About the Role:

We are seeking a collaborative and execution-focused Sr. Change Management & Enablement Strategist to support employee readiness and adoption across multiple technology and experience transformation initiatives.

This role plays a key part in ensuring employees are equipped, informed, and confident as new tools, systems, and processes are introduced.

The Sr. Change Management & Enablement Strategist partners closely with program leaders, IT stakeholders, and cross-functional teams to translate transformation initiatives into clear, actionable enablement plans that drive understanding, engagement, and sustained adoption.

Key Responsibilities:

Change Planning & Readiness Support

  • Partner with initiative leads to support change planning activities for technology and process transformations.

  • Assist in assessing change impacts on employee groups and operational teams.

Enablement Strategy & Execution (Primary Focus)

  • Design and develop enablement assets including training materials, user guides, toolkits, job aids, FAQs, SharePoint sites, and self-service resources.

  • Partner with subject matter experts to translate technical updates into clear, actionable content.

  • Coordinate and deliver training sessions (live, virtual, or on-demand).

  • Develop role-based enablement approaches tailored to different employee audiences.

  • Support the establishment of change champion or super-user networks.

  • Create feedback loops to gather employee insights and continuously refine enablement materials.

  • Monitor adoption metrics and adjust enablement strategies to improve engagement and utilization.

Stakeholder Engagement & Communications Support

  • Collaborate with stakeholders to understand audience needs and adoption challenges.

  • Draft and support targeted communications that reinforce enablement efforts.

  • Help ensure messaging aligns with program goals and is sequenced appropriately.

  • Provide leaders with talking points and materials to support their teams through change.

Adoption & Continuous Improvement

  • Track adoption, engagement, and effectiveness metrics.

  • Conduct post-launch reviews to assess enablement effectiveness.

  • Recommend improvements to increase sustained adoption.

  • Contribute to developing repeatable templates and best practices for future initiatives.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Organizational Change, Communications, HR, IT, or related field.

  • 5-8 years of experience in change management, enablement, training, organizational development, or technology implementation support.

  • Experience supporting technology or process transformation initiatives.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.

  • Experience developing training materials and enablement resources.

  • Ability to work effectively in cross-functional, matrixed environments.

  • Strong organizational and project coordination skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Familiarity with change management methodologies (e.g., ADKAR, Prosci).

  • Experience supporting digital transformation, AI enablement, or employee experience initiatives.

  • Experience creating content in tools such as PowerPoint, SharePoint, learning platforms, or knowledge management systems.

  • Exposure to Agile delivery environments.

  • Basic experience measuring adoption metrics and analyzing feedback data.

What Success Looks Like in This Role:

  • Employees feel informed, prepared, and supported during change.

  • Training and enablement materials are clear, accessible, and practical.

  • Adoption rates meet or exceed program targets.

  • Leaders are equipped with tools to support their teams.
