Join Zurich at a pivotal moment in our technology transformation journey as we strive to become Australia’s Leading Digital Insurer. As a Senior Product Designer within our Zx team, you’ll play a key role in shaping the next evolution of digital insurance experiences. This is a greenfield opportunity—combining the agility and innovation of a start-up with the backing of a global enterprise. You’ll collaborate with empowered product teams to reimagine how insurance can deliver value, delight, and simplicity for our customers, all while contributing to Zurich’s 2030 vision of being a product-led, AI-first insurer.
You’ll take a human-centred, insight-driven approach to digital product design. You’ll work closely with product and engineering to deliver high-impact outcomes, helping to make Zx a platform for reimagining the insurance industry and setting the benchmark for digital customer experiences in Australia.
You will also be responsible for the following:
