Communications Manager

Transformation Communications Manager (FTC)

Location: London

Contract: Fixed‐term until June 2027

The Role

We’re looking for a hands‐on Transformation Communications Manager to support a major business and technology transformation programme. This is a delivery‐focused role, ideal for someone who enjoys being embedded in a fast‐moving programme environment and taking ownership of communications end‐to‐end.

You’ll play a key role in enabling the successful adoption of new enterprise systems, including a significant Oracle Fusion upgrade and Workday optimisation, working closely with change, technology and business teams. This is not a purely strategic or BAU communications role - it’s about making things happen, producing high‐quality content and ensuring messages land with the right audiences at the right time.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Delivering transformation communications to support major system and process change
• Creating clear, engaging content across multiple formats (announcements, FAQs, toolkits, intranet updates, leadership packs, etc.)
• Developing and executing communications plans for Oracle and Workday initiatives
• Segmenting audiences and tailoring messaging to different stakeholder groups
• Working closely with Change Managers to align comms with adoption and readiness activity
• Partnering with programme and subject‐matter experts to translate complex change into simple, actionable messages
• Using BAU communications channels and templates while owning transformation‐specific content

What We’re Looking For

Essential

• Proven experience delivering communications for a technology or business transformation programme
• Strong, hands‐on content creation skills
• Experience supporting system implementations or optimisations (ERP, finance or HR systems)
• A practical, delivery‐oriented mindset - comfortable rolling your sleeves up
• Strong stakeholder engagement skills and confidence working across business and technology teams
• Ability to work onsite 3 days per week in either London or Sunderland

Desirable

• Experience working on Oracle, Workday, or similar enterprise systems
• Background in head‐office or corporate systems transformation environments
