Senior Manager, Transformation Communications
Financial Services | High-Visibility, Portfolio-Wide Remit
6 month contract | Outside IR35 | up to £800/day
Our client, a global player in fund and asset servicing, is undertaking significant organisational transformation – and needs a senior communications specialist to lead the narrative across it.
This isn’t an execution-only role. You’ll partner directly with Transformation and programme leadership to own and shape communications across a live, multi-programme transformation portfolio – translating complex, sometimes sensitive change into clear, compelling communications for both colleagues and clients.
What you’ll be doing
- Defining and leading the communications strategy across the transformation portfolio, ensuring one coherent narrative across all programmes and audiences
- Owning end-to-end internal and external communications for major change initiatives from day one
- Building senior stakeholder relationships across the business – acting as a trusted advisor, not just a comms resource
- Leading enterprise-wide messaging that connects individual programmes to the bigger strategic picture
- Producing comms plans, messaging frameworks, stakeholder maps and client-facing materials across a range of formats and channels
What you’ll bring
- A strong track record in senior communications roles within complex, matrixed or professional services environments
- Multiple cycles of end-to-end transformation communications delivery – this is not a first-time exposure role
- Direct experience communicating difficult people change: restructures, redundancies, role changes – handled with sensitivity and confidence
- Exceptional writing skills, with the versatility to flex tone and format for different audiences
- The gravitas to challenge and advise stakeholders at ExCo level
- Comfort working across multiple complex workstreams in a fast-moving environment
This is a rare opportunity to shape the communications strategy behind a major transformation agenda, with genuine influence at the top table – not just a seat in the room.
