Why now?
Volvo Cars is on an ambitious journey to redefine what it means to give people freedom to move in the most innovative times in the mobility industry.

We are seeking a UX Manager - Product offer and pricing to expand our team to support creating useful, efficient tools for our online e-commerce partners.

What you'll do
In a new role on a new team, Design Manager, UX—Product Offer & Pricing will redefine what it means to buy a car online or at retailers by creating new systems that capture and enable end-to-end publishing of all of the products and offers at Volvo Cars. You'll be part of elevating user experience in collaboration with stakeholders in product and engineering.

You'll help the team see the entire retail landscape of the Volvo ecosystem and create buying and experiences for customers that are simple, seamless, and thoughtful. You'll advocate for the user and exceptional design with a high level of craft.

You’ll also contribute to the evolution of our Enterprise Design System, helping guide the internal platform our enterprise products are built on, everything from high-level design principles down to component implementation in coordination with other Design Managers and leads within the broader team.

Who you are
We believe that you are a person who thinks big at the system level and has worked extensively using insights from data to inform and personalize user experience in internal systems and customer-facing retail, whether that's in automotive or in another data-rich industry like banking/fintech, health and medical, on-demand services, or logistics companies in which shoppers both shop online and in brick-and-mortar stores and continue to deepen their relationship with the brand post-purchase. You are familiar with working with internal tools and enterprise applications during the customer’s purchasing journey.

* Strong UX fundamentals and user-centered design practices.
* Data modeling experience within UX, including architectural planning for complex systems.
* The ability to create a logical, consistent, and elegant structure from messy complexity, and to transition to a scalable set of global systems.
* Experience working with mature design systems.
