We are seeking an experienced Organizational Change Management (OCM) and Training Lead to support a large-scale manufacturing transformation program.

The primary focus of this role will be managing the people side of transformation, including stakeholder engagement, communications, business readiness, role-based training, knowledge capture, and adoption measurement.
The successful candidate will support manufacturing personnel working across multiple shifts and sites and will play a critical role in ensuring successful adoption of new business processes and SAP technologies.
Key Responsibilities
  • Own and lead the overall change management and training strategy across multiple workstreams, plants, and business functions.
  • Conduct change impact assessments by role, business division, and plant location.
  • Identify how new processes and systems will impact operators, inspectors, planners, warehouse personnel, maintenance technicians, controllers, and other end users.
  • Develop and execute stakeholder engagement and communication plans for executives, plant management, supervisors, and shop-floor employees.
  • Design and deliver role-based training programs, including:
    • Training curriculum

  • Define role-based adoption metrics and monitor adoption throughout hypercare.
  • Drive corrective actions where adoption data indicates that new processes or systems are not being effectively adopted.
  • Support the transition away from legacy tools and address workaround behaviors.

Batch Management & Traceability Experience - Preferred

This is primarily a change management and training role; however, understanding lot and batch processes will help the candidate develop more effective training and adoption strategies.
Required Qualifications
  • 8+ years of experience in Organizational Change Management and end-user training for enterprise system implementations.
  • Experience supporting at least 3 full-lifecycle ERP implementations, including at least 1 SAP implementation.
  • Demonstrated experience delivering change management and training to manufacturing shop-floor populations, including operators, inspectors, and technicians.

  • Experience defining and measuring adoption metrics beyond training completion rates.
  • Experience establishing and supporting sustainable super-user/key-user networks.
  • Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.
  • Ability to effectively communicate with both executive stakeholders and shop-floor employees.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Business-level bilingual proficiency in English and Japanese.
  • Previous experience supporting change management initiatives in Japan or with Japanese manufacturing organizations.

  • Experience supporting the retirement of legacy tools and addressing user workaround behaviors.
  • Familiarity with SAP Digital Manufacturing, operator dashboards, SAP Fiori, and handheld terminal interfaces.
  • Experience with digital adoption platforms, in-application guidance tools, or SAP Enable Now.
  • Formal change management certification such as Prosci or equivalent.

Preferred knowledge includes:
  • Lot creation, splitting, merging, and identification processes.
  • Transitioning lot and batch processes from paper and legacy tools into SAP.
  • Batch status management and quality usage decisions.
