Job Details
Talent, Culture & Workforce Experience (TCWX) is changing how Cencora team members learn, grow and move across the enterprise. As Senior Manager TCWX Activation, Engagement & Change Management, you'll make sure that work reaches team members and gets used. You'll support change and adoption for major learning and talent technology transitions, and you'll project manage the cross-functional work behind them. You'll also bring TCWX priorities, programs and news to team members and leaders across Cencora.
This is a high-visibility individual contributor role for a strong program and change leader. You should be well organized, comfortable with ambiguity and good at moving work forward in a complex, multi-layered enterprise. You'll switch between priorities often, find the right people to get things done and turn moving pieces into clear, coordinated execution.
Responsibilities
Change Management & Adoption
- Lead change management strategy and execution for major learning and talent technology transitions, from readiness through adoption and sustainment.
- Run stakeholder impact assessments, readiness plans, leader and HRBP enablement, and feedback loops so transitions land smoothly.
- Spot resistance and adoption barriers early, and work with partners to resolve them.
Program & Project Leadership
- Build and manage integrated project plans, timelines and dependencies across multiple TCWX initiatives at the same time.
- Own the TCWX Evolving Events Calendar and message sequencing, so launches are coordinated, well timed and don't overwhelm audiences.
- Flag risks, dependencies and decisions early, and give leaders a clear view of progress.
TCWX Activation & Engagement
- Turn TCWX priorities, programs and offerings into simple, compelling messages for team members, people leaders and HR partners.
- Build activation kits and toolkits (key messages, talking points, timelines, promotion guidance) that partners can use.
- Support TCWX-owned channels and networks, including HRBP communities, ERGs and listservs, and follow up with people who have engaged with TCWX offerings.
- Partner with Communications & Marketing to activate TCWX priorities through enterprise channels.
Enterprise Navigation & Stakeholder Influence
- Act as a connective thread across TCWX & relevant enterprise teams so that priorities, messages and timing stay consistent.
- Build trusted relationships with senior leaders, HRBPs, functional partners and project teams. Influence without authority and keep work moving where ownership is unclear.
- Read stakeholder dynamics and organizational context to find the right path, the right people and the right timing to execute at scale.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in human resources, business, organizational development, communications or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- 8+ years of experience in project or program management, change management, HR or Talent business partnering, enterprise operations, learning and development, or a related field.
- Proven experience leading change and adoption for enterprise-wide technology or operating model transitions.
- Strong project management skills, with experience running multiple concurrent initiatives in a large, matrixed organization.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to make complex topics clear for different audiences.
- Demonstrated ability to influence senior stakeholders and get results without direct authority.
Preferred Qualifications
- Change management (e.g., Prosci) or project management (e.g., PMP) certification.
- Experience supporting learning platform, talent marketplace or HR technology implementations.
- Experience working across executive, HR and business teams in a fast-paced, enterprise-level environment.

Tips for Your Talent Engagement Specialist Job Search
Tailor your resume to candidate experience metrics
Talent engagement roles prioritize outcomes like candidate satisfaction scores, time-to-fill reductions, and pipeline conversion rates. Pull those numbers from your past work and position them prominently, because hiring managers in this field read resumes the same way they evaluate candidate journeys.
Distinguish engagement from sourcing on your resume
Many applicants blur talent engagement with talent sourcing. Engagement focuses on nurturing relationships after initial contact, so highlight touchpoints you owned, like nurture campaigns, re-engagement of silver-medal candidates, or event follow-up sequences, rather than cold outreach volume.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists talent engagement specialist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter openings by the ATS they mention
Job postings for talent engagement specialists often name the applicant tracking system the team uses. Applying to roles built around tools you already know, whether a CRM-style ATS or a marketing automation platform, positions you to contribute faster and signals cultural fit in the interview.
Prepare a candidate experience walkthrough for interviews
Interviewers in this field frequently ask you to walk through a candidate journey you designed or improved. Have one specific example ready that covers the touchpoints, the problem you solved, and what changed afterward so you can answer fluently without reconstructing it on the spot.
Negotiate by scoping your candidate pool size
When discussing compensation, tie your ask to the complexity of the talent segments you will manage. A role covering high-volume hourly hiring requires different bandwidth than one focused on passive professional candidates, and framing that difference gives you a concrete basis for negotiating salary or title.
