of the fastest-growing businesses in the UK, working to fix one of the biggest industries in the world.
We put customers at the heart of everything we do, using data and technology to make insurance simple, flexible, and affordable.
We care about our impact on the planet, becoming a B Corp in 2022 and offsetting our carbon emissions every year.
So far, we’ve helped 300,000 customers get better insurance and become one of the top-rated home insurance providers in the UK.
We placed 1st in Tempo’s 2024 award for best startup to work for, and are in the top 10 of Deloitte’s Fast 50. We’ve raised over £43m in funding to date to help us with our mission.
We’re looking for people to join our team of kind, talented people on a mission to change the insurance industry for good.

YOU’VE READ THIS FAR! HERE’S WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR FROM YOU:

• You have a qualification in user-centric design or some experience in a design-focused role
• Bonus points if you have:
• Experience designing a tech product
• Dabbled with HTML / CSS or any other programming language
• Experience in non-product design categories; publishing, illustration, animation, print, photography, etc
• You have a strong portfolio with examples of customer-facing products
• You are comfortable working with modern web design tools (eg. Figma)
• You have an entrepreneurial mindset - you want to be working on exciting, big problems and understand the commercial reasons behind them
• You’re a self-starter who likes getting their hands dirty solving problems and making things happen in ambiguous environments
  These requirements are a guide as to what we’re looking for, but if you don’t have all of the skills listed above, that’s okay! Please don’t let that hold you back from applying if the role excites you.

We’re looking for a Junior UX/UI Designer who is passionate about designing exceptional user-centric experiences.
“Customer First” is one of our core company values, and as a member of our Product & Design team, we’ll look to you to achieve this through the creation of solutions that our customers love.
For us, this means working across the full design process from research to implementation, you’ll have the opportunity to develop the full suite of skills needed to become a well-rounded UX/UI Designer. You’ll be collaborating closely with Product Managers and Software Engineers, as we’ll look to get your designs in front of customers within your first few weeks.
You’ll work cross-functionally on some of our highest business priorities, where your work will have a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. This could look like playing a key role in the launch of a brand new product, or reshaping the look and feel of our company branding.
