Do you have a track record of building partnerships with a range of stakeholder audiences and delivering effective change engagement strategies and related communication? Are you committed to using your professional expertise to promote a people-centred approach to change and enable the University to achieve its strategic ambitions?

The University is currently establishing a large change programme to deliver improvements to our corporate processes and systems. The Corporate Processes & Systems Programme is a transformational change programme that will improve the processes, systems, data and ways of working across Finance, Human Resources, Procurement and Strategy & Planning that support both the delivery of Corporate Services and planning within the University. The vision is to create a University enabled by streamlined and consistent processes and robust and insightful data, with clear ownership and control, supported by modern and future-proofed technology that is understood and enjoyed by its users. Our ambition is to reduce the time that academic and professional services staff spend on transactional activity and the manual preparation of plans, forecasts and reporting, which will allow a stronger focus on academic and service delivery, business partnering and other value-adding activity.

We are looking for a change engagement and communications specialist to help engage colleagues and other internal and external stakeholder groups in the planned changes for those Services within the programme scope including service users. Reporting to the CPS Programme People Lead, and with matrixed reporting line to the Head of Internal Communications, you will be a member of the People & Change Team, initially embedded within the CPS Programme Team. You will be required to align all engagement and communication activity with University-wide approaches and standards and work closely with the Communications and Engagement Manager within the Transformation Office.

You will have proven expertise in change engagement and related communications and the ability to balance priorities, deal with complex stakeholder needs and succeed through cooperation and collaboration with others. As a member of the People & Change Team, you will help to promote the benefits of a people-centred approach to change management and form part of a network with other change practitioners across the University.

As Change Engagement Adviser, you must be able to demonstrate significant experience in working at an influential and productive level in stakeholder engagement and communications supporting change initiatives, from strategic design through to content and event delivery.
