About the role

This is a unique opportunity for a high-performing marketing or advertising professional to play a key role in delivering transformation initiatives across some of our most strategic client engagements. Working alongside senior transformation leadership, you will help drive stakeholder engagement, communications, learning, adoption, and activation efforts across large-scale business and marketing transformation programs. The successful candidate will act as a connector across clients, capabilities, and delivery teams, helping translate transformation objectives into practical actions, compelling communications, engaging learning experiences, and measurable adoption outcomes. This role is ideal for someone who has excelled within a marketing, advertising, or agency environment, and is looking to broaden their experience across multiple clients, fields, and transformation initiatives while developing expertise in transformation, change, communications, and adoption.

Who will thrive in this role

You are a strong agency, marketing, or advertising services professional who enjoys bringing people, ideas, and capabilities together to drive meaningful outcomes. You are curious, collaborative, and comfortable operating across multiple stakeholders and workstreams. You enjoy solving complex challenges, creating clarity from ambiguity, and helping organizations adopt new ways of working. Most importantly, you can confidently move between stakeholder management, facilitation, communications planning, content development, and day-to-day client engagement while maintaining a high standard of quality and professionalism.

Why this role

This role provides a unique opportunity to work across multiple clients, functions, and transformation programs rather than remaining focused on a single account or discipline. You will gain exposure to communications, learning, change management, consulting, strategy, and organizational transformation while helping shape how change and transformation is delivered across strategic client relationships.
