Senior Transformation Change Leader

Duration: 6 Month (Likely to extend)

Who We Are:

AND Digital are a tech company focused on accelerating digital delivery and dedicated to closing the digital skills gap. We’ve been helping organisations build better digital products and stronger digital teams since 2014.

We believe our work should always leave a legacy for the client. We do this through close relationships with our offices (or ‘Clubs’) so that our partners are always prioritised by a regional team close to them.

This unique model has driven success for our clients and ourselves, evidenced by our remarkable organic growth since 2014.

Join us - and help us fulfil our mission to close the world’s digital skills gap.

Role Purpose

We are seeking an experienced Senior Transformation Change Leader to work closely with the senior Leadership Team to drive the successful transition to a new AI Operating Model and support the establishment and mobilisation of the AI Foundry.

This is a senior, hands-on transformation leadership role, requiring a blend of strategic oversight, programme delivery, stakeholder management and operational execution. The successful candidate will act as a key partner to the senior leadership team, ensuring that the transformation translates from strategy and design into tangible operational outcomes.

The role will take ownership of driving coordination, maintaining momentum across multiple interdependent workstreams, managing senior stakeholder expectations and ensuring that key milestones and deliverables are achieved.

This is not a traditional Deputy Director or purely strategic advisory role. It requires someone who is comfortable operating at executive level while also rolling up their sleeves to resolve issues, coordinate activity and drive delivery through to completion.

Key Responsibilities

1. Transformation Leadership & Operating Model Implementation

  • Lead and coordinate the implementation and mobilisation of the new AI Operating Model, working closely with the senior leadership team and relevant delivery partners.
  • Drive the coordination of AI Foundry activities, ensuring alignment across internal teams, external suppliers and other strategic partners.
  • Translate the agreed operating model and transformation strategy into actionable plans, deliverables, milestones and clear accountabilities.
  • Ensure dependencies across workstreams are identified, actively managed and resolved to maintain delivery momentum.
  • Support the transition from operating model design into business-as-usual operations.

2. Executive & Senior Stakeholder Management

  • Act as a trusted partner and sounding board to the Leadership & Executive Team members.
  • Proactively manage executive expectations, providing clear visibility of progress, risks, dependencies and decisions required.
  • Build effective relationships with senior stakeholders across technology, business functions and external partners.
  • Coordinate executive-level updates, governance forums and decision-making processes.
  • Navigate competing priorities and stakeholder interests, ensuring alignment and continued commitment to the transformation agenda.

3. Programme Delivery & Operational Mobilisation

  • Drive the day-to-day coordination and execution of activities required to operationalise the new model and establish the AI Foundry.
  • Take a hands-on approach to critical mobilisation activities, including:
  • Coordinating recruitment and resource mobilisation.
  • Managing the onboarding and integration of nearshore delivery partners.
  • Supporting supplier management, procurement and sourcing activities.
  • Driving engagement and coordination across internal teams and external suppliers.
  • Ensuring the required capabilities, resources and operational infrastructure are in place.
  • Proactively identify delivery challenges and intervene where necessary to unblock issues and accelerate progress.
  • Ensure actions are followed through and that ownership for key deliverables is clear.

4. Governance, Milestones & Delivery Accountability

  • Establish and maintain clear transformation plans, milestones, deliverables and reporting mechanisms.
  • Track progress against agreed objectives, challenging delays and holding individuals and workstream leads accountable for delivery.
  • Provide clear, concise reporting to the Senior Leadership & Executive Team on progress, risks, issues and required interventions.
  • Ensure appropriate governance and escalation mechanisms are in place without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • Drive resolution of cross-functional dependencies and ensure decisions are made at the appropriate level and pace.

5. Driving Pace, Momentum & Change

  • Act as a catalyst for change, creating energy, focus and momentum across the transformation.
  • Maintain a strong delivery focus, ensuring that strategic intent translates into practical action and measurable outcomes.
  • Challenge inertia, address barriers and navigate organisational complexity to keep the programme moving forward.
  • Bring structure and clarity to ambiguous or evolving situations.
  • Support leaders and teams through the transition, helping embed new ways of working and ensuring the operating model is successfully adopted.

Experience & Capability Required

The successful candidate will demonstrate:

  • Significant experience leading complex business or technology transformations, ideally within a large, matrixed organisation.
  • A proven track record of working directly with CIOs, C-suite executives and senior leadership teams to drive strategic transformation and operational change.
  • Strong programme leadership and delivery management capabilities, with the ability to translate strategic objectives into executable plans and tangible outcomes.
  • Experience implementing new operating models, mobilising teams and establishing new organisational capabilities.
  • Demonstrable experience coordinating multiple workstreams, internal teams, third-party suppliers and strategic delivery partners.
  • Experience of resource mobilisation, recruitment coordination, supplier onboarding, procurement and sourcing activities.
  • Exceptional stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the confidence to challenge senior individuals and hold teams accountable.
  • Strong commercial and operational acumen, with the ability to identify and resolve practical delivery challenges.
  • The ability to operate comfortably at both strategic and tactical levels, moving seamlessly between executive discussions and hands-on delivery.
  • A pragmatic, proactive and delivery-oriented mindset, with the resilience and drive to maintain momentum in a fast-moving and potentially ambiguous environment.
