<p>As the Head of Design, you will lead our design organisation, owning the design quality of every customer journey end-to-end — how our client-facing touchpoints across product, web and more look, feel, and function at every step — in close partnership with Product, who own the journeys and priorities, and Marketing, who lead brand strategy and identity.</p>
<p>This is a broad executive mandate where you will own not only the craft of design but its measurable impact on the business. You will champion design excellence, build deep partnerships with Product and Marketing to ensure a single, cohesive experience from first impression to daily use, and grow a world-class remote design culture. Your mission is to translate complex financial and cryptocurrency concepts into a beautiful, cohesive, and trust-building experience — and to demonstrate, through outcomes, that great design is working.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Responsibilities</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Design Strategy and Vision.</strong> Define, champion, and execute the long-term design vision for Xapo's client-facing touchpoints across mobile and web — treating measurable user-experience quality, not just aesthetics, as the standard of success.<br><br></li>
<li><strong>Design Performance &amp; Outcomes.</strong> Own the metrics that demonstrate design's business impact such as task-completion and speed in core journeys and design-system adoption, reporting on these quarterly at the executive level.<br><br></li>
<li><strong>Operational Leadership of the Design Function.</strong> Run design as a fully accountable business function, owning headcount planning, prioritisation, and delivery, so the organization scales predictably alongside Product and Engineering.<br><br></li>
