JOB DESCRIPTION

Join a fast-moving Experience Design team focused on scaling service design and journey mapping across the enterprise. This role is ideal for a hands-on Service Designer who enjoys creating high-quality journey artifacts, improving how work gets done, and partnering with stakeholders in a complex, regulated environment.

Responsibilities

  • Facilitate discovery sessions to uncover the people, systems, tools, and processes involved in end-to-end journeys
  • Organize research findings, stakeholder input, and business context into clear service design frameworks
  • Create journey maps and service blueprints that capture customer, advisor, and internal experiences
  • Identify friction points, opportunity areas, and key moments that matter across experiences
  • Maintain journey artifacts as a reliable source of truth that can be updated over time
  • Develop repeatable templates, methods, and workflows to support journey production at scale
  • Build scalable, shareable artifacts using component-driven or code-based approaches when helpful
  • Create and maintain a library of blueprint and journey map templates for different levels of detail and scope
  • Help establish an AI-ready production process that can be owned and governed by the design strategy team after handoff

Skills

  • Strong background in service design, experience strategy, and/or journey mapping
  • Proven ability to lead workshops, facilitate discussions, and educate stakeholders on design methods
  • Experience creating repeatable processes, not just one-time deliverables
  • Systems thinking and the ability to connect customer experience to operational and technical ecosystems
  • Comfort creating production-ready artifacts that are clear, structured, and easy to share
  • Hands-on experience with tools such as FigJam, Figma, Claude Design, or similar platforms
  • Familiarity with building custom skills using agentic AI tools such as Claude and ChatGPT
  • Ability to work effectively in a complex, regulated environment
  • Strong communication, collaboration, and stakeholder management skills

Preferred Skills

  • Experience in financial services or another highly regulated industry
  • Exposure to code-based or component-driven production methods for design artifacts
  • Experience creating scalable design systems, templates, or reusable workflows
  • Ability to balance craft quality with speed, consistency, and operational efficiency
