Summary
Matt Grannell is a Principal Product Designer with 11 years of experience helping early-stage companies find product-market fit and scale design teams and practice. Based in the UK, he progressed from first design hire to Principal at Accurx, where he helped grow design from 0 to 15, shaped the product vision for a national health communications platform, and led high‑impact strategic initiatives. He blends hands-on design and engineering skills from roles at Entrepreneur First and CharlieHR, shipping internal tools and customer-facing products that turned early ideas into thousands of paying customers. Matt is equally comfortable coaching and hiring — he’s led instructional sessions at Code First Girls and built a supportive, quality-driven design culture. He brings a pragmatic, outcome-focused approach to socially useful products, combining product strategy, execution, and a rare history of growing teams from first hire to leadership.
