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.
