As a Senior Principal in Transformation Management at Slalom, you will provide executive-level leadership for complex, enterprise-scale transformations, primarily serving Financial Services clients across our Canadian portfolio, with opportunities to work across other industries. You will shape transformation strategy, mobilize integrated teams, and guide sustained execution across people, process, and technology, while helping grow the market impact and maturity of Slalom’s Transformation Design & Leadership (TDL) practice in Canada.

You will serve as a senior advisor to client executives and Slalom leaders, connecting strategic ambition to practical delivery. You will oversee multifaceted transformation journeys, establish the governance and leadership conditions required for success, and ensure Cloud- and AI-enabled investments translate into measurable business outcomes.

Working across Transformation Architects, Cloud and AI technologists, change leaders, account teams, and client executives, you will bring the judgement, commercial perspective, and delivery discipline required to lead high-stakes transformation portfolios in complex and regulated environments.

What You’ll Do

Advise Executives and Shape Transformation Portfolios

• Partner with C-suite executives, transformation sponsors, and account leaders to frame enterprise transformation priorities, investment choices, and measurable outcomes.
• Shape multi-year transformation portfolios that translate Cloud, Data, and AI disruption into sequenced, executable initiatives across people, process, technology, and operating model change.
• Guide clients through critical decisions involving value, risk, pace, organizational capacity, and adoption, bringing an independent and pragmatic point of view.
• Create alignment across senior stakeholders by establishing a clear transformation narrative, decision architecture, success measures, and executive governance model.

Lead Complex, Enterprise-Scale Transformations

• Act as the senior Transformation Delivery Partner and trusted advisor accountable for the health, direction, and outcomes of large, multi-workstream programs.
• Lead complex transformations spanning technical program design, Cloud, Data and AI enablement, operating model evolution, organizational readiness, learning, change, and adoption.
• Mobilize and oversee integrated Slalom and client teams, clarifying accountabilities, resolving cross-program dependencies, and maintaining momentum through ambiguity and disruption.
• Ensure initiatives progress from strategy and experimentation to enterprise-scale implementation, adoption, and value realization with transparent milestones, risks, and outcomes.
• Advise on the operationalization of AI Offices, Cloud Centres of Excellence (CCoEs), portfolio governance, and transformation management structures.

Provide Executive Governance and Value Leadership

• Establish fit-for-purpose governance, executive forums, delivery cadences, escalation paths, and portfolio-level controls that support timely decisions and accountable execution.
• Translate complex delivery signals, risks, dependencies, and trade-offs into clear executive insights and recommendations.
• Champion measurable value realization by connecting transformation outcomes to business priorities, adoption measures, operating performance, and investment decisions.
• Anticipate systemic risks across architecture, platforms, workforce, vendors, and business change, and lead coordinated intervention before those risks affect outcomes.

Grow Client Relationships and Market Impact

• Build trusted relationships with senior client leaders and identify opportunities to extend Slalom’s impact based on observed business needs and transformation priorities.
• Partner with market, account, and capability leaders to shape pursuits, qualify opportunities, develop compelling transformation propositions, and lead executive-level presentations.
• Contribute to account growth through strong delivery, commercial judgement, and the ability to connect Slalom capabilities into integrated client solutions.
• Represent Slalom’s transformation perspective in client forums, industry conversations, and market-facing thought leadership.

Build Slalom’s Transformation Capability

• Help define and evolve Slalom’s Transformation Management offerings, methods, playbooks, accelerators, and points of view, particularly for Cloud- and AI-enabled change.
• Provide visible leadership across TDL and adjacent capabilities, strengthening collaboration among transformation, technology, product, data, and organizational change teams.
• Mentor and sponsor Principals, consultants, and emerging leaders, building confidence in executive advisory, transformation execution, and commercial leadership.
• Contribute to workforce planning, talent development, quality oversight, and the continued growth of the Transformation Management community in Canada.

What You’ll Bring

• 12+ years of experience in consulting, transformation leadership, or enterprise program leadership, including significant accountability for complex business and technology transformations.
• A sustained record of advising senior executives and leading enterprise-scale, multi-capability programs from strategy and mobilization through implementation, adoption, and value realization.
• Proven experience with Cloud- and AI-enabled transformation, including governance, operating model change, organizational readiness, workforce enablement, and responsible enterprise adoption.
• Strong working fluency in Cloud, Data, AI, platform, product, and modern delivery concepts, enabling you to challenge assumptions and guide integrated teams without acting as the solution architect.
• Demonstrated strength in executive governance, portfolio leadership, transformation architecture, program recovery, dependency management, and decision facilitation.
• Commercial acumen and experience shaping opportunities, supporting sales pursuits, scoping work, developing proposals, and expanding trusted client relationships.
• Experience leading in complex or regulated enterprise environments, with an appreciation for risk, controls, security, compliance, and organizational constraints.
• Exceptional executive communication and storytelling skills, including the ability to distil complex delivery realities into clear decisions, actions, and outcomes.
• A leadership style grounded in collaboration, inclusion, coaching, sound judgement, and the ability to influence across organizational boundaries.
• French proficiency is considered an asset.
