ABOUT THE ROLE

The Director, Learning and Development will lead the design, development, and evolution of learning programs that strengthen leadership capability, drive employee growth, and align with organizational priorities. This role will architect scalable, high-impact development experiences—particularly in leadership development—through original content creation, learning journeys, and strong cross-functional partnerships, especially with HR Business Partners and organizational leaders. The ideal candidate blends instructional design expertise with business acumen and brings a passion for unlocking human potential at all levels of the organization.

THE DETAILS: This is a remote, work-from-home opportunity. This role requires infrequent travel.

In this role, you will be responsible for:

Program Design & Development

Design and build end-to-end learning programs (especially for leadership and manager development) that are scalable, inclusive, and aligned to strategic goals.
Create original content, tools, resources, and experiences—balancing virtual, in-person, and self-paced modalities.
Develop structured learning journeys that address the needs of different populations, from new people managers to senior leaders.

Stakeholder & HRBP Partnership

Partner with HR Business Partners and business leaders to understand capability needs and translate them into targeted development solutions.
Gather and apply feedback from stakeholders to continuously improve learning experiences.
Consult across departments to ensure learning strategy supports performance, engagement, and succession planning.

Facilitation & Enablement

Facilitate key learning experiences and train-the-trainer sessions where appropriate.
Coach and enable leaders to deliver learning or reinforce capability-building in their teams.

Measurement & Continuous Improvement

Define success metrics for learning programs and track impact on performance, engagement, and leadership readiness.
Use data and feedback to iterate and evolve learning programs in partnership with analytics teams, HRBPs, and learners.

VALUES

Self-motivated: Proactively jumps in to start a task or project with limited direction; asks to take on more responsibility and what’s next.
Driven: Motivated to succeed and get things done at a high level of achievement.
Intellectually curious: Demonstrates a genuine interest in learning new things and wants to know the reason “why” behind the way things are done.
Persistent: Demonstrates the ability to “keep at it” even when obstacles or challenges are present; returns to the work at hand after a change of course.
Resourceful: Proactive willingness to utilize available information and tools to figure things out.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES

Deep knowledge of adult learning principles and instructional design best practices.
Proven ability to design and deliver effective leadership and professional development programs.
Strong facilitation and coaching skills.
Experience working closely with HR Business Partners and business leaders.

Experience with learning technology platforms and tools (e.g., LMS, authoring tools, virtual facilitation platforms).

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE

8+ years of experience in learning & development, talent development, or leadership development, with a strong background in program design and content creation.
