Offer description

Our Product Design plays a critical role by delivering high‑quality, human‑centred experiences across a significant and complex portfolio, including our Originations, Adviser Online, and PropertyIQ platforms. We set the design vision, ensure consistency across journeys, and partner closely with Product, Engineering, and business teams to solve complex problems and create meaningful impact. This role is a key opportunity to help lead and elevate a talented design team—driving craft, culture, and strategic direction across a highly visible portfolio.

At Macquarie, our advantage is bringing together diverse people and empowering them to shape all kinds of possibilities.

You will utilise your strong stakeholder partnerships, advocating for design and aligning teams around the right problems. You will also champion innovation by guiding the team in leveraging AI and emerging technologies to enhance creativity, quality, and efficiency.


What You Offer
