* Drive strategic service design across portfolios, shaping journeys that align with business goals and championing the customer voice.
* Partner with cross-functional leaders in Product, Design, Tech, Ops, and Architecture to deliver joined‑up, scalable service solutions that meet real user needs.
* Own the definition, evolution and adoption of service blueprints and journey maps across the customer lifecycle, and develop operational models that enable rather than restrict.
* Work with design leadership to evolve service design methods, improve design operations, and drive adoption of AI‑enhanced tools to improve service quality and efficiency.
* Define end‑to‑end strategies, experience principles, frameworks, customer journeys and CX KPIs that connect digital, assisted, and real‑world touchpoints with clarity and consistency.
What you'll bring:
* Track record of leading service design and delivering impactful service design outcomes across large‑scale digital products, services, and operations.
* Expert‑level skills in journey mapping, service blueprinting, stakeholder mapping, workshop facilitation and systems thinking.
* Advanced use of journey maps, empathy maps, and insight repositories to embed customer needs throughout delivery.
* Mastery in accessibility, user research methods to understand customer problems and behaviours, and analytics tools (Usertesting, Adobe Analytics) to understand and improve journeys.
* Strong storytelling, stakeholder influence, and resilience in fast‑paced, evolving environments.
