About the Role

FCM Meetings & Events is undertaking a significant global transformation program to standardize operations with an integrated technology and process stack. This 2-year program requires a Global Change Manager to lead the end-to-end change strategy and delivery, empowering local leaders to drive change within their teams. The role involves developing a global change framework and adapting it for regional and local implementation, ensuring success across various deployment modes and market nuances.

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end change strategy for M&E SOM, aligned to the FCTG Change Framework and the Ready, Willing, Able model.
  • Build on existing FCTG change IP, leveraging existing frameworks and learnings.
  • Define and orchestrate the relay operating model: global framework, regional nuance, local delivery.
  • Adapt change approach based on deployment mode and regional culture.
  • Anticipate and plan for the programme's growing scope.
  • Equip market and regional leaders to be the visible face of change.
  • Invest in leader confidence and capability before market delivery.
  • Coach M&E leaders on visible change leadership and embedding behavioral shifts.
  • Identify and develop local change champions in each market.
  • Partner with M&E Global GM, regional GMs, market leadership, and the central M&E SOM programme team for engagement.
  • Develop programme-level communications strategy and frameworks, partnering with local resources for market-specific assets.
  • Proactively identify and manage resistance through structured listening and feedback loops.
  • Represent change interests in working groups, Steerco, and cross-functional forums.
  • Assess change readiness in each market using the Ready, Willing, Able framework.
  • Measure business readiness against activity, tracking indicators of genuine preparation.
  • Define and track adoption metrics, sentiment indicators, and behavioral success measures.
  • Support hypercare and post-go-live sustainment activities.
  • Apply lessons learned from each market to refine the change approach.
  • Partner with L&D resources to design and coordinate training for new technology, processes, and ways of working.
  • Coordinate training delivery with Deployment to align with market sequencing and go-live windows.
  • Build a sustainable capability uplift approach for post-go-live adoption.
  • Integrate M&E SOM training assets into the wider FCTG learning ecosystem.
  • Lead the design and delivery of the M&E SOM 'deployment-in-a-box' change toolkit.
  • Build the foundation layer of the toolkit: change architecture, learning ecosystem, communications toolkit, product stewardship, and deployment readiness assets.
  • Ensure the toolkit blueprint flexes for specific transitions and market nuances.
  • Govern toolkit maintenance and continuous improvement.
  • Conduct change impact assessments across all in-scope markets.
  • Build and maintain stakeholder matrices, sentiment trackers, readiness indicators, and resistance maps.
  • Use assessment outputs to shape enablement, communications, and training plans.
  • Develop programme-level communications frameworks, including message frameworks, launch playbooks, and FAQ scripts.
  • Partner with local comms, marketing, and brand resources to create market-specific assets.
  • Manage two-way engagement through feedback loops, sentiment capture, and listening forums.
  • Define training needs and design learning solutions with L&D.
  • Coordinate training delivery against deployment sequencing.
  • Capture training effectiveness and adoption feedback for continuous improvement.
  • Manage change management reporting across the programme for leadership visibility.
  • Coach M&E leaders and delivery team members on change practice.
  • Collaborate within the FCTG Change Community of Practice to share tools and lessons learned.

Requirements

  • Deep knowledge of M&E or wider FCTG is more valuable than a polished change CV.
  • Strong familiarity with how M&E or FCTG operates, including internal stakeholders, structure, ways of working, brand, and culture.
  • Demonstrated experience contributing to or leading change activity on technology or transformation projects.
  • Working understanding of structured change methodology and frameworks (FCTG Change Framework / Ready, Willing, Able preferred; Prosci, ADKAR or equivalent welcomed).
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, able to build trust and influence across seniority levels and regional cultures without formal authority.
  • Strong communication craft, including clear writing and designing engaging communications assets.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, lean, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Curiosity, adaptability, and willingness to step boldly into new spaces.
  • Experience working across multiple time zones and regional cultures is advantageous.
  • Travel, events, or hospitality sector experience is welcome but not essential.
  • Tertiary qualification or certification in Organisational Change Management, Project Management, Marketing, Communications, or a related discipline is desirable but not essential.
  • Prosci, ADKAR, APMG Change Management or equivalent change certification is beneficial.
  • Familiarity with the FCTG Change Framework is a significant advantage.
