Requirements

  • Service design mindset - when approaching a problem you take a wide view, looking front and backstage, and end to end by default. You are then able to identify specific areas of opportunity for more detailed analysis, both strategic (supporting commercial goals, balancing feasibility with desirability) and user-focussed, ensuring a human-centred approach.

  • Comfortable facilitator who can bring together and engage others in your service design work in workshops and collaborative sessions.
  • A chion of the customer throughout whilst staying in touch with the business requirements.
  • You set the standard for your peers and the organisation.
  • Established ‘design thinker' with empathy for user needs, a willingness to explore ideas and implement a ‘test and learn' approach before launch.
  • Strong storytelling skills, capable of influencing and encouraging stakeholders and peers to adopt and buy into something that was previously unfamiliar.
  • Accustomed to working in an FCA regulated business is a bonus.
  • Adept in managing complexity across multiple streams of work.
  • Knowledgeable across our toolkit that includes Figma and UserTesting.com.
  • A chion for accessibility who acknowledges the needs of users with different backgrounds, abilities, cultures, and environments.
  • A motivator of peers and the ongoing progression of their craft, while identifying new ways to develop skills to keep up with marketplace, industry and technology trends.

  • You'll provide direction for service design across products and services at Bupa to improve the customer experience.
  • Support and inspire others in the team, up-skilling and training them in service design thinking and methods.
  • Generate concepts, proposals and plans for new service propositions, or to evolve and improve existing services.
  • As a voice of the customer you'll build advocacy amongst key stakeholders - evangelising the principles and processes of service design.
  • You will be confident leading projects and task managing people within those projects.
  • You will contribute to playbacks, design crits and other communities of practice sessions to highlight your discipline's work, enable constructive feedback and elevate the quality of the craft.
  • Helping to maintain and improve the inherent pillars of our team's culture; psychological safety, celebrating success, and learning from each other.
  • Confident mediation across the demands of a business, the needs of the customer and the feasibility of the tech stack to design the right thing and design the thing right.
