Ally Financial only succeeds when its people do - and that’s more than some cliché people put on job postings. We live this stuff! We see our people as, well, people - with interests, families, friends, dreams, and causes that are all important to them. Our focus is on the health and safety of our teammates as well as work-life balance and diversity and inclusion.

From generous benefits to a variety of employee resource groups, we strive to build paths that encourage employees to stretch themselves professionally. We want to help you grow, develop, and learn new things. You’re constantly evolving, so shouldn’t your opportunities be, too?

Join the Supply Chain Transformation (SCT) team to own and elevate our governance and change management disciplines across transformation initiatives. You will steward the SCT Project Governance and Change Management playbooks, frameworks, templates, and calendars; guide teams on project types and requirements; and run formal tollgates and forums to ensure alignment, rigor, and compliance with enterprise standards.

You’ll lead change management for strategic programs—shaping strategy, crafting and reviewing communications, coordinating go-lives and bundled releases, and driving stakeholder adoption—while maintaining a consistent transformation narrative and creative strategy.

You’ll build strong cross-functional relationships, proactively support project owners ahead of releases, and champion an environment of innovation, integrity, and teamwork, continually applying industry best practices to deliver best-in-class results.

At this time, Ally will not sponsor a new applicant for employment authorization for this position.
