Manage learning administration and reporting, including maintaining accurate learning records, tracking participation and program effectiveness, and developing reporting and insights that measure learning outcomes and business impact.
Use learning data, participant feedback, and business outcomes to continuously improve learning experiences and development offerings.
Contribute to broader People & Organization initiatives, departmental priorities, and people strategy projects.

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of experience in a Talent Development, Learning & Development, Organizational Development, or similar role within a mid-to-large-sized organization.

Excellent communication, facilitation, and presentation skills, with strong written and verbal communication abilities.
