We are committed to hiring the best, most talented people in our industry; and we support them through professional growth, flexibility, and personalized benefits to manage life in and outside of work. Whether you’ve got deep experience in commercial real estate, skilled trades, and technology, or you’re looking to apply your relevant experience to a new industry, we empower you to shape a brighter way forward so you can thrive professionally and personally.

      Client Experience Director, Americas

      Are you an experienced client experience (CX) practitioner who thrives on navigating complexity and is skilled at building and maintaining relationships with diverse stakeholders?

      We’re looking for someone who has a passion for improving client satisfaction, retention and loyalty to join our global CX team. You’ll be responsible for driving our CX program across all lines of business in the Americas region, making sure we listen to and understand our clients, engage and activate our local employees, and turn insights into action. This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys finding creative solutions to new challenges, pushing boundaries to deliver meaningful outcomes, and having a meaningful impact on shaping the client experience.

      What the job involves

      Capturing Client Feedback
      Delivering a world-class experience begins with listening to our clients. As CX Director, you will program manage JLL’s global voice of the client program spanning multiple listening points. You will work closely with local teams across the Americas to drive engagement and participation in every market to achieve response rate targets and ensure timely and effective response to client feedback. This will include advising on survey sampling and segmentation and overseeing the hierarchy of engagement with top clients. You will coordinate our response to local market nuances such as language or regulatory requirements and contribute to ongoing improvement of the global program over time, based on local user experience.

      Activating Employees
      Our people are the foundation of our clients’ experience with JLL. As CX Director, you will be responsible for activating our employees to deliver improved experiences every day. You will provide coaching and training for client-facing teams to help them ‘lean in’ to client feedback, and to take action on what they learn. In particular, you will help them understand how to approach issue resolution and turn negative feedback into positive experiences. You’ll also coach business leaders on how they can support and participate in client follow up activity. And you will advise on setting appropriate, globally aligned performance objectives for the business and support in tracking and reporting on those metrics to ensure people are accountable.

      Turning Insights into Action
      Our clients’ feedback informs the continued development of products and services at JLL and it can help evaluate how the brand is perceived in the market . You will help to interpret insights within the local context to identify and prioritize opportunities to improve our clients’ overall experience. You will support internal function, service line and product teams to implement improvements and/or design new solutions in response to client needs. You will define requirements for further research to dig deeper into key issues and understand root causes to inform solutions. You will also work with client leads to ensure insights are used to inform strategies for top clients, and coordinate/undertake 1-1 relationship reviews with key decision makers to support these strategies.

      Leadership Engagement
      Leadership buy-in and sponsorship is critical to the success of the overall CX program. You will champion opportunities to consistently improve the client experience and make sure this topic is at the top of the leadership agenda. You will ensure timely sharing of client feedback insights, preparing and presenting findings to key leadership groups to ensure insights are leveraged for strategic discussions, and at key decision points as part of relevant programs, processes, policies, and planning. You will cascade and reinforce global messaging to local teams, looking for opportunities to communicate lessons learned, actions taken, solutions implemented, and results achieved for both clients and employees.
