Organisational Change & Capability Partner

Arriva Hungary | Budapest | People & Culture – People Excellence
 

Help turn business priorities into meaningful change and stronger organisational capabilities.
 

At Arriva, we keep cities moving. Behind every reliable journey are people, leaders and teams whose capabilities, collaboration and ability to adapt make a real difference.

As we transform our operating model, introduce new technologies and develop the way we work, we are strengthening our People Excellence team.

We are looking for an Organisational Change & Capability Partner who enjoys understanding how organisations work, designing practical people solutions and turning good ideas into measurable improvements.

This is a hands-on specialist role with real ownership. You won't simply coordinate training or support projects from the sidelines. You will design and deliver your own change and development initiatives, while building your expertise within a collaborative People & Culture team.

Enable organisational change
 

• Design and deliver change management interventions that help people successfully adopt new ways of working, processes, roles and digital solutions.
• Assess change impacts, readiness and barriers to adoption, and translate your findings into practical action plans.
• Develop and facilitate workshops, leader enablement activities and employee engagement interventions.
• Measure adoption and identify what is needed to make change sustainable.

Build organisational and leadership capabilities
 

• Translate identified business needs into targeted capability development solutions.
• Assess capability gaps and design programmes that strengthen leadership, professional skills and organisational effectiveness.
• Develop and deliver leadership development, talent and succession-related initiatives.
• Create practical learning experiences, facilitate workshops and evaluate their impact.

Own the professional solution
 

• Develop and continuously improve the frameworks, tools and methodologies used within your assigned area of expertise.
• Take ownership of your programmes from diagnosis and solution design through delivery and evaluation.
• Work closely with our People Business Partners, who identify and bring forward business needs, and with operational leaders to ensure solutions are relevant and effective.
• Use feedback, data and practical experience to improve the quality and impact of your work.

We value capability, initiative and learning potential as much as experience.
 

• Around 2–3 years of relevant experience in organisational development, change management, learning and development, leadership development or a related field.
• Experience independently designing and delivering at least some development initiatives, workshops or change-related activities.
• Strong analytical and structured thinking, with the ability to turn a problem into a practical solution.
• Confidence in facilitating discussions, engaging stakeholders and working with different groups of people.
• A proactive, hands-on approach and a genuine sense of ownership.
• Curiosity about how people, teams and organisations learn, adapt and perform.
• Good working knowledge of Hungarian and English.

Experience in an operationally intensive environment, such as transport, logistics or manufacturing, would be an advantage. Familiarity with change management methodologies or facilitation techniques is welcome, but formal certifications are not required.

You don't need to be an expert in every area. What matters is that you have a solid foundation, can independently deliver meaningful work and are motivated to develop your professional expertise further.

Why Arriva?
 

At Arriva, change is tangible. It influences how we lead teams, introduce technology, develop professional capabilities and deliver safe, reliable services to our passengers.

You'll have the opportunity to:
 

• Take real ownership of change and capability development initiatives.
• Build and shape professional solutions, not just implement predefined programmes.
• Work closely with business leaders and see the practical impact of your work.
• Develop your expertise within a growing People Excellence function.
• Contribute to the transformation of an essential public transport business and be part of an international organisation.

We believe successful transformation is not measured by what gets launched, but by what people actually do differently.
 

If you enjoy making change work in practice and helping people and organisations grow, we'd like to hear from you.
 

Join Arriva. Moving forward together.
