The Role

Your Role

As a Change Manager, you will play a critical role in ensuring that IT changes are planned, assessed, approved, and implemented with minimal risk to business operations. You will be responsible for governing the end-to-end Change Management process, driving adherence to ITIL best practices, and ensuring operational stability across complex enterprise environments.

This role requires a strong balance of process governance, stakeholder management, risk assessment, and operational leadership. You will work closely with technical teams, service delivery managers, customers, and business stakeholders to coordinate change activities, facilitate change advisory boards (CAB), manage change risks, and drive continuous improvement initiatives that strengthen service reliability and compliance.

What you will do

• Govern and manage the end-to-end IT Change Management process, ensuring compliance with ITIL standards, customer requirements, and operational policies.
• Review, assess, and approve change requests by evaluating business impact, technical risk, implementation plans, and rollback strategies.
• Lead Change Advisory Board (CAB) meetings, facilitating discussions and securing appropriate approvals for planned changes.
• Coordinate with application, infrastructure, network, security, and delivery teams to ensure successful planning and execution of changes.
• Monitor change performance metrics, success rates, failed changes, and compliance trends, driving corrective actions and service improvements.
• Manage high-risk and major changes, ensuring appropriate stakeholder communication, risk mitigation, and executive visibility where required.
• Maintain accurate change records, governance documentation, audit evidence, and reporting to support compliance and operational excellence.
• Identify opportunities to improve change processes, automation, governance controls, and stakeholder engagement to enhance service stability and efficiency.
