Desirable Experience Experience within a high-growth consumer products, retail or similarly fast-paced commercial environment. Exposure to behavioural science, human-centred design, product thinking or experience design. Practical experience using AI tools to enable the workforce or redesign ways of working. Previous contract or interim experience, with a proven ability to deliver at pace and hand over projects effectively.
