    Overview:

    We are seeking a dynamic HR Change Management / Project Manager to support critical HR and L&D initiatives across our client’s US operations. This individual will play a key role in delivering training, managing change initiatives, and supporting stakeholder engagement through upcoming HR system and process changes. This is not a traditional onboarding role — we’re looking for someone who has been deeply involved in HR-related projects, particularly around systems like Workday, training delivery, and communications.

     

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Lead and support HR and Learning & Development projects, ensuring effective implementation and user adoption.
    • Develop and deliver internal communications and training materials related to HR systems and initiatives (e.g., Workday modules).
    • Serve as the liaison between HR stakeholders and project teams to assess change impacts and ensure smooth rollouts.
    • Partner with internal teams to support training delivery — both in-person and virtual — across various employee groups.
    • Assist in managing the change journey by helping impacted groups understand how system changes affect their work.
    • Support post-implementation efforts such as feedback loops, adoption tracking, and process improvement.
    • Work closely with the UK-based HR Change Management lead, while operating in US East or Central time zones.

    Preferred Qualifications:

    • Minimum 3 years of HR experience, ideally in project or change management roles.
    • Proven track record in managing or supporting HR and L&D projects (beyond onboarding).
    • Strong communication and facilitation skills, with comfort speaking across all levels of the organization.
    • Familiarity with Workday or similar HRIS platforms — configuration skills not required, but a working understanding is highly desirable.
    • Experience delivering training and building out scalable content for HR and system processes.
    • Excellent stakeholder management skills and ability to influence without authority.
    • Strong organizational and project management abilities.

     

    Nice to Have Certifications (Not Required but Preferred):

    • CIPD Level 5+ (especially relevant if experience includes international/UK projects)
    • Prosci® Certified Change Practitioner
    • APMG Change Management Certification
