    Partnering with VCs and early-stage businesses to recruit senior design talent

    Hey folks - I am excited to announce Zest Search's latest retained client 🚀 We've partnered with Kittl, a Series B design tooling scale-up with over $45mil in funding from top investors, including Left Lane Capital, IVP, Speedinvest, and many more 👀 First up, we are seeking a Head of Product Design who will have the unique opportunity to create and implement features used by millions of designers around the world 🔥 They're looking for a hands-on design leader who is still close to the craft and can lead a small but experienced team of senior product designers while reporting to the co-founder/CPO. They've also been product/design-led from day one, so they have a high bar for design! You'll need experience shipping SaaS productivity products while leading a product design team. This would suit a Principal/Design Lead looking to step up into more of a management/leadership position or a head of/director looking to get back closer to the craft. They have a hybrid working setup in Berlin/London or the potential to be fully remote from other European cities or the US East Coast (on a case-by-case basis) Get in touch with your CV/portfolio!

    After testing a new service offering from Q3 last year and seeing the initial success that our Product and Design advisors are having, we're now officially launching Zest Advisory 🥳 Zest Advisory was created to assist founders in addressing a range of business challenges by connecting them with Product and Design Executives on a fractional basis. This allows them to tap into our network of experienced leaders, without having to commit to the expense of a full-time C-suite hire. If you're interested in learning more or scheduling a confidential chat with one of our advisors, please feel free to reach out to our founders Luke Pallett and Allen Bastow. #advisors #fractional #productadvisor #designadvisor

    We are pleased to announce that Zest Search is working on a new salary insights report. This report aims to provide detailed information about salaries, equity, bonuses, ideal days in the office, and common reasons why people are considering leaving their current jobs. The goal is to encourage transparency in the product and design market. Last year, we released our first salary report, which focused on salaries for product and design talent. We are excited to build on that success and provide even more insights for candidates, employers, and VCs. Having collected data from interviews conducted over the last six months and responses to our salary survey so far, we now have insights from 1,023 individuals. If you're a product and design professional, then we'd appreciate your contribution! #salaryinsights #productinsights #designinsights
