Customer Experience Engagement Manager | Product Development and Design

At Qatar Airways, the passenger experience spans every moment of the journey — from the first point of contact before departure, through the lounge, the gate, the flight itself, and beyond. While Qatar Airways' Product Development and Design division is responsible for the design, development, and standards of all onboard product areas — including aircraft interiors, onboard equipment and amenities, inflight entertainment and connectivity, and food and beverage — the Customer Experience Design function takes a wider view. We champion the consistency, coherence, and quality of the entire passenger journey, ensuring that the world-class onboard experience PDD creates sits within a journey that feels equally considered, connected, and unmistakably Qatar Airways at every touchpoint.

Join our PDD team and lead the function that sets the standard for how Qatar Airways serves its passengers onboard, and champions the coherence of the entire journey around it.

About the Role

As CX Engagement Manager, you will lead the development and alignment of Qatar Airways' customer experience transformation initiatives across the organisation, reporting to the Senior Manager, Customer Journey Design and Standards. Your role is to ensure that the strategic intent of the CX team is translated into coherent, well-communicated programmes that land effectively across the functions and touchpoints that shape the passenger journey — from pre-departure through to post-flight.

You will own the development of key CX alignment frameworks including customer communication strategy, connected journey strategy, and personalisation strategy, working across the organisation to ensure these are developed collaboratively, communicated clearly, and adopted consistently. This is not a marketing or campaign management role. You are a CX transformation enabler — ensuring that the right conversations happen, the right frameworks are in place, and the right people are aligned around a shared vision of the end-to-end passenger experience. You will draw on the research and intelligence produced by the PDD Research and Strategy function to ensure transformation initiatives are grounded in evidence and aligned with the division's broader strategic direction.

As part of your role, your responsibilities will be inclusive of, but not limited to the following:

CX Transformation and Alignment

• Lead the development of key CX transformation frameworks on behalf of the Senior Manager, including customer communication strategy, connected journey strategy, personalisation strategy, and customer care alignment — ensuring these cover the full passenger journey from pre-departure to post-flight
• Manage the cross-functional engagement process that brings together owners of different journey touchpoints to align on CX transformation priorities, ensuring outcomes are documented, followed up, and tracked through to implementation
• Draw on research, insight, and strategic intelligence from the PDD Research and Strategy function to ensure transformation frameworks are evidence-based and aligned with the division's strategic direction
• Act as the primary relationship manager for CX alignment across functions including ground operations, lounge management, cabin crew, digital, and commercial teams, building the connections that enable the journey alignment mandate of the Senior Manager to be delivered at pace

Customer Communication and Journey Strategy

• Develop and maintain Qatar Airways' customer communication strategy from a CX perspective, ensuring that communications across the full passenger journey — from pre-departure through to post-flight — are consistent, coherent, and aligned with the brand and service standards
• Support the development of the connected journey strategy, working with digital, IFEC, and commercial teams to ensure the passenger experience across physical and digital touchpoints is coherent and complementary
• Contribute to the personalisation strategy, ensuring customer-facing teams and functions have a clear framework for how personalisation should be delivered consistently across the full journey

Engagement and Stakeholder Management

• Manage stakeholder engagement for CX initiatives, preparing briefing materials, facilitating workshops, and maintaining momentum across complex, multi-function programmes
• Support the Senior Manager in preparing executive communications, steering committee materials, and cross-functional alignment documentation
• Monitor the progress of CX transformation initiatives, tracking adoption, identifying barriers, and escalating risks or issues to the Senior Manager in a structured and timely manner
