Job description

Company Description

  • Identify and analyse change challenges and translate them into clear, practical change approaches
  • Develop adoption‑focused strategies that make new behaviours, roles and ways of working clear and applicable

Job Description

As a Change Manager, you operate close to the business and play a hands‑on role in making change work in practice. You identify the underlying change challenges, develop a pragmatic and actionable change approach and take ownership of the full implementation. You translate process, workflow and system changes into concrete guidance, behaviours and routines that teams can apply in their daily work. In this role, you work closely with Business Analysts, Process Journey Managers, process owners, IT, HR and Communication to ensure that new ways of working are not only introduced, but truly embedded. You guide teams through transitions, facilitate sessions that make change tangible and accessible, and address resistance and capability gaps with targeted interventions. You monitor adoption, gather feedback and adjust your approach where needed. This role gives you significant space to shape each change initiative yourself, while contributing to the professionalisation of change‑capability within Central Services.

Central Services forms the backbone of our internal service organization. The Transformation Office drives improvements that are practical, sustainable and aligned with how teams actually work. We collaborate closely, support each other and share the ambition to build an organization that is ready for the future — scalable, digital and people‑centred.

Ready to play a key role in making change happen? We look forward to hearing from you. You’re welcome to reach out with any questions about the role or the team.
