About us

At Arbor, we're on a mission to transform the way schools work for the better.

We believe in a future of work in schools where being challenged doesn't mean being burnt out and overworked. Where data guides progress without overwhelming staff. And where everyone working in a school is reminded why they got into education every day.

Our School Management Tools are already making a difference in over 7,000 schools and trusts. Giving time and power back to staff, turning data into clear, actionable insights, and supporting happier working days.

At the heart of our brand is a recognition that the challenges schools face today aren't just about efficiency, outputs and productivity - but about creating happier working lives for the people who drive education everyday: the staff. We want to make schools more joyful places to work, as well as learn.

We're a growing, central design team embedded within a wider product and engineering organisation. As we scale our impact, we're seeking a Senior Product Designer with a passion for emerging technologies. This role focuses on developing and refining AI-driven capabilities aimed at fundamentally changing the way that schools work. You will play a key role in delivering intuitive AI-driven features within our product and verifying it translates into tangible improvements in our users daily tasks.

• Work closely with Product teams to define problems, generate hypotheses, and validate solutions through iterative design processes
• Design and prototype wireframes, user flows, and high-fidelity UI mockups to communicate design ideas effectively
• Explore AI-enhanced tooling to accelerate design exploration to rapidly generate and test ideas
• Create intuitive, visually appealing, and accessible user interfaces for our users
• Develop and maintain a deep understanding of user needs, business objectives, and the education sector to create impactful design solutions
• Plan, conduct and analyse both quantitative and qualitative user research to make data-driven design decisions
• Translate complex workflows and requirements into simple, effective, and scalable user experiences
• Effectively communicate design rationale, process, and decisions to stakeholders and cross-functional teams
• Maintain and evolve the design system to ensure consistency and efficiency across products
• Understanding how AI-powered tools will help extend Design capabilities beyond traditional boundaries

We're looking for a practical and proactive Designer who has experience turning complex requirements into intuitive, elegant solutions that solve real user problems. Beyond that, we'd love to see:

• Strong experience in user-centered design processes, from research to final execution
• Experience designing for generative AI, specifically Agent or Chat experiences
• Comfortable making a few styling commits (CSS)
• Experience working in agile environments with cross-functional teams including engineering, product management, and marketing
• Strong decision-making skills, adaptability, and the ability to influence teams
• A proactive approach to learning and applying new design methodologies
• A curious and collaborative mindset, able to think on your feet, likes to move fast
• Experience working with remote teams.

The chance to work alongside a team of hard-working, passionate people in a role where you'll see the impact of your work everyday. We also offer:

• A dedicated wellbeing team who champion initiatives such as mindfulness, lunch n learns, manager training, mental health first aid training and much more!
• 32 days holiday (plus Bank Holidays). This is made up of 25 days annual leave plus 7 extra company wide days given over Easter, Summer & Christmas
• Life Assurance paid out at 3x annual salary
• Comprehensive wellness benefit provided by AIG Smart Health, which provides a 24/7 virtual GP service, Mental health support, Counselling, and personalised Health Checks
• Private Dental Insurance with Bupa

• All of our roles champion flexible working and we are happy to discuss what this means to you
• Social committees that plan team, office and company wide events to bring people together and celebrate success
• Dedicated professional development training budget (CPD courses, upskilling resources, professional memberships etc)
• Volunteer with a charity of your choice for a day each year
• Dog friendly offices!
