Principal Change Activation Partner

Let’s face it, a company whose mission is human transformation better have some fresh thinking about the employer/employee relationship.

We do. We can’t cram it all in here, but you’ll start noticing it from the first interview.

Even our candidate experience is different. And when you get an offer from us (and accept it), you get way more than a paycheck. You get a personal BetterUp Coach, a development plan, a trained and coached manager, the most amazing team you’ve ever met (yes, each with their own personal BetterUp Coach), and most importantly, work that matters.

This makes for a remarkably focused and fulfilling work experience. Frankly, it’s not for everyone. But for people with fire in their belly, it’s a game-changing, career-defining, soul-lifting move.

If that sounds exciting—and the job description below feels like a fit—we really should start talking.

BetterUp is building a new kind of partnership with our enterprise clients—one that drives lasting, measurable transformation. At the Principal level, you won’t just support that work: you’ll shape how it’s done across the entire Services organization and beyond.

As Principal Change Activation Partner, you will be BetterUp’s foremost expert in enterprise change strategy and activation. You’ll mobilize multiple functions, retire low-value practices, and scale AI-enabled change frameworks that define how the industry thinks about transformation. You’ll serve as a trusted advisor to executive leadership—internally and externally—and your influence will be felt company-wide.

This is a rare seat. It requires someone who has seen the movie before, knows which levers to pull, and can build the function that doesn’t yet exist—with the gravitas to earn trust at the C-suite and the hands-on craft to make it real.
