Senior Product Designer

Hi We’re Legl.

Legl is building the operating system for modern legal services.

We help law firms and regulated businesses replace manual, fragmented workflows with intelligent software from client onboarding and compliance to payments, risk, and reporting.

Legal work is high-stakes. It’s regulated, complex, and deeply human. The software supporting it has historically been slow, manual and brittle. We believe it doesn’t have to be that way.

We’re backed by leading European VCs (Series B), scaling quickly, partnered with over 550 law firms including 40 of the UK’s top 200, launched in the UK and Australia - and entering our next phase of growth.

We Work Best When

• AI is the central-operating model: not a tool or a future plan - but assumed in the way we operate.

• Decisions live with people: you're trusted to make calls and own them.

• Think deeply, execute quickly: speed and rigour, not speed or rigour.

What You’ll Do

As a Senior Product Designer at Legl, you’ll:

• Own our design system and the craft bar across the whole platform.

• Own cross-platform UX end to end. You deeply understand customer problems and goals, you’re opinionated on what “good” looks like from a user experience perspective, and you back it up with outcomes.

• Detangle complex product and customer problems and translate them into prioritised, high-impact projects.

• Go deep on research, quickly. Get close to firms, dig into how the product is really used, and find the places that truly add value to our users.

• Treat AI as part of your craft, not a bolt-on. Get from a rough problem to a working prototype fast, and use it to pressure-test more ideas than a traditional process would let you.

• Make good, defensible calls at pace. Know when to trade polish for speed and when not to, and own the trade-off either way.

You’ll be trusted to make decisions and expected to stand behind them.

This Role Could Be a Great Fit If…

• You’re hands on and obsessed with customer problems. You ship the work fast, you don’t just direct it.

• You can point to real impact that Design unlocked: faster onboarding, higher adoption, deals won, etc.

• You hold strong views on UX - and can make defensible decisions at pace.

• You think in whole journeys across a platform, not one screen at a time.

• You thrive within ambiguity, bringing structure to a world of opportunity cost.

This Role Would Be a Bad Fit If…

• You want to direct design more than do it. This is a hands-on role. If you're looking to manage a team, set direction from a distance, or step back from the craft itself, this isn't that job (yet).

• You need consensus or certainty before you decide. We move at pace. If committing to a defensible call under ambiguity feels uncomfortable, or you need every decision validated before you make it, you'll find this hard.

• You need a well-defined brief and an established process. Much of this is greenfield and our products are still coming together from silos. If you can't bring your own structure to ambiguity, you'll be waiting for clarity that doesn't arrive.

• You only want the shiny, greenfield work. Owning the design system and holding the craft bar across the platform means unglamorous, foundational work too. If maintaining and raising quality everywhere isn't appealing, only the launches are, this will disappoint.

• You want the support structure of a big company. We're Series B and scaling across two markets. You'll often be the design voice in the room without specialists or a large team around you. If that sounds exposing rather than energising, the stage isn't right for you.
