I've filled several roles at Ahold Delhaize ranging from Product Design & Research to Product Owner and Facilitator. During these projects I had the freedom to focus on adding value wherever I saw an opportunity.

tl;dr

  • Leading Product Design & Research for B2B tool from discovery all the way through to Go-Live and continuous improvement.
  • Setup a pragmatic design library that could be used for now and become the foundation for the design system that is currently used.
  • Stakeholder management in a complex environment for different labels and external parties. I am the glue that keeps everyone connected.
  • Setup a standardised way of working for all parties involved (IT, Business and Design) and acted as PO for the initial release of the tool.
  • Facilitated multiple sessions to align on objectives and next steps, i.e. Design Sprint, Story Mapping and Value Propositions.
  • Leading Product Design & Research for a backoffice tool with minimal budget.
  • Setup of standardised flows and patterns for all Enterprise UX @ Albert Heijn (in progress).
  • Provided temporary support as an objective outsider during discussions about customer journey management and design capacity.

Lessons learned

  • Transparant, honest and timely communication goes a long way.
  • An objective and curious team member is worth their weight in gold.
  • Empathy for all! Not just the end-user.
