Liaison with TS is by phone/Zoom etc.

You will have:

• Experience in change management, particularly in the charity sector, supporter engagement, or digital transformation.
• A collaborative approach, bringing teams together to deliver seamless and effective change initiatives.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage, influence, and communicate effectively at all levels.
