  • Stay genuinely curious and connected to the broader design and technology landscape, bringing outside perspectives in and helping the team make sense of rapid change
  • Own design outcomes across a portfolio of Fortune 500 accounts, from executive relationships and QBRs to the quality of what ships
  • Serve as a trusted design authority at the C-suite level, influencing client strategy and product direction, not just delivery
  • Partner with strategic consultants and business development teams to shape how design is positioned and sold in new and existing engagements
  • Drive alignment in complex, high-stakes situations, bringing teams back on track and bringing clients along with clarity and confidence
  • Team Building & Culture
  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of over 100 designers, content designers, creative services consultants, and design leaders, creating the conditions for exceptional work and meaningful careers
  • Recruit actively and elevate TELUS Digital's presence in the design community through thought leadership, networking, and external visibility
  • Build a studio culture that balances craft ambition with practical delivery, where feedback is honest, standards are high, and people want to do their best work
