- Lead communications: Create clear, compelling messaging that explains the “why” behind the transformation, keeps employees informed, and celebrates success stories.
- Ensure readiness: Analyze impacts on HR and Finance processes, assess business readiness, and implement targeted actions to prepare teams for go-live.
- Build a change champion network: Set up and guide local ambassadors who will act as advocates, run info sessions, and support their colleagues.
- Drive user adoption & training: Design and oversee robust training programs (including “train-the-trainer”), foster new ways of working, and monitor adoption KPIs.
- Collaborate & report: Work closely with the program leadership team, integrate change activities into the overall plan, and provide transparent progress updates.
- University degree in Business, Organizational Psychology, Communications, HR, or a related field; certifications in Change Management (e.g. Prosci), Project Management (PMP/Agile), and/or Systemic Coaching are a plus.
- 5+ years' experience in change management for large-scale transformation programs, ideally SAP S/4HANA or ERP implementations.
- Strong knowledge of change management principles, best practices, and methodologies (e.g. Prosci ADKAR or similar).
- Excellent stakeholder management skills, confident in engaging senior leadership and acting as a trusted advisor.
- Outstanding communication skills in English (written and verbal); additional European languages are a plus.
- Proven experience in designing and coordinating end-user training programs.
- Analytical, data-driven, and adaptable to evolving project needs.
- Prior experience in international, multi-country projects; cultural awareness and willingness to travel within Europe.
- Advance your career with exciting professional opportunities in our thriving company with a startup feel
- Voice your unique ideas in a corporate culture defined by our entrepreneurial spirit, openness, and integrity
- Feel at home working with our helpful, enthusiastic colleagues who have great team spirit
- Broaden your perspective with our extensive training curriculum and learning programs (e.g. LinkedIn Learning)

We believe in building a culture that embraces diversity, equity, and inclusion, creating an environment in which our people feel valued, are able to be themselves and feel their contribution matters. If we get that right, remarkable things will happen; people will grow faster, innovate, feel valued, and create better outcomes for everyone – our people, our clients and, of course, our business..
