Overview

Job description

Are you looking for a new challenge?
Fancy helping us shape the future of motor insurance?
Prima could be the place for you. 

Since 2015, we’ve been using our love of data and tech to rethink motor insurance and bring drivers a great experience at a great price. Our story began in Italy, where we’ve quickly become the number one online motor insurance provider. In fact, we’re trusted by over 4 million drivers. And now we’re expanding to help millions more drivers in the UK and Spain.

To help fuel that growth, we need a Product Designer to join our Design System team. 

This team is guided by what our customers want. As part of this team, you’ll help us turn user needs into seamless solutions – informed by our design, data and business strategy. From discovery to delivery, you’ll work closely with designers, engineers and analysts to build solutions that are beautiful, functional and measurable.

This team enables consistency, quality, and accessibility across Prima’s products.
As part of this team, you’ll help scale design through a shared system of components, patterns, and guidelines that support designers and engineers in building cohesive and accessible experiences.

Excited to make an impact? Here are the details
What you’ll do:
  • Design System Development: Contribute to the evolution of Prima’s Design System by designing, documenting, and maintaining scalable UI components and interaction patterns.
  • Design Guidelines: Help define visual and interaction standards that ensure a consistent experience across all products and platforms.
  • Accessibility & Inclusivity: Design with accessibility in mind (WCAG, color contrast, keyboard interaction) and promote inclusive design practices across teams.
  • Component Lifecycle: Collaborate with developers to manage component creation, updates, and deprecation following versioning and contribution workflows.
  • Documentation & Communication: Create clear design documentation and usage guidelines in Figma and Notion to ensure system adoption and ease of use.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with engineers, product designers, product managers, and content specialists to ensure alignment between design and code implementations.
  • Advocacy & Education: Support internal teams in adopting and using the Design System through reviews, feedback sessions, and shared learning.
  • Continuous Improvement: Keep up-to-date with industry standards, design tooling, and accessibility guidelines to evolve the system over time.
    • What we’re looking for:
  • Experience: Mid with 2–3 years of experience in product or system design, preferably contributing to or maintaining a design system.
  • Portfolio: A portfolio that demonstrates deep expertise in UI design foundations, systems thinking, and consistency across complex products.
  • Tools: Proficiency in Figma (Auto Layout, Variants, Tokens, Component Libraries). Knowledge of prototyping and handoff best practices.
  • Accessibility: Awareness of accessibility standards (WCAG, ARIA) and ability to design components and patterns that meet those standards.
  • Design Systems Mindset: Experience designing in a scalable way, understanding of modularity, scalability, and design tokens. Experience with documentation tools like Notion, Zeroheight, or Storybook.
  • Collaboration: Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate with developers and designers to ensure design-system-to-code alignment.
  • Continuous Learning: Curiosity for exploring new design methods, accessibility improvements, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Language: Fluency in Italian and English.
    • Nice-to-Have:
  • Knowledge of HTML/CSS and basic understanding of how design tokens, variables, and components are implemented in code.
  • Familiarity with agile and cross-functional workflows between design and development.
  • Interest in accessibility, design ops, or UI engineering topics.
  • Previous experience collaborating with front-end engineers or contributing to an open-source design system is a plus.
    • 🤸 Work Your Way: Enjoy full flexibility – work from home, the office or a mix of both. Plus, work from anywhere for up to 30 days a year.

    🏁 Grow with us: We may move fast at Prima, but we move together. Get access to learning resources, mentorship and a growth plan tailored to you.
