About the role:

Accelerate sustained adoption of enterprise DA&I capabilities by preparing users, embedding new ways of working and measuring behavior change and realized value. The role owns enablement and adoption outcomes; product teams own product delivery and business leaders own operating decisions.

• Set adoption and enablement plan: Identify impacted audiences, readiness risks and required interventions; sequence communications, training, champions and reinforcement.

• Embed new ways of working: Partner with leaders and users to integrate data and analytics into roles, routines, decisions and performance conversations.

• Coordinate activation: Reuse enterprise assets, orchestrate product and local stakeholders, and tailor only where language, regulation or operating context requires it.

• Measure and improve adoption: Track reach, proficiency, usage, behavior change and value; diagnose gaps and drive targeted corrective action.

Key Competencies

• Change and adoption leadership: Designs interventions that move users from awareness to sustained behavior change.

• Business engagement: Builds commitment with leaders and user communities across diverse contexts.

• Evidence-led execution: Uses adoption and value data to diagnose barriers and prioritize action.

Essential requirements:

• 5+ years of relevant experience in change management, learning, communications, stakeholder engagement and adoption measurement, including accountability in a complex global or multi-market organisation.

• Demonstrated delivery of measurable outcomes in a scope comparable to Data Literacy Lead, with clear ownership of decisions, priorities and stakeholder alignment.

• Proven ability to work across business, product and technology teams in a matrixed or federated operating model.

• Strong written and verbal communication, with the judgement to influence senior stakeholders and escalate material risks clearly.

• Practical understanding of data governance, security, privacy, responsible use and financial discipline relevant to the role.

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience in a relevant business, data, technology, engineering or design discipline.
