Translate research findings into practical, actionable recommendations that inform design and product decisions, influence roadmaps, and help teams prioritise the changes that deliver the greatest value for users. Champion the voice of the user across the organisation, fostering empathy, promoting user‑centred thinking, and ensuring user needs remain central throughout the design and delivery process. Strengthen the quality and consistency of research practice, choosing appropriate methods, ensuring research is robust and ethical, and continually improving how we work to support better decision‑making. The main things you will be doing are: Planning and running user research that delivers real insight, using the right methods, involving your multidisciplinary team, and turning findings into clear, actionable guidance. Embedding research into agile delivery, working closely with designers, product managers and developers to support iterative design and ensure user needs drive each stage of development. Championing inclusive research, ensuring a diverse range of users take part in studies and helping create services that are accessible and usable for everyone. Strengthening our research practice, defining the scope of studies, applying good standards, seeking guidance when needed, and continually improving how we work.
