Position Responsibilities

Deltek is seeking an experienced Senior Adoption & Enablement Specialist to own and drive change management, adoption, and enablement for the Enterprise Data & Intelligence (EDI) organization across Deltek. This role ensures the data and analytics capabilities EDI delivers, with an increasing focus on AI-ready data, are understood, correctly used, and fully adopted by the business. It is given a broad mandate rather than a defined task list: as the pace of data transformation accelerates and demand grows across EDI's scope, the Senior Adoption & Enablement Specialist independently determines what change management and enablement the business needs, builds it, and drives adoption to completion.

The ideal candidate brings strong self-direction, business acumen, and the ability to move stakeholders through influence rather than authority. This role partners closely with EDI's Business Engagement Partners, Data Quality Operations, and Portfolio Operations to ensure enablement keeps pace with what EDI delivers and how work moves through the organization.

Aligned to Deltek's 2026 vision and AI-first ambition, this role ensures EDI's investment in AI-ready data translates into real, confident adoption across the enterprise.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own how the business becomes aware of, understands, and adopts EDI's data and analytics capabilities. Determine what enablement is needed to help business users correctly request, interpret, and consume data, heavily centered on AI-ready data, then design and deliver the training, guidance, and communication to meet it, so growing demand is served consistently and at scale.
• Strengthen data communication across Deltek, translating EDI's standards, processes, and capabilities into clear, business-usable guidance tailored to a variety of channels and audiences, from individual contributors to senior leaders. Showcase EDI updates and success stories via our Deltek SharePoint Page and in All Hands calls.
• Build and maintain the enablement materials, job aids, and self-service resources that allow business users to engage EDI and consume AI-ready data independently and correctly, reducing reliance on one-to-one support as demand scales.
• Own the adoption feedback loop end to end: gather where enablement is and isn't landing, and iterate training, support, and communication in response so adoption improves continuously rather than being published once and assumed.
• Partner with Business Engagement Partners, Data Quality Operations, and Portfolio Operations to align enablement with what EDI is delivering and how work flows through the organization, reinforcing consistent operating rhythms and accountability.
• Accountable for adoption outcomes. Partner with Data Quality Operations to establish and interpret meaningful measures of awareness and adoption, using them to direct where enablement effort goes next, without owning metrics definition or reporting development directly.

Key Achievements:

• Drove measurable adoption of EDI's data and analytics capabilities across the business, with a focus on AI-ready data.

• Formalized enablement, training, and communication so growing demand is served consistently and at scale rather than one request at a time.

• Strengthened business understanding and confident, correct use of enterprise data.

• Reduced reliance on one-to-one support through effective self-service enablement.

• Elevated cross-functional collaboration and clarity across EDI and its business partners.

• Established a continuous adoption feedback loop that keeps enablement aligned to how the business works.

• Supported awareness of Enterprise Data Catalog Tool and processes for effective enablement and improved user adoption.

• Effectively maintained EDI SharePoint site changes and updates.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in enablement, training, change management, communications, or a related field, ideally in a SaaS company and/or supporting data, analytics, or enterprise technology teams.
• Self-directed: builds an approach from a broad mandate rather than a defined task list, sets priorities against organizational goals, and drives work to completion with minimal oversight.
• Demonstrated ability to drive outcomes and influence senior stakeholders without direct authority.
• Skilled at translating technical or process-heavy material into clear, accessible guidance for non-technical business users.
• Strong communicator able to tailor content and style across a range of audiences and channels.
• Comfortable operating with ambiguity in a fast-paced, evolving environment; identifies what's needed and acts without waiting to be directed.
• Experience building training, enablement, or communication materials in an enterprise environment.
• Background working in a SaaS company.
• Experience with AI and automation a plus, curiosity and eagerness to leverage AI required.
• Change management (Prosci) or PMP certification a plus, not required.
• US Citizenship or Green Card is required for this position.
