  • CX strategy implementation: Help translate strategic priorities into actionable initiatives and support the delivery of customer-focused improvements across the organisation.
  • Solution design and delivery: Collaborate with UX/UI designers, service designers, product teams and technology partners to develop and deliver solutions aligned with customer experience standards.
