  • Moderate live sessions with users and RBC people covering high-complexity or sensitive topics
  • Communicate core themes and implications of your research activities to the design team and other stakeholders
  • Design and facilitate ideation sessions and collaborative work activities

What You WIll Bring

  • Strong presentation and storytelling skills
  • Experience collaborating effectively with designers and members of other functional teams (Product, Tech, Business, Marketing, etc.)
  • Experience managing and/or mentoring other designers and researchers
  • Experience conducting research in a B2B setting (strongly preferred but not required)
  • Experience working in highly-regulated industries (financial institutions, healthcare/pharma, etc.) and/or the loyalty space
  • Experience with our current tool set: Alida, Maze, Fable, Figma, Mural
  • Experience in community management
  • Technical understanding of design research theory / design research tools
  • Working knowledge of a variety of design research methodologies
  • Experience working in cross-functional teams
