Are you an experienced Customer Experience professional who can turn product strategy, proposition requirements and customer insight into meaningful, measurable change?
Can you take ownership of complex end-to-end customer journeys, translating strategic priorities into clear delivery plans and bringing teams together to make improvements happen?
Could you combine customer focus with strong delivery capability, ensuring products and propositions translate into better experiences and outcomes?
You’ll help shape how people experience StepChange, taking strategic product and proposition requirements and leading how these are brought to life across our end-to-end client and partner journeys.
While our Product and Proposition teams shape what we offer and set the strategic direction, you’ll take that direction and lead how it translates into the customer experience – from journey design and prioritisation through to delivery, implementation and continuous optimisation.
You’ll bring together customer insight, data, product strategy and operational expertise to create clear journey roadmaps and practical delivery plans. Working across Product, Digital, Operations, Data, Service and third-party teams, you’ll provide the direction and momentum needed to move priorities through to delivery and create measurable value for our clients, colleagues and the charity.
This isn’t a customer experience role focused solely on insight or journey mapping. You’ll be accountable for turning product and proposition priorities into delivered customer experiences, shaping the journey, setting priorities, influencing decisions, overcoming barriers and continually improving performance.
Your role
You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of client and partner journeys, leading how product and proposition priorities are translated into experiences that work effectively for our clients and the organisation.
You’ll
- Own the design, roadmap, delivery and ongoing performance of assigned end-to-end client and partner journeys.
- Translate product and proposition strategy into prioritised journey backlogs and practical delivery plans.
- Use customer insight, data and performance measures to shape journey design, priorities and continuous improvement.
- Bring together Product, Digital, Operations, Data, Service and third-party teams to drive change through to delivery.
- Lead decisions around journey design, delivery scope and prioritisation, while remaining aligned to overall product and proposition direction.
- Measure customer, operational and business outcomes, using insight to optimise journey performance and realise benefits.
- Champion client-focused innovation and improvement while ensuring delivery remains aligned with regulatory, risk, safeguarding and governance requirements.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

About You
You’ll bring significant experience within Customer Experience, Customer Journey Management, Service Design, Product Delivery or a closely related discipline, gained within a complex organisation.

What You Can Expect From Us
Our colleague experience is shaped around four things that matter to us:
Purpose – The experiences you improve will have a genuine human impact. You’ll help shape services that support people experiencing financial difficulty and make it easier for them to access the help they need.
Balance – We work in a flexible hybrid way, with this role typically spending around 80% of the time working from home. We still value bringing people together for collaboration, problem solving and connection, so some flexibility around office attendance will be important.
Growth – You’ll be joining a developing Client Experience Delivery function with the opportunity to influence some of our most important customer journeys, strategic priorities and future services.
Belonging – We want StepChange to be somewhere people can be themselves, contribute different perspectives and know that their experience and ideas are valued.

Belonging is central to who we are. We’re committed to building a workforce that reflects the communities we support and designing services that work for people with different needs, circumstances and experiences.
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and life experiences. We assess candidates based on the skills, experience and potential they can bring to the role and aim to make our recruitment process accessible and inclusive.
If you need a reasonable adjustment during the recruitment process so you can perform at your best, just let us know. We’re here to support you.
