This role sits at the heart of how colleagues experience People & HR Services at BT Group. You will lead the strategy, adoption, and continuous improvement of our HR contact ecosystem – including our core self‑service platform, One HR, and the contact channels that support colleague and manager queries across the business.
You will ensure colleagues can easily access the information and support they need, while enabling the wider People & HR Service Delivery team to operate with greater efficiency, consistency, and insight. As the accountable owner of the contact experience, you will optimise how colleagues find, understand, and interact with People & HR Services through a persona‑based approach. You will shape the end‑to‑end journey and embed a more proactive engagement model – shifting from reactive, inbound queries to targeted, data‑led outbound campaigns that drive awareness, increase adoption, and reduce repeat contact.
You will also play a key role in delivering People Change programmes, ensuring colleagues and line managers understand what is changing, why it matters, and what actions they need to take. This includes partnering with People & Culture, Digital, Internal Communications, and business stakeholders to deliver clear messaging, training, and interventions that support adoption and lasting behaviour change.
