You'll be comfortable working across the full service lifecycle and able to communicate complex ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Experience of journey mapping, service blueprinting, business process analysis and stakeholder engagement is essential.

Desirable requirements include experience working in Higher Education or another large, complex organisation, together with familiarity with Agile delivery and relevant qualifications in Service Design, UX or Customer Experience.
