What you'll do
Is organising creativity your thing?

Our DPMs are advocates for the design team, helping to scope, prioritise and manage our work, and supporting the day-to-day running and scaling of the team. They facilitate collaboration between Design, Product and Technology to ensure that stakeholders and designers are aligned, have visibility into the roadmap and are ready to tackle new and existing projects alike. The DPMs enable designers to spend more time designing, leading to better experiences for our customers, partners, and our people.

3. Keep the project pipeline up to date, and in close collaboration with Design leadership, identify overlaps across projects and the best distribution of work.
4. Support continuous improvement of projects and processes, ensuring insights are captured, shared, and integrated.
What you'll bring

2. Skilled at getting people to collaborate and seeing how teams can improve ways of working to make them more effective.
3. Experience partnering with Design, Product Management and Technology.
