·         5+ years of change management and communications experience, preferably in manufacturing, operations, supply chain, or industrial environments.

·         Strong writing, editing, and presentation skills for diverse audiences.

·         Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, matrixed environment.

·         Must be comfortable spending significant time on the floor engaging with teams.

·         Independent, proactive, and able to work with minimal supervision.

·         Change management certification (Prosci, ACMP, or similar).

·         Experience working in automotive, logistics, or manufacturing facilities.

·         Experience developing communication toolkits or training content.

·         Knowledge of process improvement, Lean, or operational excellence.
