Responsibilities
As a service designer, you will apply service design and design research methods to help agencies understand the end-to-end user experience across systems, touchpoints, and stakeholders.

- Partner with the GTO Design Practice to refine and scale design-led frameworks for discovery, problem definition, and co‑design
- Represent the user perspective in technical and product discussions to ensure solutions are meaningful and implementable
- Mentor designers and peers to grow design capability and embed upstream thinking across teams
