In Group Functions at Flutter, our purpose is to bring the benefit of our combined global scale to empower Flutter’s brands to win in their respective markets. Achieving our purpose involves significant change and transformation. Success for us is more than the delivery of a new technical solution, which could be a new process, new tools and technologies or all of these things – it’s also about preparing people to adopt and embrace change, creating a better experience for those people impacted.

Reporting to the Head of Change, your role will be to lead and deliver the business change activities required to ensure the successful implementation and adoption of the change on a range of  initiatives. You will partner with the Programme team and impacted stakeholders at every level of the organisation, ensuring that you are building the right change management activities at the right time, working in partnership to deliver successful change and transformation.

This role requires a creative, adaptive thinker with the ability to exert influence without authority. You’ll be comfortable working in a fast paced environment, able to demonstrate initiative, look at alternatives and consider practical ways to solve problems.
