Job Description

Job Title:

Principal, Transformation Management (Bilingual - English/French*) (Vacant Role)

*Language Requirement: Professional fluency in English and French (spoken and written) is required for this position due to regular collaboration with French-speaking clients, stakeholders, and team members.

As a Principal Transformation Manager at Slalom, you will play a critical role in leading the execution of complex transformations for our Canadian clients. You will shape outcomes by orchestrating people, process, and technology change-while contributing to the growth and maturity of Slalom's Transformation Design & Leadership (TDL) practice in Canada.

You will help organizations fundamentally change and optimize how they deliver value by defining, managing, and executing multifaceted people-process-technology journeys in response to opportunity and disruption, both external and internal.

You will work closely with Transformation Architects, Cloud and AI technologists, change leaders, and client executives to ensure transformations are well-governed, adopted, and delivered with measurable impact-particularly in the context of modern technology disruption.

So, what will I do?

Design and Lead Client-Centric Transformation Programs

• Design transformation programs with clients, partnering with executives and transformation sponsors to shape programs that are grounded in their strategic objectives, organizational context, and constraints.
• Translate client ambitions related to Cloud and AI disruption into structured, executable transformation programs that integrate people, process, and technology change.
• Facilitate collaborative design sessions to define transformation scope, outcomes, success measures, and delivery approach, ensuring shared ownership between Slalom and client leaders.
• Design transformation programs that balance speed, risk, adoption, and value realization, tailoring governance, cadence, and delivery models to the client's maturity and change capacity.

Lead and Orchestrate Large Transformations

• Serve as a Transformation Manager and trusted advisor, accountable for driving the execution of large-scale Cloud-and AI-enabled transformation programs.
• Manage complex, multi-workstream transformations that span technical program design, Cloud, Data and AI enablement, transformation execution, organizational readiness, and adoption.
• Ensure Cloud and AI initiatives move from experimentation to enterprise-scale, value-driven delivery, with clear milestones, outcomes, and accountability.
• Support the operationalization of AI Offices, Cloud Centres of Excellence (CCoEs), and transformation governance models.

Execute Integrated People-Process-Technology Journeys

• Translate transformation strategy and operating model intent into executable roadmaps, plans, and delivery structures.
• Coordinate across business, technology, Cloud, AI, and change teams to ensure workstreams remain aligned and interdependent impacts are actively managed.
• Drive execution of Cloud- and AI-enabled use cases, ensuring alignment to enterprise priorities, readiness, and measurable business outcomes.
• Manage dependencies across enterprise architecture evolution, platform adoption, and organizational change without owning solution design.

Grow Slalom's Transformation Capability

• Contribute to the evolution of Slalom's Cloud and AI transformation management offerings, including playbooks, templates, and accelerators.
• Mentor and coach consultants across TDL and partner teams, building strength in transformation management, change execution, and Cloud & AI fluency.
• Support proposal development by shaping credible, executable transformation approaches grounded in delivery experience.

And, what will I bring?

To be successful as a Principal within TDL's Transformation Management capability, you will bring:

• 7+ years of experience in consulting, program management, or transformation leadership roles delivering enterprise-scale business and technology change.
• Proven experience managing Cloud- and AI-enabled transformation programs, including adoption, governance, and organizational change.
• Strong working fluency in Cloud and AI concepts, enabling you to manage technical workstreams, challenge assumptions, and support informed decision-making (without being the solution architect).
• Demonstrated strength in transformation execution, particularly across:
• Change management planning and delivery
• Learning and development coordination
• Workforce readiness and adoption enablement
• Experience leading multi-capability, cross-functional programs, aligning business leaders, technologists, and AI practitioners
• Ability to manage complex dependencies across people, process, and technology in evolving enterprise environments.
• Strong executive communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to translate delivery progress and risks into clear, actionable insights.
• Experience operating in ambiguity, influencing without authority, and maintaining delivery discipline across long-running transformations.

Additional Information

This role emphasizes transformation execution and orchestration, not solution architecture or engineering delivery. Success is defined by the ability to manage complexity, enable adoption, and ensure Cloud and AI investments deliver sustained business value.

Exposure to modern Cloud and AI ecosystems (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP, enterprise AI platforms) is beneficial to support effective collaboration and informed program leadership.
