  • Guide leaders through organizational transitions, equipping them with tools and strategies to champion change effectively.
  • Partner across HR, Project Management, and Communications teams to align messaging, training, and engagement strategies.
  • Measure change effectiveness and reinforce adoption through data-driven insights and ongoing feedback loops.
  • Establish best practices that sustain behavioral and process change across the retail network.
  • Strategic Communication (in support of change initiatives)

  • Develop operational communication plans that help retail teams understand and implement upcoming changes.
  • Craft clear and actionable messages for diverse audiences, including executives, managers, and frontline teams.
  • Ensure all communications reinforce alignment with Sunward's strategic direction and operational priorities.
  • Requirements

    What You Bring

  • 6+ years of progressive experience in project management, operational readiness, or change management , preferably in retail banking or large-scale service environments.
  • Proven track record of leading complex, enterprise-wide initiatives with measurable outcomes.
  • Strong ability to advise, influence, and collaborate with senior leaders.
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Project Management, or related field required; advanced degree or certifications (PMP, Prosci, MBA) preferred.
  • Expertise in operational planning, capacity modeling, and project execution methodologies (Agile, Waterfall, or hybrid).
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and project management tools (ClickUp, MS Project, or similar).
  • Why Join Sunward
