Messy spend management is tricky business. And tedious processes are a lose‐lose situation for all involved, not just finance. At Pleo, we're changing that. We build spend solutions that make managing money seamless, empowering, and surprisingly effective for finance teams and employees alike—with a vision to help all businesses 'go beyond'.The word 'Pleo' actually means 'more than you'd expect', and living by that mantra has been the secret to our success over the last 10 years.Now, we're at a pivotal moment in our journey; every move we make has a direct impact on our 40,000+ customers, our business, and our collective success. We need people who take pride in uncovering customer needs, who turn complex problems into simple solutions, challenge the way things are done (respectfully), and always aim high. With great ambitions driving us forward, we can't say we've got this whole thing figured out. And frankly, that's half the fun! What we can say is that we're a driven, progressive, and, importantly, a kind bunch of 850+ people from over 100 nationalities, all committed to delivering the future of business spending, together.Intro We're looking for a Senior or Staff Product Designer to join our Product Design team at Pleo. Pleo is changing how companies spend. We give teams the autonomy to buy what they need, with the controls that finance teams actually trust. More than 40,000 companies across Europe rely on Pleo to handle expenses, cards, and reimbursements. And we're just getting started.You'll be joining with a focus on either Treasury or Spend Control - two critical areas that work together to give customers confidence over their company finances. Whether you're designing the infrastructure that lets customers manage cash, accounts, and transfers with ease, or the controls and policies that help finance teams govern spending without slowing anyone down, you'll be building experiences that define how customers trust and use Pleo.If you're excited by design work that handles real financial complexity without making customers feel it - and where clarity is the craft - this is the role.Who You'll Work With You'll report to our Director of Product Design and sit within a cross‐functional business area alongside product management, engineering, data, and content design. You'll work closely with research to understand how customers navigate and adopt our financial features.Depending on which team you join, you'll either be embedded in Treasury or Spend Control, but you'll collaborate across both as we build a cohesive financial experience.What You'll Be Doing At Pleo, we're building products that give customers confidence over their company money - whether that's moving it, growing it, or controlling how it's spent.As a Senior or Staff Product Designer, you'll own end‐to‐end design for a meaningful part of the experience. You'll work on the moments that determine whether a customer understands their balances, moves money with confidence, sets up policies that actually work, or adopts features that make their financial operations smarter.In Treasury, that means cash management, transfers, automatic transfer rules, alerts, investment accounts, and multi‐currency experiences.In Spend Control, that means policy engines, approval workflows, spending limits, card controls, and the frameworks that help finance teams delegate trust without losing oversight.Both areas share a common goal: turning financial complexity into experiences that feel clear, trustworthy, and effortless.You'll work in a highly collaborative environment alongside product, engineering, and content design, moving fast and making evidence‐based decisions. This isn't a role about making finance look pretty, it's about understanding how customers think about money, designing experiences that build trust and clarity, and shipping work that drives adoption of features that matter.Specifically, you'll:Own end‐to‐end design for key surfaces within your team's area - whether that's money movement, policy configuration, or something in betweenShape the design strategy for your area, working from first principles and customer insightPartner with data and research to define what success looks like, instrument your work, and close the loop on what you've shippedDrive feature adoption through thoughtful introduction patterns, helping existing customers discover and understand new capabilities as they roll outUse Pleo's design system (Telescope) fluently and contribute patterns back to it when you spot gaps or opportunitiesBring content and localisation thinking into your work early.

You've worked on money movement, account management, spending controls, approval workflows, or similarly high‐stakes transactional experiences, and you understand the disciplineA portfolio that demonstrates strong craft and measurable impact. We want to see the thinking behind the work, not just the final screensComfort operating in a highly quantitative environment. You know how to read adoption and engagement data, form a hypothesis, and design to test itExperience working closely with data science, analytics, and research partners and knowing when to lean on eachStrong communication skills and the ability to bring partners along on your design rationale.

You know how to balance thoroughness with velocity, especially when the domain demands getting the details rightComfort with ambiguity. You can define the problem as well as solve itYou've done things like...Redesigned a financial flow - transfers, account setups, policy configurations, or similar - and shipped measurable improvements to completion rates or feature adoptionRun a structured design experiment (formed the hypothesis, designed the variants, analysed the results, and decided what to do next)Worked in a multi‐market or multi‐locale product and considered localisation as a design constraint from the startIdentified a structural problem in the user journey and made the case for addressing it at the right level of scopeMentored other designers or contributed to how your team thinks about growth design, not just your own outputWhy this role might be a good fit for youYou want to design the experiences that turn financial complexity into understandable, trustworthy experiences for Pleo's customersYou find interest in the intersection of trust, clarity, and business impact. You understand that in finance, good design = customer confidenceYou like working with data but you don't mistake data for insight. You know when to run a test and when to make a callYou want autonomy with accountability. Real ownership of a product area, with the expectation that you drive it, not just contribute to itThis role is not a good fit for you if:You prefer to keep domain complexity at arm's length. Both Treasury and Spend Control are nuanced spaces - you'll need to go deep to do them wellYou want to work in isolation. This team is deliberately cross‐functional.
