The Job: Head of Journey Centre Enablement

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.

What You’ll Do

Journey Operating Model & North Star

• Define & Scale the Journey-Based Operating Model: Define, evolve, and embed the enterprise journey-based operating model. Establish clear roles, accountabilities, and ways of working across Journey Leaders, Product, Technology, and Operations. Drive adoption and consistency across all journeys.
• Set and Propagate the Journey North Star: 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.

Governance, Prioritization & Decision Frameworks

• Drive Enterprise Prioritization & Trade-Offs: 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.
• Establish Governance & Decision Frameworks: Design governance forums including the Journey Council. Enable rapid, informed decision-making and clear escalation pathways. Ensure alignment across enterprise priorities and strategic initiatives.

Journey Library & Enterprise Standards

• Own the Journey Library: Define, maintain, and continuously evolve a robust, live, and current library of customer journey definitions — ensuring they reflect the true end-to-end customer experience across all products, channels, and touchpoints, and are regularly reviewed and updated as the business evolves.

Leadership, Enablement & Capability Building

• Enable Journey Leaders: 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.

Execution, Omni-Channel Experience & Business Outcomes

• Enable Omni-Channel & Platform Thinking: 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.

What You’ll Bring to the Table

• 15+ years in transformation, strategy, customer experience, or enterprise operating model leadership — with at least 5 years at Senior Director level or equivalent
• Demonstrated experience designing, leading, or scaling a Centre of Excellence, operating model function, or enterprise capability in a large, complex organization
• Proven track record of leading and developing senior leaders and high-performing teams in a cross-functional environment
• Deep expertise in customer journey design and management — including defining and maintaining enterprise-level journey frameworks that drive measurable outcomes
• 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

Nice to Have:

• 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
• Background in subprime, near-prime, or financially underserved customer segments - understanding of vulnerability, hardship, and responsible lending obligations
• Track record of building organizational capability through toolkits, playbooks, communities of practice, or formal learning programs

Education + Experience
