Product Development Culture

We are problem solvers, not ticket takers.
We champion creative problem-solving and value autonomy, trust, and impactful outcomes over rigid processes. Delivering improvements rapidly, we engage in iterative 6-week cycles, addressing user needs and enabling technical innovation - balancing technical debt, bugs, and team growth. We are a continuous delivery focused group, shipping changes to production 150+ times per month.

At our core is the customer. Every solution we deliver is crafted with customer success in mind, building relationships that go beyond transactions and ensuring that as team members, we all prioritise customer success in every aspect of our work. We build software that delivers value for our users and resist the urge to over-engineer our solutions. We let our users and the data tell us where we go next

How You’ll Make An Impact

As our first dedicated UX Researcher, you will be responsible for establishing and embedding a research practice from the ground up. You’ll balance hands-on research with operationalising research across teams.

Over time, there will be an opportunity to grow the research function, but initially, your focus will be on scaling research impact by empowering Product Managers and Designers to conduct their own research while leading generative and strategic research studies yourself. You will also look to increase empathy and awareness of our customers and their patients across all departments of our business, ensuring we are delivering a world-class customer experience whatever the touchpoint.

Your research will directly shape our core SaaS product’s ( Dentally ) strategy across multiple regions, including the UK, Canada, and Australia. You’ll set up research tooling, build a research repository, and establish best practices, ensuring research is efficient, scalable, and deeply integrated into decision-making. You will also evangelise UX-focused KPIs such as CSAT, CES and NPS to ensure they’re well understood and are a valuable source of insight for all teams.

This position is fully remote , allowing you to work flexibly from anywhere in the UK!
