Job description

We’re looking for a hands-on Change Management Consultant to lead organizational change for a high-visibility employee support transformation centered on AI-powered service delivery. This role will shape the change strategy from the ground up and personally drive communications, training, stakeholder engagement, and adoption across a large, multi-site workforce. Responsibilities

  • Develop and execute the full change management strategy and plan for a complex enterprise program using a structured methodology such as ADKAR.
  • Assess stakeholder impacts across process, technology, roles, and audiences to identify change risks and areas of resistance early.
  • Create and manage end-to-end communications, including messaging strategy, leadership materials, campaign content, and reinforcement communications.
  • Design and build enablement materials, such as awareness content, role-based quick guides, and adoption nudges for employees and support agents.
  • Support adoption of AI-driven capabilities by helping users build trust in “search and answer” functionality before broader task automation is introduced.
  • Build and activate a change champion network across headquarters, stores, distribution centers, and call centers to extend change efforts to hard-to-reach audiences.
  • Establish readiness activities, launch communications, and hypercare reinforcement to help sustain adoption after go-live.
  • Track progress, provide status updates, and contribute to program governance in partnership with technical and product leadership.
  • Sequence communications and change activities carefully across phased releases to avoid audience fatigue and support a smooth rollout.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of change management experience, including at least 3 years supporting enterprise HR, IT service, or employee experience technology initiatives.
  • Proven success driving adoption of a new AI, self-service, or conversational tool within a large, distributed workforce.
  • Experience reaching deskless and non-desk employee groups with practical, low-friction adoption approaches.
  • Ability to own change strategy independently and execute communications and enablement without relying on separate teams.
  • Strong working knowledge of enterprise service platforms such as ServiceNow, Moveworks, Aisera, or similar solutions.
  • Experience applying ADKAR or another structured change framework in a compressed delivery timeline.
  • Excellent executive communication skills and the ability to draft clear, polished content for leadership audiences.
  • Comfort managing multiple workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholder expectations in a fast-paced environment.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Human Resources, Communications, Information Technology, or a related field.

Preferred Skills

  • Hands-on experience supporting Moveworks or a similar AI-enabled employee support platform.
  • Change management certification such as Prosci ADKAR or ACMP.
  • Background in HR service delivery, HR operations, or employee support processes.
  • Experience in retail, consumer goods, or other large multi-brand organizations with distributed teams.
  • Familiarity with Salesforce Marketing Cloud and SharePoint for communications and training distribution.
  • Experience localizing content for multilingual or global audiences.
  • Experience partnering with system integrators or vendor teams to review and align deliverables.
  • A collaborative, adaptable approach with a strong focus on trust-building, adoption, and user experience.
