Job summary

Unilever invites applications for an Organisation Design Lead to drive major organisation design programmes and its AI-enabled capability. You will translate judgement into guardrails, diagnostics, and self-serve tools, supporting leaders and journey teams in complex restructures.

You will collaborate with data experts, ensure governance of agent workflows, and help scale organisation design practices across People teams with a strong emphasis on pace and quality.

Qualifications

• Deep expertise in organisation design and operating model design, including roles, spans and layers, decision rights, governance, cost and implementation risk.
• Strong artificial intelligence and product mindset — able to translate organisation design judgement into guardrails, prompts, agent workflows, diagnostics and intuitive self-serve tools.
• Experience supporting major restructures and senior leader decision-making in complex, matrixed organisations.
• Ability to use organisation data and analytics to interpret health, structural options, workforce implications and design risk.
• Strong facilitation and stakeholder influence, with judgement to identify trade-offs, guardrail breaches and escalation points.

Responsibilities

• Drive the global organisation design approach — principles, methods, guardrails and quality standards for routine and complex design decisions.
• Develop artificial intelligence-enabled self-serve organisation design tools and agent workflows, translating organisation design expertise into prompts, diagnostics, option-generation logic and escalation rules.
• Enable leaders, People Business Partners and journey teams to use organisation design tools for routine changes, while providing expert support for complex restructures and precedent-setting choices.
• Apply organisation analytics — spans, layers, role clarity, cost, capability and workforce impact — to stress-test options and surface risks.
• Maintain human-in-the-loop governance for organisation design agents, reviewing guardrail breaches and feeding learnings into tools, methodology and precedent library.
• Partner with data experts so workforce scenarios and trusted data flow into organisation design choices and approved changes feed back to plans and systems of record.
• Build organisation design capability across People teams and practitioners so major programmes are delivered consistently, at pace and with strong consultation discipline.
