What You Will Do and Learn
We are hiring an AI Training & Enablement Lead to drive firm-wide adoption of our AI platform and agentic tools. In this role, you are responsible for end-to-end execution, not just strategy. You will design, create, and deliver the training programs, enablement materials, release communications, and change management plans that help 700+ consultants integrate AI into their daily work.
You will own the full lifecycle of user enablement: from onboarding new users, to managing release rollouts, to measuring adoption and identifying friction points. You’ll have access to support resources, while playing a leading role in building and delivering impactful solutions.
In this role, you can expect to:

Requirements

• 5-8+ years of experience in training, enablement, change management, or L&D, with at least 2 years focused on technology or platform adoption.
• Proven ability to design and build training programs from the ground up, including curriculum development, content creation, resource design, and hands-on delivery.
• Strong facilitation skills: you are comfortable leading workshops for groups ranging from 10 to 200 people, both virtually and in person.
• Proven ability to translate complex technical concepts into accessible, engaging content for non-technical audiences.
• Outstanding written and verbal communication skills, with a proven ability to craft clear, concise internal communications that effectively engage audiences.
• Experience working in professional services, consulting, or technology firms.
• Comfortable working in fast-paced environments with evolving priorities, and able to navigate ambiguity without a predefined playbook.

Nice To Haves

• Prior experience with change management frameworks (Prosci, ADKAR, or equivalent). Certification.
• Hands-on experience with generative AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar). You do not need to be an engineer, but you should be a confident, daily user.
• Experience managing enablement for SaaS platform rollouts (Salesforce, Anaplan, ServiceNow, or similar enterprise tools).
• Familiarity with instructional design principles and e-learning authoring tools (Articulate, Loom, Camtasia, or equivalent).
• Background in or exposure to consulting delivery models, T&M billing, and the dynamics of utilization-based businesses.
• Experience building and activating champion or ambassador networks within large organizations.

Responsibilities

• Training Program Design & Delivery
• Build and maintain role-based training curricula for different personas (consultants, architects, engagement leads, practice leaders) aligned to the AI platform's capabilities and governance requirements.
• Create hands-on workshops, quick-start guides, video walkthroughs, prompt libraries, and reference materials that consultants can use in the flow of work.
• Facilitate live training sessions (virtual and in-person) for platform onboarding, new feature releases, and advanced use-case enablement.
• Develop and manage an internal certification or proficiency program to track and incentivize AI skill development.
• Release Management & User Enablement
• Own the user-facing release process: coordinate with the AI platform vendor and internal technical teams to translate product updates into clear, actionable enablement content.
• Manage release notes, feature announcements, and "what's new" communications for each platform update.
• Build and maintain a centralized enablement hub (knowledge base, FAQ, resource library) that serves as the single source of truth for all AI-related guidance.
• Establish feedback loops with end users to surface adoption blockers, training gaps, and feature requests.
• Change Management & Communications
• Design and execute change management strategy for the AI platform rollout, including stakeholder mapping, resistance planning, and leadership alignment.
• Draft internal communications (emails, Teams updates, town hall talking points) that build excitement and reduce friction around new AI capabilities.
• Identify and activate AI Champions across practices to scale peer-to-peer learning and create organic adoption momentum.
• Partner with practice leaders and HR to integrate AI enablement into performance reviews, career development, and onboarding for new hires.
• Adoption Measurement & Continuous Improvement
• Define and track adoption KPIs: active user rates, feature utilization, training completion, satisfaction scores, and time-to-value metrics.
• Conduct regular pulse surveys and user interviews to assess enablement effectiveness and identify areas for improvement.
• Report adoption progress and risks to leadership on a regular cadence, providing actionable recommendations.
• Continuously iterate on training content and delivery methods based on data and user feedback.
