Senior Change Management Specialist

The Senior Change Management Specialist serves as the execution and delivery partner within the Enterprise Transformation Office, translating enterprise change strategy into workstream-level action across complex, large-scale initiatives such as the Phoenix integration. This senior individual contributor partners directly with workstream leaders, project management, and the Director of Change Management to drive readiness, manage change impacts, and strengthen adoption across the organization. The role requires deep change management experience, the judgment to operate in ambiguity, and the ability to author clear change communications in support of a broader enterprise change narrative. The Senior Change Management Specialist is a key contributor to building repeatable change capability that endures beyond any single initiative.

This is a full time, hybrid Senior Change Management Specialist role located in Brentwood, TN.
