You will be part of Imperial’s Transformation Team, a multidisciplinary function that supports strategic priorities across the university. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced change professional who thrives in complex environments, brings credibility with senior stakeholders, and is motivated by delivering meaningful organisational impact.

In this role, you will lead the development and delivery of change strategies and plans that support adoption, readiness and benefits realisation across major programmes.

We are looking for a confident and credible change leader with significant experience of delivering complex transformation in large, matrixed organisations including experience of digital change and technology-enabled transformation ideally within higher education or a similar environment.

You will bring excellent stakeholder engagement skills, a strong grasp of change methodologies, and the ability to translate strategy into practical action. You will also be comfortable navigating ambiguity, influencing at senior level, and helping teams and individuals move successfully through change.
