Lead Product Designer - Szallas Group

Lead Product Designer - Szallas Group Warszawa

At Szallas Group, we develop booking platforms that help millions of users plan and book trips across Central and Eastern Europe. We connect travelers with hotels, apartments, guesthouses, and owners of tourist properties, giving them convenient access to a wide range of accommodation options — whether for a weekend getaway, holiday, business trip, or short city break.

Our story began in 2007 in Hungary with the launch of szallas.hu. Over time, it became a local leader in the accommodation booking market. Further organic growth, together with the acquisition of additional businesses, enabled us to expand our operations into new markets.

Today, we operate in Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Romania. For several years, we have been part of Wirtualna Polska Holding, one of the largest technology and media groups in Poland.

Requirements:

• Min. 6-8 years of experience in UX/UI design for digital products, including independent design of views and paths for complex/composed e-commerce platforms or paid products.

Nice to have:
