We are proud of:

The Role:

You’ll work alongside a multidisciplinary team of designers, researchers, strategists, and technologists, creating services for some of the world’s most influential organisations.

Our capability is end-to-end. We move from framing complex challenges through to delivering live services, always balancing user needs, business impact, and operational reality.

We operate across sectors, including public services, financial services, and consumer brands. Each brings different constraints, expectations, and opportunities; and we adapt accordingly.

Service design at Valtech connects the dots. We align teams, shape systems, and design services that work across channels, touchpoints, and organisational boundaries.

Role Responsibilities:

• You’re a hands-on service designer who thrives in complex, real-world environments. You’re comfortable working directly with clients, often on-site; embedding into teams, facilitating conversations, and helping organisations move forward with clarity and confidence.

• You lead from the front, but you’re just as comfortable contributing as an individual within a cross-disciplinary team. You work shoulder-to-shoulder with product designers, product managers, engineers, data specialists, and business strategists, bringing your perspective while valuing theirs.

• You bring a strong foundation in service design, but you’re not rigid in how you apply it. You flex across CX, UX, product, and strategy, using the right tools and approaches for the context. Whether shaping a service vision, mapping a complex ecosystem, or defining an operating model, you focus on what will create momentum and impact.

• You’re confident operating across sectors. You understand how to adapt your approach when working with government, financial services, insurance, or consumer brands. Balancing structured, principle-led thinking with commercial pragmatism.
