At Monash Health, we believe leadership matters. Not leadership in theory, but applied leadership in practice.

We're seeking an experienced and courageous Senior Consultant, Change Enablement to work directly with leaders and managers across one of Australia's largest health services, helping them navigate complexity, lead confidently through change and build the judgement required to tackle difficult challenges before they escape.

You won't spend your days delivering generic training programs or facilitating workshops disconnected from reality. Instead, you'll work alongside leaders facing real organisational challenges, supporting them to think differently, act decisively and build the capability to lead their people through complexity, ambiguity and change.
