Overview of the Role
As a Design & UX executive supporting our U.S. Personal Banking business line, you’ll lead a large team that design industry and market leading client solutions that are poised to exceed client expectations and push Citi as the brand leader. The role requires a hands-on, experienced, client obsessed and results oriented leader to drive strategic direction and execution of design across the business. You are adept in market trends, design best practices, and competitor insights, and how these factors impact our customers and our business results. You are passionate about building solutions that drive client loyalty, engagement and are relentless on simplification. You operate with the highest standards of integrity and have business strategic and financial acumen to understand the impact of decisions on economics. You know how to apply design thinking and agile product design and combine the art and science of design to create world class experiences, validating solutions through research and testing.

This senior leader will be responsible for defining and driving our long-term design vision and strategy, defining the client and colleague experiences across the spectrum of USPB platforms and products.
