Senior Change Activation Partner

The Opportunity

At BetterUp, we’re building a new kind of partnership with our customers – one that drives deep transformation. The key to any long-lasting transformation is strong change management – that’s where you come in. As part of the first team of Senior Change Activation Partners, you’ll play a central role in helping transformations for our enterprise clients be successful.

• Lead change communications strategy for major enterprise deployments, designing narratives and messaging architectures that inspire adoption and alignment.
• Translate complex business and talent challenges into clear, compelling change narratives — and advise on how to keep the momentum going.
• Build trust and influence across senior stakeholders, acting as a thought partner, advisor, and driver of change.
• Map stakeholders and cascade paths, identifying champions and skeptics, and designing strategies that build trust across complex organizations.
• Develop and deliver campaigns across multiple channels (email, live events, digital platforms, executive forums) with quality and consistency that earns credibility.
• Equip managers and frontline leaders with toolkits, talking points, and coaching to act as multipliers of change.
• Sense and adapt in real time—establish listening loops and use insights to refine messaging and interventions.

Who You Are

• 8+ years of experience in high growth transformation, change activation, change management and storytelling.
• Exceptional communication skills and the ability to craft and deliver a narrative that moves hearts and minds.
• Multi-disciplinary skillset that spans change, comms, and experience design—you can think like a consultant and deliver like a marketer.
• Creative and tactical chops, with an eye for quality in copy, visuals, and user experience.
• Resilience and adaptability in managing intense launch cycles and quieter sustain phases without burning out.
• A builder’s mindset—you thrive in ambiguity, enjoy writing the playbook, and don’t need a big team to get started.
• Enterprise client experience, ideally in large-scale, global organizations where complexity is the norm.
