Senior Consultant, Change Enablement
Culture & Experience | Monash Health
Lead the leaders who shape healthcare.
At Monash Health, we believe leadership matters. Not leadership in theory, but applied leadership in practice.
We're seeking an experienced and courageous Senior Consultant, Change Enablement to work directly with leaders and managers across one of Australia's largest health services, helping them navigate complexity, lead confidently through change and build the judgement required to tackle difficult challenges before they escalate.
This is not a traditional leadership development role.
You won't spend your days delivering generic training programs or facilitating workshops disconnected from reality. Instead, you'll work alongside leaders facing real organisational challenges, supporting them to think differently, act decisively and build the capability to lead their people through complexity, ambiguity and change.
About the role
Reporting to the Director of Culture and Experience, you will partner with leaders across clinical, operational and corporate environments to strengthen leadership accountability, organisational effectiveness and change capability.
You'll support leaders facing complex and high-stakes challenges, helping them:
Build confidence to navigate complex people and team issues
Exercise leadership judgement instead of relying on escalation or process
Lead teams through organisational change and uncertainty with clarity and confidence
Create accountability, trust and performance within their teams
Strengthen ways of working, role clarity and organisational effectiveness
Develop the capability to solve future challenges independently rather than creating ongoing reliance on support functions.
Coach and advise leaders on complex leadership challenges and sensitive stakeholder situations
Design and deliver targeted leadership interventions at team, service and organisational levels
Facilitate leadership team discussions, diagnostics and team effectiveness reviews
Lead organisational health, culture and climate assessments
Help leaders navigate restructuring, workforce challenges and changing operating environments
Translate organisational insights into practical leadership solutions and capability-building initiatives
Build tools, frameworks and resources that support leaders to make effective decisions in real time
Partner closely with HR Business Partners, Employee Relations, Safety and Wellbeing and broader People & Culture teams to ensure leaders receive the right support at the right time.
About you
You are an experienced organisational development, organisational effectiveness, leadership or change professional who is known for your credibility, insight and ability to influence senior leaders.
You'll bring:
Significant experience in organisational development, organisational effectiveness, leadership capability, change or a related field
Strong coaching, consulting and facilitation skills
Experience working with senior leaders on complex organisational and people challenges
A strong understanding of organisation design, operating models, culture and change enablement
The ability to diagnose issues beneath the surface and identify the interventions that will create meaningful impact
Outstanding stakeholder engagement and relationship-building skills
The confidence to challenge constructively and hold leaders accountable where required
Excellent written and communication skills.
What makes someone successful in this role?
You'll thrive if you are:
Pragmatic and solutions-focused
Curious and diagnostically rigorous
Courageous enough to have challenging conversations
Systems-minded and able to see the broader organisational context
Coaching-oriented and passionate about building capability
Comfortable working in ambiguity and complexity
Collaborative, adaptable and committed to helping leaders succeed.
Why join us?
This is a unique opportunity to shape leadership capability at scale within one of Australia's largest and most respected health services.
You'll have the chance to influence how leaders think, lead and create impact across an organisation navigating significant transformation, while working with a highly regarded Organisational Development team committed to building a strong, capable and future-focused workforce.
