Service designer apprenticeship

Design and plan out services to meet the needs of the user. 

Get ready to walk the tightrope! Service designers balance the needs of the customers and the business or organisation they work for. Service designers and their skills are in growing demand, so you could work anywhere in the world, in sectors like the health sector, finance sector, business and professional services, retail sector, technology sector, government, public sector, and the charity sector. During a service designer apprenticeship you’ll learn more about user-centred service design, and how to come up with, test out, and evaluate the effectiveness of new ideas for services. You might have to work with lots of different teams, so you’ll need good communication skills. Plus, good service designers are able to think critically, be flexible, and produce evidence for making design decisions.
