The Role

As an Senior Lead, Experience Strategist in Kyndryl Vital, you are a visible CX authority who shapes strategy, influences executive decision-making, and drives measurable impact. You lead experience-led growth by creating future-state prototypes, crafting executive-level narratives/POVs, and enabling delivery teams with insights and direction to achieve desired outcomes.

You operate comfortably with senior stakeholders, command the room in client and internal forums, and translate complex market dynamics and human-centered insights into clear points of view, scalable solution frameworks, and compelling stories that accelerate buying decisions. You are both a strategic driver and a thought leader, setting direction while mentoring others to raise the bar across the team. This role requires presence, perspective, and precision.

This role sits at the intersection of strategy, experience, business outcomes, and storytelling, with a mandate to influence how Kyndryl shows up at the client, particularly shaping roadmaps that include AI-enabled capabilities.
