Businesses going through a major transition may look to hire a change management consultant to support the process. These experienced consulting professionals have the knowledge and expertise to assist with operations such as assessment, planning, restructuring and communication. They typically work alongside an HR team or project manager.
As change management consultants are usually recruited for a specific purpose, opportunities tend to be on a contract basis. This role is served by a range of recruitment agencies, including those that specialise in finding talent for consulting jobs. Employers may also choose to contact recruiters that solely focus on their industry.
