Job Description

Information about the position

The Content Design team is part of Vinted's Design & Research organisation. Six Content Designers are fully embedded within multidisciplinary domains, working closely with Product Design, Research, Product, and Engineering to deliver high-quality, user-centric product content. While embedded, the team maintains a shared vision and unified standards.

As Content Design Lead, you'll elevate the impact of content design across Vinted by driving quality, building scalable systems, and increasing operational efficiency. You'll shape the direction of the function through standards, tooling, and craft infrastructure that enables a distributed team to do their best work. Depending on the organisation's evolving structure, this may involve direct people leadership, a guild model built on craft authority, or both.

In this position, you’ll

• Set the quality bar for content design across Vinted and create the conditions for consistent, member-centric outcomes.
• Build craft infrastructure: frameworks, guidelines, tooling, and content systems that scale across embedded teams.
• Deepen how content design is embedded in the product development lifecycle across Product, Design, Engineering, and Research.
• Enable the growth of Content Designers through direct leadership, mentorship, or community-building depending on team structure.
• Define and track metrics that demonstrate content design's value to the broader organisation.
• Drive operational efficiency and reduce lead times across the function.

About you

• Proven expert-level experience (typically 8+ years) in shaping user-facing product content, with a strong portfolio of end-to-end content solutions.
• Demonstrated ability to lead a content design function through direct management, craft authority, or guild-style leadership.
• Proven track record establishing or maturing content design practice: standards, processes, and frameworks at scale.
• Systems thinker who sees tooling and process as levers for quality, not overhead.
• Strong ability to influence at all levels across cross-functional partners and leadership.
• Proficient with modern tools used in Content creation and management; experienced with experimentation and A/B testing.
• Clear perspective on where AI adds value to content without compromising craft.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and shaping the role as the function evolves.
