What will your typical day look like?

As a Senior Consultant in the Change Management group, expect that no two days will be quite the same; that each day will bring new opportunities to learn, grow, and serve our clients; and move forward our overarching mission of providing job opportunities for emerging and experienced professionals in the technology space.

You will be responsible for the development and execution of change management strategies such as interested party assessments, change readiness, communications, marketing, and training, in partnership with project teams, to support the deployment of information technology products and services. You will work on intermediate to complex scale projects, participating in project planning and status meetings, identifying deployment risks and mitigations, and providing updates according to plan.

In your role you will:

• Determine change management deployment requirements for each project through interested parties analysis, change readiness assessment, and other assessments, in partnership with the project teams
• Develop and validate the change management deployment approach for technology solutions, including detailed plans for adoption, change communication, and training and ongoing maintenance
• Identify risks to project schedule and plan mitigations to meet deployment requirements on time
• Deliver learning to internal groups, which may include group facilitation, planning, and logistics
• Work with product and client management teams to define deployment continuity plans for technology solutions
• Consult with cross-functional teams on change management, learning and development, and communications deployment approach
• Actively participate in continuous improvement by contributing best practices and lessons learned

You will play a critical role in delivering change management services to our clients, mainly in the Government and Public Sector and Energy and Resources Sector, focussing mainly on technology implementations (such as SAP and Oracle). You will leverage state-of-the-art research, analytics, and industry insights to provide our clients with business-ready solutions, frequently focussed on business transformations.
