who we are

At TrueLayer, we’re building a global open banking platform that’s changing how money moves and so much more. We make payments and refunds instant, account data accessible and verification seamless — all so innovators in every industry can build better financial experiences for their users. 

To date, we’ve raised $270 million from world-renowned investors including Stripe, Tiger Global, Addition and Tencent. We’ve got offices in London, Milan, Dublin and Sydney. And we’re trusted by industry leaders like Revolut, Cazoo and Trading 212… though we’re not stopping here. 

Our vision is a financial system that works for everyone. To make that happen, we’re creating original and innovative products that will remove the friction from finance for good. We’re seriously scaling our infrastructure, we’re entering new territories all the time, we’re cornering a whole new category — and we’d like your help to get us there.

Experience Design at TrueLayer is the place where visionary designers, creative developers and innovative copywriters work together to build user centred omni-channel journeys. Our mission is to build a recognisable brand and a consistent experience. To make this a reality we have built “Prisma” — our own Design System.

Prisma is a component library and brand guidelines documentation tool that simplifies and standardises brand and UX/UI practices across the whole organisation. From our API interfaces to our marketing campaigns and collateral — almost everything in TrueLayer is built with Prisma to guarantee a set of recurring patterns that remove cognitive load from the user journey and build better experiences.

To develop Prisma to new highs, we’re now looking for a highly motivated Brand Designer who is continuously looking to push their abilities. Someone that is ready to carve their own path through ambiguity and bring structure and processes that will permit us to scale. A designer that is proactive, constantly proposes solutions and quickly understands technical complexities to create strong narratives around them. A design “nerd” that thrives when branding, guidelines, and components creation are the core of what they do.

In return, you will have the opportunity to work across a wide variety of projects and mediums using the latest tools, processes and technologies, as well as help developing a brand new, cutting-edge design system we’ve been building in-house. In light of our upcoming global expansion, the challenges will be many, but their impact will be pivotal.
