UX at Hemnet

Our users really want to help us to improve our product, all the time. I guess it’s because a lot of swedes love being on Hemnet, this makes the user research parts so much easier” - Niklas, User Research director at Hemnet.

At Hemnet, product discovery, UX and user research is a central part of product development. There are lots of opportunities to influence what we do and how we work to explore design problems and involve the user.

We have the luxury of having several million users, many of them very engaged with a willingness to help us make the product better. We meet our users regularly, at least every second week, and there is also room for research and experimentation using tools like HotJar, Google Analytics, Google Optimize and Tableau.

Join us on our mission to make more people find a place to call home!

At Hemnet, we believe that our most important task is to make everyone's journey to find a new home as smooth, easy and efficient as possible. We’re the number one housing platform in Sweden, and as such we have tens of millions visits, every month.

We are now looking for a UX designer to join one of our product teams, consisting of developers, digital analyst, Product manager and Developer manager.

What you’ll do:

- Support product teams in designing effective, accessible and appealing user interfaces.
- A lot of focus on the user research parts and continuous discovery.
- Lead and iterate around design, and facilitate workshops both with team members and other stakeholders.
- Work in a cross-functional team together with developers, with fast decision making and an experimental mindset.
- Collaborate in the Hemnet UX group, sharing ideas at an early stage, giving and receiving design feedback.
