Make incremental improvements based on customer behaviour, insight and performance data.
Collaborate with product, brand, design, and paid media teams to improve landing pages and product journeys from entry to conversion.
Support the handoff between digital touchpoints (e.g., landing page > product detail > online banking/app).
Data & Analytics:
Analyse customer behaviour and performance using tools like Adobe Analytics, Contentsquare, Similarweb and Decibel.
Track performance of digital content and journeys using key KPIs.
Make data-led recommendations for continuous improvement and conversion rate optimisation.
Test and validate ideas using A/B testing and personalisation tools such as Adobe Target.

Partner with the Content Management team to ensure website content is relevant, optimised, and aligned with customer needs.
Understand levers within the website ecosystem – SEO, navigation, search, testing, and UX.
Influence journey design and self-serve functionality to reduce friction and unnecessary contact.
Stakeholder Engagement & Delivery:
Present insights, reports, and recommendations to stakeholders in a clear and compelling way.
Support end-to-end project delivery and lead initiatives where needed.
Communicate effectively across cross-functional teams, building positive working relationships.

Confident with key website metrics, KPIs, and performance optimisation tactics.
Experience with Adobe Analytics, AEM, Similarweb, Adobe Target, Contentsquare, and Decibel (or similar tools).
Deep understanding of website ecosystems including SEO, journey mapping, A/B testing, and UX optimisation.
Analytical mindset – able to turn insights into simple, actionable strategies.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills; confident presenting to varied audiences.

At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home.

Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager.
