О компании и продукте

• As a UX / Product Research & Strategy Lead you'll drive the strategic direction of the experience, owning the research programme that underpins product vision and direction. Building on all the skills of a Senior UX Researcher, your focus extends beyond individual research studies to shaping the north star for the experience and ensuring that research and strategy are deeply embedded in how product decisions are made. You'll lead the full range of research needed to understand users, markets, and the competitive landscape, and will collaborate directly with senior stakeholders to translate those insights into a clear, compelling experience strategy.
• Great employee experiences don't happen by accident — they're designed. At Citi, we believe that the tools people use every day at work should be just as intuitive, seamless, and delightful as the best consumer apps out there.
• Our UX team is on a mission to transform our Human Resources apps and systems — from onboarding and benefits to performance and beyond — turning friction into flow and complexity into clarity.
• If you're passionate about putting people first, obsessed with crafting digital experiences that genuinely make life easier, and excited by the idea that great design can elevate the everyday moments of someone's working world, then this is the role for you.
