As Change Embedment Manager, you will help shape how change is understood, prioritised and sustained across TAL’s Group Life & Retirement Partnerships function. In a business committed to supporting people through some of life’s most challenging moments, this role brings clarity and momentum to change that strengthens how we work, partner and deliver for customers. It is an opportunity to create lasting impact by helping teams navigate complexity with confidence, building the foundations that make change more meaningful, better connected and easier to embed. For someone energised by influence, progress and purpose, this is a role where your contribution will be felt well beyond the work itself

In this role you will:

• Build a clear, consolidated view of change across the portfolio to improve visibility and coordination.
• Establish a practical change framework that enables confident prioritisation and decision-making.
• Surface operational and customer impacts early to reduce risk and strengthen readiness.
• Guide sequencing and decision pathways so change is progressed with clarity and focus.
• Strengthen stakeholder alignment to support smoother adoption and more effective change outcomes.
• Drive change into delivery by closing gaps and enabling successful implementation.

• Bring solid experience in change management, program delivery, or coordinating concurrent change across multiple workstreams, ideally in a regulated or complex environment.
• Work confidently across Agile, waterfall, or hybrid delivery environments, with a strong focus on embedding change rather than project management.
• Use tools such as Jira, Excel, and PowerPoint to track change, communicate progress, and support clear decision-making.
• Build strong relationships with stakeholders to create alignment, influence outcomes, and support successful change.
• Experience in life insurance, claims, fund administration, or digital transformation will help you make an impact more quickly in this role.
• A tertiary qualification in Business, Project Management, Change Management, or a related field is preferred.
