Develop tailored training for key teams—Housing Officers, Repairs, Contact Centre, Finance, IT, and others—ensuring relevance to their day-to-day challenges and responsibilities. - Bring Customer Journeys to Life
Embed storytelling, lived experience, and service design principles to deepen understanding of customer needs and behaviours, fostering empathy and service excellence. - Deliver Immersive and Flexible Learning Experiences

Inclusive Service Design:
- Work closely with our digital and transformation teams to ensure inclusive service design across all customer-facing and internal services, ensuring services are accessible, trauma-informed, and responsive to diverse customer needs. Use insight and feedback to co-design improvements that remove friction and enhance experience.
What you need to be successful:
- Proven experience in customer experience, service design, or learning & development—ideally within housing, public services, or a regulated sector.
- Strong facilitation and communication skills, with the ability to engage diverse audiences.
- A deep understanding of trauma-informed, inclusive, and person-centred approaches.
