The challenge

Make pensions understandable

The experience needed to help customers understand important pension information while meeting legal and regulatory obligations.

My role

Leading UX, research and agency collaboration

I led the UX design and research, managed and collaborated with an external agency, and worked across internal teams to balance customer needs with business and regulatory requirements.

Outcome

A catalyst for a new way of working

The project’s success earned the confidence of senior leadership, who empowered me to implement a full discovery-to-testing cycle within a new agile way of working across projects. This wider organisational change is the most important outcome of my involvement. I have omitted previously cited onboarding percentages because I cannot substantiate them here.
