• Assess change readiness and adoption risk by conducting impact assessments, gathering field feedback, and identifying potential resistance early — developing mitigation strategies to support seamless transition

• Coordinate and drive capability uplift planning - ensuring skills and knowledge needed to adopt new ways of working are delivered through aligned learning journeys, train-the-trainer sessions, and reinforcement touchpoints

• Plan and manage activation cadences - overseeing end-to-end execution of teaser phases, launch milestones, reinforcement loops, and re-engagement campaigns across key communication channels

• Track field sentiment and behavioral adoption using pulse checks, campaign analytics, and engagement metrics - feeding insights back into messaging refinement, reinforcement needs, and rollout improvement

• Collaborate on external storytelling by coordinating with Brand or Corporate Comms to amplify initiatives via social media, external platforms or recruitment positioning campaigns where needed

Qualifications & Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree in business, Technology, or equivalent field

• 8-12 years of experience in communications, campaign strategy, or field enablement - ideally within insurance, distribution-led businesses, or agency networks

• Proven experience leading large-scale, multi-stakeholder campaign execution across internal and external channels

• Skilled in content creation across multiple formats - digital, live, and visual (e.g. EDMs, playbooks, scripts, videos, guides)

• Familiarity with field segmentation and the dynamics of rolling out initiatives to frontline sales teams

• Comfortable managing multiple rollouts and priorities across markets and clusters

Key Skills & Traits:

• Exceptional storytelling and campaign planning ability

• Detail-oriented and deadline-driven - thrives in fast-paced launch environments
