The person in this role works alongside operational teams to develop change concepts, assists in building strong business cases, and clearly explains the reasons driving change—whether these stem from regulation, compliance, operations, or strategy. A central part of the position involves managing the Business Engagement & Service Improvement team, which includes Service Improvement Coordinators and Root Cause Analysts, making sure every initiative is grounded in customer feedback and data-driven insight. This involves growing the maturity of Root Cause Analysis (RCA) capabilities through recognised approaches such as Customer Journey Mapping and ongoing improvement techniques, while strengthening the organisation's ability to solve problems and turning insights from the RCA process into measurable improvements to service.
Beyond RCA insight, the role holder partners closely with the Customer Experience – Operations Team, the Insights Team, and People & Organisational Development (POD) to convert feedback from customers and staff into tangible service enhancements and initiatives that shift organisational culture. The Business Engagement & Service Improvement team also empowers the wider business to deliver change independently when suitable, offering facilitation, direction, and access to relevant tools. Responsibilities include running reviews, performing gap analyses, and heading working groups that identify and shape new initiatives feeding into the broader Portfolio.
Working alongside the Head of Change & Service Improvement, the role holder helps identify, forecast, and plan demand, contributing insight to how the overall Portfolio is prioritised and sequenced. A key part of the job is managing what stakeholders expect regarding delivery timelines and scope, keeping change well-governed, strategically consistent, and impactful.
