AI Enablement & Adaptation Manager

Varonis

1d • Remote

About The Position

Varonis is building an AI-powered organization across platforms including Microsoft 365 Copilot, Claude, Gemini, AgentForce, GitHub Copilot and more. IT Business Applications owns the platforms, governance, and guardrails. Business teams build on top of them.
The AI Enablement & Adaptation Manager is the link between those two worlds. As platforms evolve and IT updates its guidance, this role ensures every team across Varonis stays informed, capable, and building confidently within the right boundaries. This is an always-on, continuous function — not a one-time rollout.
You'll join IT Business Applications as an individual contributor with the expectation of building a team as the function matures.

Requirements

• 5–8 years in change management, organizational transformation, or corporate L&D
• Proven track record driving technology adoption at scale across cross-functional organizations
• Working knowledge of enterprise AI platforms (M365 Copilot, Salesforce AI, GitHub Copilot, Claude, Gemini, or similar)
• Exceptional communication and facilitation skills across all seniority levels
• Ability to influence without authority; data-driven approach to measuring impact

Nice To Haves

• Change management certification (Prosci, CCMP, or equivalent)
• Experience in SaaS, cybersecurity, or high-growth tech
• Background in instructional design or corporate education
• Familiarity with AI governance and responsible AI frameworks

Responsibilities

• Drive company-wide AI adoption by building a culture where teams use AI confidently and within IT's established guardrails
• Apply structured change management frameworks (e.g., Prosci/ADKAR) to move teams from awareness to active, informed use
• Identify adoption friction by department and persona — knowledge gaps, guardrail confusion, lack of confidence — and design targeted interventions
• Build and manage an AI Champions network to extend reach across departments and maintain a real-time pulse on adoption health
• Partner with IT to ensure every platform rollout or policy update includes a clear adoption plan before it reaches the business
• Serve as the ongoing education layer between IT and the business — continuously translating evolving tools, guidance, and guardrails into timely, actionable communication
• Proactively get platform updates and policy changes into teams' hands before they become blockers
• Run ongoing, audience-tailored education sessions for executives, team leads, and individual contributors as the AI landscape evolves
• Help teams understand not just what the tools do, but why the guardrails exist — framing governance as an enabler of faster, safer building
• Stay ahead of updates across all current and future AI platforms and translate new capabilities into practical education
• Define and track adoption KPIs: activation rates, feature utilization, guardrail adherence, and team confidence
• Surface where education isn't landing or where guardrails are creating friction, and feed that back to IT so guidance stays practical and current
• Report regularly to IT leadership, connecting adoption trends to business outcomes
• Own the enablement function end-to-end as an individual contributor; define the team structure and grow it as the function scales

Benefits

• High-visibility mandate with direct exposure to the CIO organization
• Build the function from scratch — define what AI enablement looks like at Varonis
• Company-wide impact across every team and department
• Fast-moving, always-evolving challenge for someone who thrives on continuous learning
• Clear growth path as the function and team scale
