About the role
As our Learning & Development Manager, you’ll own LEAP’s learning agenda – setting the strategy, building the roadmap and delivering it. You’ll bring our core capabilities to life, launch our Manager Development Program, stand up a single Learning Management System (LMS), and bring leadership, compliance, onboarding and product training together into one joined-up L&D function.
This is a build role for someone who moves fast and owns the outcome. Reporting to our Chief People Officer, you’ll be the expert in the room – bringing the plan, making the calls and keeping leaders informed and on board. You’ll know when to design and facilitate yourself, when to bring in experts, and how to make a big impact with creative, cost-effective programs.
What you'll do
Set the L&D strategy – build and own a 12-month L&D roadmap aligned to business priorities, and take it from plan to delivery at pace.
Bring our Core Capabilities to life – embed LEAP’s Core Capabilities into programs, manager development and everyday people practices.
Build great managers – design and launch our Manager Development Program, facilitate key sessions and coach leaders to embed learning in their teams.
Own the LMS – lead the implementation and continuous improvement of a single platform to host, track and report on all learning.
Build one joined-up L&D function – lead product training, compliance and onboarding learning so every LEAPster gets up to speed quickly and consistently.
Partner and influence – work with the P&C team, Execs, internal experts (Product, InfoSec, regional teams) and external providers to deliver relevant, scalable solutions.
Measure and report impact – track participation and effectiveness, and use data to show what’s working, what isn’t and where to invest next.
Own the budget – plan and deliver programs creatively within financial parameters, finding smart ways to stretch resources further.
What you'll bring
Proven L&D leadership – you’ve built and owned L&D strategy and programs end to end, ideally in a fast-growing tech or professional services business.
Bias for action – you move quickly, make decisions with imperfect information, launch, learn and iterate. You don’t wait to be told what’s next.
Strategy into execution – you turn a big-picture goal into a clear plan, milestones and results, and keep momentum all the way to delivery.
Clear, compelling communication – you explain ideas simply, build a business case and bring Execs and leaders with you – in writing and in the room.
Ownership – you hold yourself accountable for outcomes, keep stakeholders updated without being chased, and flag risks early.
