Job summary
Across government, service design plays a critical role in ensuring that digital services are user-centred, accessible and effective. As organisations adopt enterprise platforms such as Salesforce, there is an increasing need to design end-to-end services that are not only technically robust but also intuitive, inclusive and aligned with user needs. Ofgem plays a vital role in the UK’s energy system, protecting consumers and enabling a more secure, fair and sustainable energy future, and well-designed digital services are essential to delivering this mission.
Ofgem is on an ambitious transformation journey. Within the Digital, Data and Security Services (DDSS) directorate, we are delivering a range of digital, data and AI initiatives, including the expansion of Salesforce-based services. As part of this, we are strengthening our service design capability to ensure that solutions are coherent, scalable and deliver consistent user experiences across the organisation.
As a Senior Service Designer (Salesforce), you will lead the design of end-to-end Salesforce-enabled services. You will work across multidisciplinary teams to shape service journeys, workflows and interactions, ensuring they meet user needs while aligning with technical constraints and organisational priorities. You will act as a bridge between business stakeholders and technical teams, ensuring that design intent is clear, feasible and effectively delivered.
This is a senior role requiring strong experience in service design, user-centred design approaches and the ability to influence across complex delivery environments.
