The Opportunity What should an organization look like when its strategy demands something new?As an Organizational Design Consultant, you'll help translate TMU's strategic vision into the structures, operating models, and ways of working that enable the University to achieve its strategic goals. Working on large-scale organizational design and transformation initiatives, you'll help shape how people, work, and resources come together to support TMU's evolving priorities and future direction.
Working closely with the Project Director, Transformation & Organizational Effectiveness and senior leaders across the University, you'll bring analytical rigour, curiosity, and an organizational design lens to complex institutional challenges. You'll assess current-state structures and ways of working, identify opportunities for improvement, and develop future-state models that align organizational capabilities with strategic priorities.
You'll play an important role in turning executive vision into practical organizational solutions. Through organizational analysis, design modelling, workforce planning, and implementation planning, you'll help leaders understand the implications of different approaches and make informed decisions about how their organizations can operate more effectively.
You'll also help guide the transition from today's organization to tomorrow's. Applying organizational design, change management, and project management practices, you'll support implementation planning, stakeholder engagement, and the development of practical approaches that enable people and teams to navigate organizational change successfully.
Working across organizational boundaries, you'll collaborate with leaders, HR colleagues, and diverse stakeholders to ensure transformation initiatives are thoughtful, evidence-informed, and aligned with TMU's broader HR transformation agenda. You'll help establish structures and approaches that are not only effective today, but scalable and sustainable for the University's future.
This is an opportunity to help shape the organization behind the strategy. Your work will help turn ambitious ideas from TMU's leaders into organizational structures, operating models, and ways of working that make those ambitions possible.
If you're energized by complex organizational challenges, enjoy moving between strategy and detailed analysis, and are motivated by helping organizations become more effective, adaptable, and future-ready, this is an opportunity to play a meaningful role in TMU's transformation journey.
