Job description

  • Partner on Strategic Change and Interventions: Work closely with People Partners and senior leaders on major change management and leadership/capability transformation initiatives. Act as a sparring partner and co-designer-helping leaders navigate transformation, embed new operating models, and drive behavioral change.

Identify opportunities to strengthen leadership capability and improve the employee experience across key touchpoints.
  • Design and Deliver Leadership Programs: Own the creation and evolution of leadership development programs, workshops, and learning journeys-both centrally and in partnership with department leaders. Build experiences that drive mindset shifts, strengthen leadership skills, and support managers in creating high-performing teams. Stay ahead by exploring innovative learning approaches, including AI-enabled tools and methods that integrate into daily work.
  • Own and Optimize Key Vendor Relationships: Manage key learning partnerships (e.g., Sharpist, GoodHabitz). Build strong relationships, negotiate offerings, and ensure we're getting maximum value and impact from these partnerships.
  • Facilitate Engaging Learning Experiences: Lead dynamic leadership sessions, workshops, and cohort-based programs. Work with various cohorts across the organization to create high-impact experiences that stick., * Leadership Experience: Deep Understanding of People Management: You've worked closely with managers - whether as a coach, facilitator, People Partner, or former people manager yourself - and you understand firsthand what it takes to manage, develop, and inspire people. You know the real challenges managers face and can design solutions that actually work.

Requirements

  • Tech-Savvy and Forward-Thinking: You're comfortable leveraging AI and digital tools to scale impact. You stay curious about new approaches to learning and development, and you're excited to experiment with what's possible.
