You will work closely with the VP of IT as the primary change resource across a portfolio of system and process implementations, leading change from initial impact assessment through go-live and adoption. This role calls for a change practitioner who brings structured methodology and a willingness to get into the work. The right person is as comfortable leading a stakeholder session as writing a training guide or building a readiness checklist. What success looks like: Workstream teams are change-ready at each milestone, with adoption risks surfaced and addressed before go-live. * Employees understand how changes affect their roles and have the training and process guidance to move forward with confidence. * Process documentation is accurate, maintained, and handed off to business owners in a form they can actually use. * By contract end, workstream leads and managers are equipped to sustain adoption on their own. What You'll Do * Lead change management for the Digital Transformation workstream, supporting the full lifecycle of concurrent system and process implementations. * Partner closely with the VP of IT, workstream leads, and key stakeholders to assess change impacts by role, audience, and business function, then translate those impacts into clear, actionable change plans. * Manage workstream communications across all impacted audiences, including maintaining a coordinated communications calendar, aligning with the broader program plan, and adjusting messaging and timing as the program evolves. * Lead enablement and training strategy across sub-projects by partnering with subject matter experts and the learning experience team to design role-specific materials, identify readiness gaps, and prepare teams for go-live. * Support process documentation and future-state workflow design with workstream leads and SMEs to ensure process changes are accurately captured, clearly communicated, and accessible to impacted teams. * Manage change readiness for each sub-project launch, including stakeholder alignment, audience validation, adoption tracking, and escalation of unresolved gaps to program leadership. * Build and support a change champion network across impacted teams, equipping internal advocates with the tools, context, and messaging needed to reinforce new behaviors and surface issues back to the program team. * Support post-launch adoption through reinforcement activities, hyper-care, and structured handoff to business-as-usual once documentation, training, and sustainment plans are in place. * Coach workstream leads and managers on practical change management practices, proactively flag adoption risks, and leave behind scalable capability the organization can continue using after the contract ends. ## Related Videos - [Coffee with Developers - Adam Wiggins](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/919-coffee-with-developers-adam-wiggins) - [Creating Industry ready solutions with LLM Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/899-creating-industry-ready-solutions-with-llm-models) - [Edit Your Future: Queerverse Radical AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/909-edit-your-future-queerverse-radical-ai) - [The Intent Engineer: Closing the Gap Between Business & Engineering - Manuel Klein](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1855-the-intent-engineer-closing-the-gap-between-business-engineering-manuel-klein) - [Angstfreude - AI and Corporate Culture - The Thrill and the Threat](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100354-angstfreude-ai-and-corporate-culture-the-thrill-and-the-threat) - [The AI-Ready Stack: Rethinking the Engineering Org of the Future](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1706-the-ai-ready-stack-rethinking-the-engineering-org-of-the-future) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Prompt Engineering is a Job of the Past](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/342-prompt-engineering-is-a-job-of-the-past) - [From developer to manager – what does it take to become an engineering manager?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/42-from-developer-to-manager-what-does-it-take-to-become-an-engineering-manager) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [What Are Large Language Models?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/304-what-are-large-language-models) - [Should Tech Managers Be Developers First?
