Description
About 1st Formations
At 1st Formations, we empower entrepreneurs to start, run, and grow their businesses with confidence.
Running a business shouldn’t be slowed down by company formation, statutory compliance, accounting, or payroll. From day one, these essentials should be seamless, reliable, and intelligently handled — freeing founders to focus on building and scaling.
We’re a leading UK provider of company formation and compliance services, building a modern, fully integrated technology platform that supports founders at every stage of their journey. Our platform brings together formation, compliance, accounting, payroll, and ongoing business support in one cohesive experience.
No stitched-together services.
No legacy workflows disguised as software.
Just a single, scalable platform built for ambitious founders who want to move fast, stay compliant, and grow with confidence.
Why Join Us Now?
You’ll be joining a business with strong momentum, clear direction, and real opportunity for progression.
We’re looking for a collaborative and detail-oriented Product Designer who’s passionate about crafting intuitive, user centered experiences. You’ll play a key role in designing innovative products that balance user needs with business goals, contributing to the evolution of our design system and ensuring consistency across our product suite.
As a thoughtful problem solver, you’ll work independently and cross-functionally—partnering with product managers, engineers, marketing, and compliance—to translate requirements into elegant design solutions. You’ll use data, user insights, and testing to inform your work, while proactively QA’ing builds and iterating based on feedback.
This is a hands-on role in a fast-paced environment where strong communication, ownership, and a deep empathy for users are essential. If you’re excited about shaping impactful digital experiences and refining design from concept to execution, we’d love to hear from you.
