About the Role

This role leads the design, governance, and scaling of Momentum’s journey-led operating model, aligning cross-functional teams, maintaining the enterprise journey framework, and ensuring transformation efforts deliver measurable business and customer outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • Establish clear roles, accountabilities, and ways of working across Journey Leaders, Product, Technology, and Operations.
  • Drive adoption and consistency across all journeys.
  • Define and institutionalize the core principles of the journey operating model — customer at the centre, omni-channel by design, build-once deploy-many, value-led prioritization, and continuous optimization.
  • Ensure these principles are embedded in all prioritization, design, and delivery decisions across the enterprise.
  • Enable cross-journey prioritization and sequencing of initiatives based on enterprise value.
  • Facilitate trade-off decisions across products, channels, and platforms.
  • Provide a unified view of priorities across the journey portfolio, that feeds into enterprise-wide portfolio view, capacity, demand, execution and risk view owned by PMO.
  • Design governance forums including the Journey Council.
  • Enable rapid, informed decision-making and clear escalation pathways.
  • Ensure alignment across enterprise priorities and strategic initiatives.
  • Define, maintain, and continuously evolve a robust, live, and current library of customer journey definitions.
  • Ensure journey definitions reflect the true end-to-end customer experience across all products, channels, and touchpoints.
  • Ensure journey definitions are regularly reviewed and updated as the business evolves.
  • Provide strategic direction, coaching, and leadership to Journey Leaders.
  • Ensure Journey Leaders are driving cross-functional alignment, prioritization, and execution with clarity and impact.
  • Hold collective accountability for journey portfolio performance and delivery quality.
  • Ensure the delivery of consistent, seamless experiences across Digital, Retail, and Contact Centre.
  • Drive alignment between channel and platform teams.
  • Champion modular, reusable capabilities and a build-once, deploy-many approach across the enterprise.

  • Proven track record of leading and developing senior leaders and high-performing teams in a cross-functional environment

  • Experience operating at CLT or equivalent level — influencing enterprise strategy, investment decisions, and organizational design
  • Background in financial services, consumer lending, or a similarly regulated and customer-intensive industry
  • Experience standing up or leading a Journey Management Office, CX Centre of Excellence, or equivalent enterprise function
  • Familiarity with SAFe or equivalent scaled agile frameworks at a portfolio or program level
  • Experience owning enterprise-level CX metrics - NPS, customer effort score, complaints - and driving systemic, sustained improvement
