You Are

A highly strategic and results-oriented Associate Director, Transformation Advisor to help organizations navigate complex business transformations and achieve sustainable growth. This role serves as a trusted advisor to senior executives, translating business strategy into actionable transformation initiatives that drive measurable business outcomes.

The Work

This is an advisory role embedded within the Transformation team, working directly alongside the Transformation Lead to provide independent strategic counsel across core workstreams like Change & Comms, Capability/Learning, AI Transformation, and Markets Mobilization.

The ideal candidate brings a strong strategy consulting background with deep experience in organizational transformation, operating model design, business process optimization, change management, and digital and AI-driven innovation. Unlike a delivery role, this position is focused on shaping, challenging, and pressure-testing the transformation agenda - ensuring the right problems are being solved in the right sequence, and that recommendations are grounded in best practice and commercially viable.

The role requires executive presence, sound judgement, and the ability to operate across multiple functions and geographies - always in service of the transformation program's objectives rather than as an independent operator.

You Will

• Advise and challenge - provide independent, objective counsel to the Transformation Lead and workstream owners; constructively challenge assumptions, approaches, and priorities.
• Diagnose and design - identify gaps in operating models, processes, and capability; design structured recommendations that are practical and implementation-ready.
• Shape the AI transformation agenda - bring informed perspective on AI adoption, use case prioritization, and the organizational changes required to embed AI at scale.
• Translate ambiguity into action - structure complex, undefined problems into clear frameworks, action plans, and decision points for senior stakeholders.
• Support executive engagement - prepare and support the Transformation Lead in senior stakeholder conversations; help build the narrative and case for change at leadership level.
• Bridge strategy and delivery - produce recommendations in a form the PM and workstream leads can act on; ensure the handoff from strategic advice to execution is clean and unambiguous.
• Drive value realization - maintain a clear line of sight to commercial outcomes; ensure transformation activity is tied to measurable business impact.

Job Requirement

• Occasional travel may be required.
• This is a global team, meetings outside of typical business hours are anticipated.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree
• Minimum of 10 years of experience in one or a combination of the following: strategy consulting, management consulting, business transformation, corporate strategy, deal advisory, or transformation leadership.
• Minimum of 5 years of experience in one or a combination of the following: developing business cases, operating models, transformation roadmaps, pricing strategies, or financial models.

Preferred Skills

• Master's degree
• MBA
• Experience advising senior executives or executive leadership teams.
• Experience analyzing business, operational, financial, or transformation data to support strategic decision-making.
• Experience with AI transformation, AI adoption, or digital transformation programs.
• Experience with change management, organizational transformation, governance, risk management, or agile transformation.
• Experience with enterprise strategy, growth strategy, operating model design, or value realization.
• Experience with competitive analysis, market assessment, pricing, profitability optimization, or commercial transformation.
• Executive communication, stakeholder management, negotiation, coaching, and team leadership skills.
