Details

Deliver great change across the ecosystem to protect services, reduce risk, and maximise stakeholder value.

The Change Enablement Specialist sits at the heart of [Employer hidden — view at passion-project.co.uk]’s Operational Services organisation, playing a key role in managing the delivery of Change Enablement services by the supplier ecosystem to achieve agreed business outcomes and performance targets set by EE/BT, Three and the [Employer hidden] AOP (Annual Operating Plan).

You will assist and proactively manage service availability, risk and impact of all changes implemented across the [Employer hidden] estate against contractual obligations and industry benchmarks.

Why this role matters:

This role makes sure change strengthens the network — not disrupts it. At [Employer hidden], it keeps suppliers aligned, risk controlled, and services stable for our shareholders.

Bottom line: smart governance, zero surprises, maximum value. This is a hybrid role with a minimum of 2 days per week in our Central Reading office.

What you’ll be here to do:

The Change Enablement Specialist ensures that all network changes are delivered safely, efficiently, and with minimal impact, protecting service performance and supporting [Employer hidden]’s operational excellence.

  • Manage and coordinate network change activities to ensure minimal service disruption and controlled delivery.
  • Oversee emergency change requests, ensuring appropriate justification, governance, and timely response.
  • Monitor network availability, outages, and permits to protect service performance and minimise operational risk.
  • Analyse change and performance trends to identify improvements across suppliers and operational processes.
  • Support governance forums and operational reviews, including change boards and availability meetings.
  • Conduct risk and impact assessments to ensure safe implementation of network activities.
  • Ensure compliance with operational controls such as site access, permits, and network handover processes.

Who we’re looking for:

We’re looking for a hands-on Change Enablement pro who can drive safe, seamless network changes and get the best from suppliers and teams.

  • ITIL Foundation V3/4 or equivalent experience.
  • Change management and Availability management experience.
  • Confident communicator with excellent organisational skill.
  • Strong knowledge of the methodologies, processes and capabilities required to deliver best in class technical and business services.
  • Experience of managing, motivating, monitoring and improving performance of contractors and suppliers.

If you also have the following, we’re especially interested in talking to you:

  • Experience of collaboratively working with remotely located, cross-functional teams.
  • Safety/quality/compliance knowledge of mobile or fixed network technologies.
  • Experience of BMC Remedy.
  • Experience of working in or with a JV organisation.

If you love turning complex change into smooth delivery, inspiring teams, and protecting service performance, then this role will give you real impact and career growth.”
