The Corporate Processes & Systems Program is a groundbreaking initiative designed to enhance the procedures, systems, data, and operational methods across Finance, Human Resources, Procurement, and Strategy & Planning that support both the delivery of Corporate Services and strategic planning at the University.

The ideal candidate will have demonstrated expertise in change engagement and related communications, along with the ability to prioritize, navigate complex stakeholder needs, and achieve success through collaboration. As a member of the People & Change Team, you will help advocate for the advantages of a people-centered approach to change management and engage in a network with other change practitioners throughout the University.
