• Deliver engaging classroom, virtual, and on-the-job training sessions
• Manage training delivery rota’s & content leaders – leading on all content delivery whilst utilising internal people when needed
• Continuously evaluate the roadmap for increasing client delivery taking into consideration both historical, and capacity available in the respective offices, whilst identifying challenges, risks and solutions
• Partner with Commercial, Client Services and People Teams to ensure the strategy for unlocking growth is aligned to the delivery capabilities and strategic business priorities
• Ensure all learning initiatives promote inclusivity and diversity in line with proLeaders values, and create and inclusive and encouraging space for all participants
• Gather feedback to ensure continuous improvement of learning activities and initiatives
• Identify high-potential graduates for accelerated development paths.
• Implement metrics to assess the effectiveness of training programs, making necessary adjustments based on feedback and performance data
• Continuously improve the program based on feedback, outcomes, and industry best practices.
• Oversee training of Senior Associates, Project Leads and Managers
