More about our mission and what we offer .

We’re on the lookout for a Staff Researcher to join our Support Experience team in London! You'll be part of Wise’s global mission to build an open, fair and human financial system. Because people without borders need money without borders.
Your mission:
As a Staff Researcher, you’ll shape how we understand and improve the end-to-end support experience. You’ll work across methods to uncover what customers need when resolving problems, what builds or loses their trust, and where self-service, AI and human support should each play a role.
Your work will span the whole support journey, including the Help Centre, Wise Assistant, human support and the underlying products and processes that determine whether customers’ problems are resolved. You’ll help teams understand what makes support interactions feel helpful, how experiences should work when AI cannot meet a customer’s needs, and what a successful handover to human support looks like.
This is a Staff-level individual contributor role for someone who sets research direction rather than waits for a brief. You’ll define the questions worth answering, choose the right methods and turn evidence into product and service strategy that influences decisions beyond your immediate team.
You’ll also join a community of more than 20 researchers in London. Although our researchers are embedded across different teams and squads, they regularly come together to learn from and support one another.

Here’s how you’ll make an impact:

You’ll operate as a peer to Design, Product, Engineering, Data Science and Operations, bringing rigour, clarity and sound judgement to complex decisions. You’ll resolve ambiguity, align teams around shared evidence and think systemically about how support experiences connect across channels, products and operational processes.

About you:

Not ticking every box? That's okay. If this role excites you and you're keen to grow into it, we'd still love to hear from you! Research shows that some people hesitate to apply unless they meet every single requirement, and we don't want to miss out on great candidates because of it.

As a heads up, this role probably isn't for you if:

For everyone, everywhere. We're people building money without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive.
We're proud to have a truly international team, and we celebrate our differences.

Inclusive teams help us live our values and make sure every Wiser feels respected, empowered to contribute towards our mission and able to progress in their careers.
