Role description

We're looking for an IT Change Manager to support our organization through transformation. In this role, you'll ensure that new systems, processes, and ways of working are adopted smoothly and effectively across our teams. You'll lead projects end-to-end—from planning and requirements through execution and close-out—while driving the people side of change through communication strategies, training coordination, and stakeholder engagement. You'll act as the central coordination point between leadership, technical teams, and end-users, ensuring everyone is aligned and ready for what's ahead. You'll bring 2-5 years of experience in project coordination, change support, or operations, along with a track record of supporting cross-functional projects and preparing project documentation. We're looking for someone skilled in project planning, change impact assessment, stakeholder mapping, and risk management. You'll apply project and change management frameworks to standardize our ways of working and build sustainable improvements. Strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to adapt are essential, as is proficiency in Excel and collaboration tools like MS Project, Asana, Jira, or M365. This role offers the opportunity to make a real impact by helping teams understand what's changing, why it matters, and how it affects their work. You'll strengthen organizational readiness, reduce disruption, and contribute to long-term success. If you're collaborative, solution-oriented, and passionate about guiding people through change with clarity and empathy, we'd love to hear from you. Preferred certifications include PRINCE2, PMI CAPM, Agile/Scrum Foundation, or PROSCI Change Management.

About Allan & Gill Gray Philanthropies Africa

51-200 employees

Who We Are: Our philanthropic work began in 1979 when Allan and Gill Gray set up a charitable trust to support organizations working on social and economic needs in South Africa. This was followed by the Allan Gray Orbis Foundation, founded in 2005, to attack poverty and unemployment by educating and nurturing high impact South African entrepreneurs. Its sister non-profit company, Allan & Gill Gray Philanthropy South Africa, works to strengthen the entrepreneurial ecosystem through grant making and incubation of targeted social ventures.

With the establishment of Allan & Gill Gray Foundation in 2015, the philanthropic activities pursued under the banner of Allan & Gill Gray Philanthropies now have global reach

Our Mission: We provide targeted support for organisations working towards human dignity, equitable opportunity, and the public good. Our approach in assessing the purposeful leadership and long-term thinking of possible grantees and partners is consistent with what we have learned from the investment management businesses, coupled with an appreciation for the human and personal nature of the work and its impact.
