- Demand & Investment Management: Contribute to the strategic planning process for the Customer Enablement division, translating strategic objectives into actionable plans and supporting demand shaping and prioritisation forums.




- Continuous Improvement & Innovation: Maintain an understanding of competitive positioning and collaborate with data, analytics, and design teams to continuously analyse customer interaction paths, drop-offs, and intent-mapping to optimise automated performance.

What You'll Bring

- Extensive Experience: Minimum of 10 years' commercial experience, including at least 10 years building contact centre capability within financial services (banking industry preferred). Experience in consulting is highly regarded.
- Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of contact centre technologies (including AI, GenAI, and Agentic systems), enterprise IT architecture, and the associated risks and compliance requirements.
- Strategic & Agile Methodologies: Deep expertise in strategic planning, business design, design thinking, customer experience, and Agile delivery. Agile qualifications are highly desirable, alongside a Bachelor's degree in Commerce, Business, Accounting, or a related discipline.
- Exceptional Stakeholder Management: Demonstrated success in influencing senior stakeholders within a large, complex, and commercial environment, coupled with highly developed verbal and written communication skills.
