Ashlee Riordan
I lead experience strategy across our transport and public‑infrastructure projects, drawing on nearly two decades working in passenger experience, human‑centred service design, and organisational transformation.
My background in neuroscience shapes how I understand decision‑making and attention, and my master’s studies in organisational capability and innovation guide how I help teams move through change. I focus on how people navigate complex systems and turn those insights into strategies that lift experience, strengthen operations, and support commercial outcomes.
My strength sits in turning strategy into a clear path forward. I map how services work end‑to‑end, define the roles and decisions that matter, and build the operational foundations needed for teams to deliver with certainty.
I have worked on projects such as:
Passenger experience strategy lead for Transdev–John Holland's bid for the Melbourne Trams franchise bid, covering accessibility, disruption journeys, and major‑event travel.
Service strategy lead for Serco's national defence estate bid, where I shaped the integrated service experience and operating model across a large and complex defence‑estate environment.
System‑wide voice‑of‑customer transformation for the South Australia Department of Infrastructure and Transport. I designed and delivered the enterprise VOC operating model supporting real‑time insight and continuous improvement.
