At Viaplay Group, we entertain millions of people every day with our streaming services, radio networks, TV channels & production companies. We make life more entertaining by enabling the best and broadcast experiences - from live sports to movies to series to music and our own original shows. Now we’ve set our aspirations even higher to become the international entertainment provider with our five-year expansion plan. As part of this, we’re launching Viaplay in 10 new markets by the end of 2023. With a global appeal, we continue to look for the best and brightest minds to join us on our journey.

The position

The role will focus on one of our key areas when it comes to fulfilling our vision of ‘Becoming the international streaming challenger’. With the mission to attract and convert our visitors on site with an irresistible first impression

This Product Designer role will be focused on elevating the product across mobile, web and TV. You will be working across all parts of the customer experience, collaborating tightly within a cross-functional team, but also looking at ensuring best design practices and processes. You will work to ensure a brand-wide consistency and delightful experience for our customers now and in the future.

We value collaboration and we see the Product Designer as a key role that brings the whole team together to solve our user's pain points and create a product they love.  

The journey ahead 

In the last year and a half, we have brought Viaplay to Iceland, the Baltic States, Poland, the US, the Netherlands, the UK and the US. Viaplay is now available in 16 countries, which means that we have many challenges to achieve. We are also creating a new and vibrant hub in Barcelona that will allow us to grow in the coming years. Do not miss the opportunity to join us and be part of this adventure together with other brave colleagues.

What we offer you

• We’ve got the basics covered (and then some)! 30 days of paid vacation every year, flexible work arrangements (that fully support hybrid set ups – ELIGIBLE ROLES ONLY) and extra compensation on top of a parental pay lift.
• Your wellbeing matters. We have an attractive pension and insurance scheme with full health care coverage should you need it.
• A safe space to grow and up-skill with the freedom to try new things in autonomous teams. Our learning culture puts you in the driver’s seat of your own development, while always making sure you feel supported with regular knowledge-sharing sessions, technical training, mentorship opportunities and peer-to-peer networks.
  
• An innovative environment with Hack Days, not once, but twice a year. This week-long initiative allows you to think outside the box and deliver creative, technical solutions that (more often than not) go on to be implemented, either in our product or our ways of working.
  
• A genuinely international and diverse group of colleagues to connect with. We’re striving towards a 50:50 gender balance & we’re not far off – plus last time we checked, we have more than 60 different nationalities across our nine offices!
  
• Entertainment is what we love, and entertainment is what we do. So, unlimited access to Viaplay seems only fair for you to get to know the product – including live sports & pay per view events, new release movie rentals, linear channels and more.
