  • Have experience in pharma, biotech, healthcare, consulting, or technology-enabled transformation.
  • Bring experience in areas such as commercial transformation, field deployment, workflow redesign, AI/digital tool adoption, or new ways of working.

  • Facilitate change management assessments and develop readiness and adoption plans, using innovative tools and embedding AI where possible.
  • Influence sponsors, people leaders, functional teams, product/technology teams, P&O, communications, learning, controls, and external partners.
  • Identify adoption risks, translate evidence into interventions, and escalate barriers related to leadership, capability, process, policy, controls, capacity, or ownership.

  • Develop and lead implementation and adoption plans covering outcomes, interventions, role changes, training, and communications.
  • Align deployment and change management activities across business, technology, people, learning, communications, and operational teams.
  • Equip leaders, sponsors, and champions with tools and strategies to drive change adoption.
  • Monitor readiness, adoption, usage, and feedback to identify barriers and accelerate business outcomes.
  • Lead interventions to address risks, remove obstacles, and support post-launch adoption.
