What is this role about?

Loan Servicing at Bondora owns the entire post-loan experience — from the moment a loan is issued until it is fully repaid or recovered. This area ensures that customers clearly understand their loan, can manage payments through intuitive self-service tools, and receive the right support and communication when challenges arise.

As a Senior Service Designer, you will design and optimise end-to-end customer journeys across all our markets, creating seamless experiences that span digital and operational touchpoints. Your primary focus will be on loan servicing, shaping how customers manage and interact with their loans throughout the entire lifecycle.

You will collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Operations, and Business stakeholders to evolve services that balance customer needs, operational efficiency, regulatory requirements, and scalability. Taking a systems-level perspective, you’ll bring clarity to complex service flows and translate them into intuitive, structured, and scalable experiences.

This role offers a high degree of ownership, exposure to diverse and complex challenges (technology, regulation, operations, customer experience), and an environment that values collaboration, critical thinking, and impact.

Your main responsibilities:

• Own and evolve end-to-end service journeys across the loan lifecycle.
• Apply systems thinking to identify structural improvements beyond surface-level UX fixes.
• Translate complex regulatory and operational constraints into intuitive customer experiences.
• Partner closely with Product and Engineering to ensure solutions are both desirable and feasible.
• Prototype, test, and iterate on new or improved concepts in an evidence-based way
  service concepts, iterating based on feedback.
• Conduct and synthesise user and stakeholder research to inform design decisions.
• Create service blueprints, journey maps, and system diagrams to support implementation.
• Facilitate workshops and co-design sessions to align stakeholders and identify opportunities.

• Systems thinking skills, with the ability to analyse and improve complex service ecosystems.

• Experience prototyping and testing service concepts using an iterative, evidence-based approach.
• Structured, user-centred problem-solving approach informed by data and research
• Strong understanding of product and UX design processes.
• Ability to move confidently between strategic thinking and hands-on execution
