About the role

As a Senior Customer Solutions Design Manager (Contact Centre Specialist), you will lead consultancy-led discovery and translate customer outcomes into deliverable contact centre solutions.
 
You will shape end-to-end designs across CCaaS/on-prem contact centre, WFM/WEM, quality/recording/analytics, and integration into customer platforms—balancing experience, operational performance, security and cost.
 
Working with sales, delivery, operations and partners, you will provide design authority, strong governance and clear documentation to ensure successful delivery, adoption and measurable benefits.

What you’ll be doing

• Lead discovery and design workshops to define customer journeys, channel strategies, volumes, locations, operating models, and success measures (e.g. NPS, SLA, retention, revenue).
• Own end‑to‑end solution design for contact centre capabilities (CCaaS and on‑prem), including routing/IVR, digital channels, knowledge, reporting, and analytics.
• Design and assure WFM/WEM approaches (forecasting, scheduling, intraday management, quality, recording, and speech analytics) to drive adoption and measurable operational outcomes.
• Define integration patterns and data flows (e.g. CRM/ITSM, identity, reporting/BI) and ensure designs meet non‑functional requirements such as security, resilience, performance, and compliance.
• Produce high‑quality design artefacts and governance outputs, including options, assumptions, risks, HLD inputs, acceptance criteria, transition plans, and service wrap.
• Act as design authority throughout delivery, supporting change control, issue resolution, testing, cutover planning, and operational readiness.
• Partner with commercial and bid teams to shape costed solutions, run demonstrations, and support proposals and customer presentations.
• Build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships, including C‑suite sponsors, to drive decisions, manage escalations, and lead service recovery where required.
• Coach and mentor colleagues, developing reusable assets, standards, and ways of working to improve the quality and speed of solution design.
• Drive continuous improvement and benefits tracking post‑implementation to maximise value realisation and customer advocacy.

• Senior stakeholder management and communication: able to influence executive sponsors and align multi-disciplinary teams to outcomes.

• People leadership: building inclusive, high-performing teams; coaching, mentoring and developing capability across matrix environments.

Desirable Skills / Experience

• WFM/WEM leadership: forecasting, scheduling and intraday management; plus quality, recording and speech analytics to drive coaching and performance.
