Edward Jones' Journey Design & Innovation Portfolio is pioneering something new in financial services: the first experience division to own and direct firm-wide client journeys. As a Sr. Design Team Lead, you're not just shipping designs-you're envisioning the future. You design 5 years ahead, creating compelling future-state visions that show what's possible, backed by evidence, and presented in ways that inspire the entire organization to act. You're establishing how a partnership-based financial firm thinks about and creates human-centered experiences. You're the bridge between executive vision and execution excellence, the quality bar for your team, and the advocate who ensures design decisions connect to measurable business outcomes. You have craft excellence and see AI as a craft multiplier. You're fluent in business metrics that matter to Edward Jones: client satisfaction scores (OSAT), Net Promoter Score (NPS), conversion rates, time-to-onboard, assets under care growth, and operational efficiency. You lead with influence.

Quality Assurance & Standards:
Own deliverable quality by leading design reviews, validating problem statements through research and iteration, promoting data-driven, human-centered design, and ensuring consistent application of service design principles.
Team Leadership & Development:
Lead a high-performing multidisciplinary team by setting clear roles and direction, fostering psychological safety, coaching and upskilling, inspiring ownership, providing actionable feedback, and driving rapid experimentation, learning, and confident delivery.
Cross-
Functional Collaboration:

People leadership experience?(direct or indirect) leading designers to fluent collaboration
