About The Position

The Group AI Transformation Manager is the primary driver of AI adoption across a group of 6+ business units, reporting to the Group Leader and partnering closely with the Modaxo AI Centre of Excellence (CoE). This is fundamentally a change, commercial, and capability role — the human bridge between enterprise AI strategy and operational reality of each business unit. The AI Transformation Manager does not build the business unit’s AI solutions; they accelerate the pace at which AI is adopted, embedded, generates value driving solutions for our customers that are brought to market quickly and scaled across the group. Strong candidates will typically come from transformation, senior business units partnering backgrounds or commercial and technical strategy backgrounds. Remote candidates in North America are considered with regular travel expected.

Requirements

Demonstrable track record leading complex, multi-business unit change programs — ideally technology-related.
Background in management consulting, business transformation, change management, digital program leadership, or senior commercial roles with significant change exposure in a software development or technology area.
Evidence of translating strategy into practical action through people who do not report to them; experience coaching and enabling others.
Minimum 5 years of progressive experience in transformation, change, or strategic business unit partnering roles.
Post-secondary degree in Business Administration, Commerce, Organizational Behavior, or related field preferred.
