Role Summary

FCM Meetings & Events is embarking on one of the most ambitious global standardisation programmes in its history — the M&E Single Operating Model (SOM). This is a 2-year, multi-market transformation programme rolling out an integrated technology and process stack across our global business. We are looking for a Global Change Manager to own E2E change strategy and delivery for the programme. Our change philosophy is leader-led — this role is the enabler behind the scenes, equipping and empowering local leaders to lead change visibly within their teams. You will own the global change framework and orchestrate a relay model of global framework → regional nuance → local delivery, working alongside local comms, marketing, L&D and process resources. Your first major deliverable is a turnkey enablement package that sets every market deployment up for success, regardless of deployment mode. From there, you'll lead change delivery market by market through to FY28.

What You'll Do

Global Change Strategy & Framework

  • Own the end-to-end change strategy for M&E SOM, aligned to the FCTG Change Framework and the Ready, Willing, Able model.
  • Build on existing FCTG change IP (frameworks, Prod Ops learnings, digitalised change assets) — leveraging what exists rather than reinventing.
  • Define the relay operating model: global framework, regional nuance, local delivery — and orchestrate the resources required to make it work.
  • Flex change approach by deployment mode (standalone, retrofit, full-stack integrated) and regional culture — recognising that one size will not fit all.
  • Anticipate and plan for the programme's growing scope as further Global Operating Model workstreams come online.

Leader-Led Change Enablement

  • Operate as the enabler behind the scenes — equipping market and regional leaders to be the visible face of change to their people.
  • Invest early in leader confidence and capability, building the leadership scaffolding before each market enters its delivery window.
  • Coach M&E leaders on how to lead change visibly within their teams — embedding the behavioural and cultural shifts the new operating model requires.
  • Identify and develop local change champions in each market to extend leader reach and feed sentiment back into the programme.

Stakeholder Engagement & Communications

  • Partner with M&E Global GM, regional GMs, market leadership and the central M&E SOM programme team to build sustained, two-way engagement throughout the change lifecycle.
  • Develop programme-level communications strategy and frameworks; partner with local comms, marketing and brand resources to land market-specific assets that resonate.
  • Identify and manage resistance proactively, surfacing sentiment and concerns through structured listening, sentiment monitoring and stakeholder feedback loops.
  • Represent change interests in working group cadence, Steerco and cross-functional forums.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Readiness, Adoption & Sustainment

  • Assess change readiness in each market ahead of go-live using the Ready, Willing, Able framework — flag, escalate and address gaps before they become go-live risks.
  • Measure business readiness vs. activity — building in indicators that show whether people are genuinely prepared rather than simply informed (readiness self-assessments, pulse surveys, sentiment feedback from local change champions).
  • Define and track adoption metrics, sentiment indicators and behavioural success measures across the programme.
  • Support hypercare and post-go-live sustainment activities — ensuring change is embedded, not just delivered.
  • Apply lessons learned from each market to strengthen the future change approach

Training & Capability Building

  • Partner with L&D resources (global and local) to design and coordinate training that supports adoption of the new technology, processes and ways of working.
  • Coordinate with Deployment to align training delivery to market sequencing and go-live windows.
  • Build a sustainable capability uplift approach so adoption continues post go-live and isn't dependent on intensive change support to sustain.
  • Connect M&E SOM training assets into the wider FCTG learning ecosystem as needed.

Deployment-in-a-Box Toolkit

  • Lead the design and delivery of the M&E SOM "deployment-in-a-box" change toolkit as a flagship early-phase deliverable — a turnkey enablement package that any deployment (M&E-led, Deployment-led, or MBO-led) can pick up and execute against.
  • Build out the foundation layer: change architecture, learning ecosystem, communications toolkit, product stewardship, and deployment readiness assets.
  • Ensure the toolkit blueprint flexes for AU's Procim transition (purpose-built scaffolding) and Asia's market-specific nuance and 'why'.
  • Govern toolkit maintenance and continuous improvement as the programme progresses and market lessons feed back in.

Change Impact & Readiness Assessment

  • Conduct change impact assessments across all in-scope markets — completed at programme level early on, then refined at market level ahead of each deployment.
  • Build and maintain stakeholder matrices, sentiment trackers, readiness indicators and resistance maps across the programme.
  • Use assessment outputs to shape leader enablement, communications and training plans — and to inform delivery sequencing decisions where relevant.

Communications & Engagement Delivery

  • Develop programme-level communications frameworks — message frameworks by audience and market archetype, launch playbooks, FAQ and objection-handling scripts for leaders.
  • Partner with local comms, marketing and brand resources to bring market-specific assets to life — global framework, local voice.
  • Manage two-way engagement: feedback loops, sentiment capture, listening forums — ensuring resistance and concerns surface early and are addressed at the right level.

Training Coordination

  • Partner with L&D to define training needs and design learning solutions appropriate to each user group, deployment mode and market.
  • Coordinate training delivery against deployment sequencing — making sure markets are trained at the right point in their go-live journey.
  • Capture training effectiveness and adoption feedback, feeding it back into continuous improvement of the toolkit and approach.

Reporting, Coaching & Community Contribution

  • Manage the input, collation and output of change management reporting across the programme — giving leadership clear visibility of readiness, sentiment, adoption and risk.
  • Coach M&E leaders and delivery team members on change practice, building organisational change capability that outlasts the programme.
  • Collaborate actively within the FCTG Change Community of Practice — sharing tools, lessons learned, and contributing to the digitalisation of change IP across the global change function.

What We're Looking For

  • Right attitude, right aptitude, FCTG knowledge — that's the brief. Deep knowledge of M&E or wider FCTG is genuinely more valuable to us here than a polished change CV.
  • Strong familiarity with how M&E or FCTG operates — internal stakeholders, structure, ways of working, brand and culture — essential.
  • Demonstrated experience contributing to or leading change activity on technology or transformation projects (within FCTG or comparable global business) beneficial.
  • Working understanding of structured change methodology and frameworks (FCTG Change Framework / Ready, Willing, Able preferred; Prosci, ADKAR or equivalent welcomed).
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills — able to build trust and influence across seniority levels and regional cultures without formal authority.
  • Strong communication craft — clear writer, able to design engaging communications assets, and adapt tone to different audiences.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, lean, entrepreneurial environment where change activity needs to land at the pace of delivery.
  • Curiosity, adaptability, and willingness to step boldly into new spaces.
  • Experience working across multiple time zones and regional cultures advantageous.
  • Travel, events or hospitality sector experience welcome but not essential.
  • Tertiary qualification or certification in Organisational Change Management, Project Management, Marketing, Communications or a related discipline desirable but not essential.
  • Prosci, ADKAR, APMG Change Management or equivalent change certification beneficial.
  • Familiarity with the FCTG Change Framework is a significant advantage.
