Mō te tūranga - About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced designer who is passionate about solving problems, leading change, and creating services that make a real difference.

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a high-impact capability that supports the Pacific's overall risk management, governance, and "well-managed" outcomes.

Role Type:  Permanent, full time

Role Location: Auckland/Wellington

Ka aha tō rā e kite ai? - What will your day look like?

As a Senior Service Designer, you will:

Partner with customers, stakeholders and delivery teams to uncover needs, pain points and opportunities through research, workshops and discovery activities.
Map customer journeys and service experiences to identify improvement opportunities and drive better outcomes.
Facilitate collaborative design sessions, bringing together diverse perspectives to solve complex problems.
Translate insights into service concepts, blueprints and recommendations that balance customer, business and operational needs.
Champion human-centred design practices while influencing stakeholders and supporting delivery teams to bring great experiences to life.

Ōu Pūkenga? - What will you bring?

To be successful in this role, ideally, you’ll bring:

Proven experience in Service Design and/or Customer Journey Design, with the ability to design and improve experiences across complex ecosystems.
Strong customer research and insight capabilities, including translating customer needs, behaviours and pain points into actionable design outcomes.
Experience leading or contributing to change and transformation initiatives, with a track record of turning insights into tangible improvements, not just measuring customer feedback through VOC programs.
Excellent stakeholder management and facilitation skills, with the confidence to influence and collaborate across a wide range of teams and senior leaders.
Experience working within large, complex organisations, navigating multiple priorities, dependencies and stakeholder groups to achieve outcomes.
Experience in banking, financial services or other regulated industries is advantageous, but not essential. We welcome candidates who bring strong service design expertise from a variety of sectors.

You’re not expected to have 100% of these skills. At ANZ a growth mindset is at the heart of our culture, so if you have most of these things in your toolbox, we’d love to hear from you.
