  • Stakeholder Collaboration : Partner with key business leaders, subject matter experts, and HR to align training programs with organizational needs.
  • Assessment & Improvement : Measure training effectiveness through feedback, data analysis, and continuous iteration to drive impact.

Qualifications & Experience :

  • Bachelor's degree required.
  • At least 5 years of experience in L&D within professional or financial services.
  • Proven experience in L&D roles with a balance of program development, content creation, and hands-on facilitation.
  • Strong facilitation skills with the ability to engage and train professionals at all levels.
  • Experience working in fast-paced, high-performance environments, ideally in financial or professional services.
  • Ability to translate complex concepts into accessible, actionable learning experiences.
  • Excellent project management skills with a strategic mindset.
  • This role is ideal for an L&D professional who thrives in a collaborative environment and is eager to build and deliver impactful learning solutions. If you’re excited about shaping the future of learning within financial services and are comfortable leading both design and delivery, we’d love to hear from you!
