Contract Type: 2 year FTC

Are you ready to make a significant impact in a dynamic environment? Our client, a forward-thinking organisation, is on the lookout for a passionate and innovative Change Programme Organisational Development Lead to drive transformative change across their services!

Why This Role Matters:
In this pivotal position, you'll be at the forefront of delivering a comprehensive change approach that prioritises resident-centred, preventative, and place-based services. Your expertise will help build a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement, empowering leadership and enhancing organisational capacity for a digital future.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Strategic Development: Support the design and implementation of an Organisational Development (OD) strategy that aligns with the change programme, utilising diagnostic insights to identify key interventions and measures of impact.
  • Change Leadership: Act as a strategic resource in OD, ensuring that leadership development and change interventions are aligned with the Council's core shifts: from Reaction to Prevention, Complexity to Simplicity, and Surviving to Thriving.
  • Culture Shift: Drive a transformation from siloed service delivery to integrated, community-led models, fostering proactive engagement and collaboration.
  • Capability Building: Establish a core curriculum to enhance digital fluency and adaptive leadership skills among staff, equipping them to lead and sustain change.
  • Engagement and Resilience: Embed employee voice and engagement as key drivers for change, designing leadership development programmes that emphasise strategic, collaborative, and data-informed leadership.
  • Continuous Improvement: Develop systems for skills tracking, benefits realisation, and ongoing enhancement of OD programmes.

Who You Are:
We are looking for a dynamic leader with a strong background in OD, HR, or a related field who possesses:

  • A degree or equivalent experience in OD, HR, or Psychology.
  • Proven track record in leading OD strategies within complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
  • Expertise in designing and delivering leadership development and employee engagement programmes.
  • Familiarity with place-based working and experience in driving cultural change.
  • Excellent facilitation and communication skills to engage diverse stakeholders.

What We Offer:

  • A vibrant and inclusive workplace focused on innovation and collaboration.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development.
  • The chance to lead meaningful change in a supportive environment.

Ready to Join?
If you're excited about driving transformational change and making a difference in your community, we want to hear from you! Apply today and become part of a team that values creativity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
