Help guide organisational decision-making by communicating research best practice.

Support the Senior User Researcher to establish user research as a function at the GLA. Set standards and behavioural expectations for user researchers and embed user research as a function into the delivery of all digital and data services and products. Build up and maintain a user research community, as well as knowledge base.

Act as an advocate for user-centred design and development across the GLA. Advocate for user research at all levels in the organisation, helping to break down the barriers to opening up and listening.
