We are seeking an experienced a Customer Journey Insights Lead to deliver our new approach to service improvement at Deloitte.

- Design and run structured insight activity including focus groups, interviews, workshops, surveys, sentiment capture, user testing, mystery shopping and observational research where appropriate.
- Combine qualitative insight with quantitative signals such as customer effort, satisfaction, contact demand, operational performance and service management data to build robust, evidence-led conclusions.
- Develop and apply repeatable journey assessment and prioritisation criteria, considering customer impact, effort reduction, business value, feasibility, data readiness, service risk and AI or automation potential.
- Translate journey insights into clear improvement opportunities, transformation hypotheses and prioritised backlogs that support CSI, service redesign, Lean, Six Sigma, AI and automation activity.
- Create compelling executive-ready narratives, journey maps and visualisations that bring the customer and user experience to life and support leadership decision-making.
- Work closely with service owners, operational teams, technology teams and internal customer groups to validate findings, shape recommendations and support implementation of cross-functional improvements.
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.
