Job description

Sitting within the central Design Delivery Practice (DDP), you'll help coordinate projects across teams. The projects themselves can vary; from recruiting, onboarding and developing our people, to ensuring consistency in the way design teams measure design debt, to championing our customer journey management framework. You'll help make sure everyone is clear across our teams to embed to support operational delivery and community engagement. You'll also be the eyes and ears of DDP as you engage with and support our design teams. Success in your role will look like hours of designer time saved or adoption/uptake of DDP processes or frameworks.

What will I be doing?

• Maintaining and visualising roadmaps and backlogs across DDP initiatives.
• Coordinating community contributions, ensuring alignment and visibility.
• Helping to connect teams, surface blockers, and enable knowledge flow.
• Supporting onboarding and engagement activities for new joiners and community members.
• Contributing to the development and maintenance of playbooks, templates, and tooling.

Why Lloyds Banking Group? From building a truly sustainable business to creating a place where people love to work, we need colleagues who are up for the challenge of our bold ambitions. Who are excited to push boundaries and make change happen. Together, we can grow with purpose.

Qualifications

• Project management experience with strong organisational and coordination skills.
• Familiarity with agile delivery and design ways of working.
• Strong ability with tools such as Jira, Figma, Excel, and SharePoint.
• Excellent written and verbal communication.
• Ability to work across multiple teams and manage competing priorities.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and able to bring structure to complex environments.

Desirable Experience

• Exposure to design operations or design tooling.
• Experience in financial services or regulated environments.
• Awareness of inclusion and accessibility principles.

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms. We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture. We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative. And it's why we especially welcome applications from underrepresented groups. We're disability confident. So if you'd like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

Benefits

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%.
• An annual performance related bonus.
• Share schemes including free shares.
• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping.
• 30 days' holiday, with bank holidays on top.
• A range of wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies.
