Summary

Platform Evaluation & Implementation Lead (Temporary Contract)

Seeking a temporary Platform Evaluation & Implementation Lead to support a knowledge management system (Insights Hub) and strengthen its generative AI and platform capabilities.

This role spans two distinct but connected phases:

  • Pre-decision platform evaluation, including structured collection of stakeholder feedback to inform leadership decisions and participation in testing and analysis activities.
  • Post-decision planning and execution, supporting implementation readiness, migration planning, testing, validation, and change management.

This is a senior, hands-on role for an experienced strategic partner who can lead through ambiguity, apply agile principles, and contribute directly to execution-not just coordinate work.

Key Responsibilities
A. Pre-Decision Platform Evaluation & Sandbox Testing
  • Support the definition and operationalization of success criteria and evaluation metrics (e.g., usability, accuracy, relevance, completeness, recency, and efficiency).
  • Support the collection, synthesis, and analysis of testing feedback and insights.
  • Prepare decision-ready summaries and recommendations for leadership and advisory stakeholders.
B. Planning & Program Management
  • Partner with Research leadership to inform overall scope, sequencing, and decision framing for the Insights Hub initiative.
  • Develop and support delivery of actionable project plans, including milestones, dependencies, and deliverables.
  • Manage the integrated schedule from evaluation through execution, keeping teams aligned and surfacing risks early.
  • Apply agile principles to adapt plans as new information, constraints, or opportunities emerge.
C. Implementation Readiness, Migration Planning, Testing & Validation (Post-Decision)
  • Support planning and coordination required to implement a selected platform or enhance the existing system.
  • Lead implementation planning and workflow design activities.
  • Support data migration planning and execution.
  • Coordinate testing, validation, and readiness checkpoints.
  • Partner with technical and business stakeholders to ensure solutions meet functional, governance, and operational requirements.
  • Translate evaluation findings into implementation priorities and execution plans.
D. Change Management & Communications
  • Create clear, audience-appropriate communications throughout both evaluation and implementation phases.
  • Develop updates, guidance materials, and decision-support documentation.
  • Provide change management support to help stakeholders understand upcoming changes, business impacts, and new processes.
  • Anticipate adoption challenges and proactively address them through communication, training, and process improvements.
Qualifications & Experience
Required
  • Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution and deliverable ownership.
  • Significant experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives involving platform evaluation, system implementation, or both.
  • Demonstrated expertise in:
    • Project management and agile delivery
    • Platform or vendor evaluation and comparison
    • Sandbox or user testing design and execution
    • Testing and validation
    • Change management and communications
    • Data migration and implementation readiness planning
  • Strong communication, analytical, and synthesis skills, including experience developing executive-ready materials.
  • Comfort operating in ambiguous environments and guiding teams from exploration to informed decision-making.
Preferred
  • Experience within research, insights, knowledge management, analytics, or data-driven environments.
  • Familiarity with enterprise governance, stakeholder decision-making processes, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Exposure to generative AI technologies, knowledge management platforms, and digital transformation initiatives.
