As an Organisational Effectiveness Senior Manager, you'll work with Executive Directors, HR Directors and senior business leaders to define and deliver the most strategically important organisational priorities.

You’ll play a critical role in designing how the organisation is structured and operates, and ensuring it is set up to deliver business strategy, improve organisational health, and unlock sustainable performance. From operating model redesign to large-scale transformation, your work will directly influence how teams collaborate, make decisions, and deliver outcomes across the Group.
