About this role: Wells Fargo is seeking a Lead Business Accountability Specialist for Continuous Improvement. Responsible for synthesizing process engineering, advanced technologies, and Organizational Change Management (OCM) into packaged frameworks and methodologies that mature operational IT practices and drive operational performance from “functional” to “pioneering”. The goal is to empower risk and operational IT teams to work smarter and efficiently, stay secure and resilient, and embrace culture of continuous maturity. In this role, you will: Sit at the intersection of operations and strategy, turning complex requirements into streamlined workflows. Design and implement ITSM and Risk Management frameworks that don't just "check boxes" but actually improve the speed and quality of delivery. Move away from one-off fixes to build modular processes and tool configurations that can be "plugged in" across various departments. Embed risk thinking into operational workflows as a practical capability teams can use, then iterate for improvement. Identify and integrate AI-driven automation for predictive risk modeling, automated incident response, and self-service service management. Using OCM principles, you’ll ensure that new processes aren't just launched—they are adopted. You'll guide teams through the "valley of despair" that often accompanies new tech and workflows. Maximize our current tech stack (e.g., ServiceNow, Jira Service Management, GRC tools) to ensure they are serving the process, not the other way around. In this role you will work head-down executing a ticket queue or maintain someone else’s framework. This role stays engaged through adoption and own the outcomes your solutions produce. You will have executive sponsorship, access to tooling engineering, and a real appetite for efficiency across the organization. This is a role for a practitioner who has already proven they can do this work and is ready to do it at enterprise scale with room to shape the practice from the ground up. Teams are measurably more mature in how they manage services and risk — and they know why it matters. Create reusable frameworks, playbooks, and process assets are adopted across the enterprise — not sitting in a SharePoint folder. AI-enabled tooling is embedded in workflows where it adds clear operational value.

The Process Artist: You are well-versed in ITIL, COBIT, or NIST frameworks, and you are pragmatic enough to adapt them to real-world needs. The People Person: You understand that the best process in the world fails if people don't use it. You possess strong OCM skills to influence culture and behavior.
