Senior Organisation Design Manager

We are currently looking for a Senior Organisation Design Manager to support the delivery of HBK’s key transformation initiatives focused on evolving the organisation towards a clearer, more accountable and commercially effective operating model. The role will sit within the HBK People team and report directly to a senior HR leadership member, working as part of a small team supporting transformational, value-creating projects across the organisation.

The Senior Organisation Design Manager will be responsible for translating design principles into practical organisation design, governance, decision rights, accountabilities and ways of working. Working closely with senior leaders, the role will help ensure that design decisions are robust, aligned and implementable across HBK.

This role is suited to someone who can combine strong project discipline with organisation design expertise, senior stakeholder management and the ability to turn complex business questions into clear, evidence-based choices. If you are energised by transformation, comfortable working through ambiguity and able to manage delivery in a complex, fast-moving environment, this position may be for you.

Primary Responsibilities

You will take on a diverse, challenging and rewarding role at the centre of the transformation. In this role, you can expect to:

• Plan, structure and facilitate senior leader design workshops to resolve open design questions and move decisions forward.
• Translate agreed design principles into detailed organisation design options, including structures, capabilities, accountabilities, role clarity and sizing assumptions.
• Develop clear operating model artefacts, including governance structures, decision rights, interfaces, hand-offs, ways of working and escalation routes.
• Build and test organisation design scenarios and workflows to assess practicality, business impact, risks, dependencies and implementation readiness.
• Act as the interface into other transformation initiatives to ensure design decisions are aligned, coherent and do not create unintended complexity.
• Maintain disciplined delivery governance, including project plans, decision logs, risks, issues, assumptions, dependencies and action tracking.
• Partner with HR, Finance, Legal, Communications and business leaders to ensure proposed designs are commercially aligned, compliant, people-aware and capable of being implemented effectively.
• Support implementation planning, business readiness and adoption activity so that outcomes are embedded into day-to-day leadership, governance and operating routines.
