Change Enablement Specialist

Must have full Australian Working Rights and based in Adelaide, SA. No Sponsorships available.

About the Role

A leading South Australian education provider is seeking an experienced, high-level Change Resource to establish the strategic change foundations for a major technology modernisation program. Based at Regency Park, this is an initial contract through to October 2026 with the possibility of extension.

This is a pre-vendor, discovery-phase engagement. You will not be implementing a solution, you will be building the strategic groundwork that ensures the organisation is ready, aligned, and positioned for successful adoption when implementation begins.

What You Will Be Doing

Change Strategy

  • Develop a Change Strategy centred on an “adoption over adaptation” philosophy
  • Define guiding principles for aligning business processes to standard software capabilities
  • Establish a Change Control and Design Authority governance model suited to an out-of-the-box SaaS implementation

Readiness and Impact

  • Assess organisational culture, leadership sponsorship, and capacity to absorb transformation
  • Review lessons learned from previous change initiatives and translate into practical guidance
  • Conduct a capability-based Change Impact Assessment across People, Data, and Technology dimensions

Stakeholder Engagement

  • Identify and categorise key internal and external stakeholder groups
  • Design a pre-vendor communication strategy focused on setting clear expectations
  • Establish feedback mechanisms including surveys, focus groups, and targeted playbacks

Skills and Experience

  • Proven experience leading change management on complex, enterprise-wide technology transformation programs
  • Strong capability in organisational readiness assessments, stakeholder engagement, and impact analysis
  • Sound understanding of out-of-the-box SaaS implementation principles and standardisation-led change
  • Experience working within program and portfolio governance structures
  • Ability to produce clear, evidence-based, executive-ready deliverables
  • Background in public sector or education environments advantageous but not essential
