- Client experience is the sum of all engagements a client has with you during the client lifecycle. Clients don’t see departments; they see one company, one brand. If one fails to deliver, then the entirety of the experience is dramatically affected. CX is an established but rapidly growing field of expertise; having dedicated CX professionals has been proven to increase customer loyalty, commercial performance, and employee engagement. CX is thus crucial to organisational strategy and is a widely recognised market differentiator by business leaders. Personalisation, intelligent automation, and the ability to connect customer journeys powered by intelligence from analytics, will do most to reshape CX capabilities in the next five years.**Job Summary**:**Responsibilities**:
