What Is the Opportunity?
Travelers' Experience Design (XD) team creates solutions to ensure best-in-class experiences for our customers, agents, employees, and partners. This Lead Experience Designer will provide design expertise and leadership within the Management Liability Value Stream, contributing to experience vision and strategy while collaborating with product, engineering, data, and business stakeholders to deliver unified, inclusive, and valuable experiences for customers, agents, policyholders, and employees.
