Experience
- Proven experience leading complex, multi-workstream organisational change projects from strategic design through to operational delivery, including setting clear outcomes and tracking measurable benefits.
- Experience leading multi-disciplinary project teams (e.g. Business Analysts, Business Change Managers, SMEs, Workstream Leads) with evidence of creating high performing team environments.
- Experience delivering organisational change in multi-stakeholder environments, managing diverse interests and ensuring alignment across teams and functions.
- Strong relationship building and interpersonal skills, with experience influencing at operational and strategic levels, constructively challenging thinking, and facilitating decision making in complex environments.
- Proven ability to work effectively in ambiguous and fast-changing environments, making progress with incomplete information, shaping direction where clarity is lacking, and supporting others to stay confident and focused without rigid structure.
- A proactive and curious approach with evidence of diagnosing real business problems, engaging stakeholders in co-designing solutions, and applying a test and learn mindset to iterate and improve outcomes.
- Highly effective verbal and written communication skills, including producing clear documentation, briefings, business cases, and presenting confidently to senior stakeholders.
About You
You are a confident, clear, and calm leader who builds strong relationships quickly and collaborates naturally. Customer-centred and analytical, you adapt your approach as needed and have a track record of delivering complex change to a high standard. You support others to excel and keep teams focused on what truly matters. You thrive in ambiguity, ask the right questions, listen carefully to understand real issues, and shape practical solutions. You bring energy, momentum, and a "can do" attitude that inspires confidence. You are values-driven and grounded, standing alongside the business to support decision making and guide teams through uncertainty.
