Description du poste

Make Your Mark:

We are seeking an experienced Learning Business Partner to serve as the embedded L&D presence for BlackLine’s EMEA region. This individual-contributor role is the regional half of a global hub-and-spoke learning model: a central design and measurement hub builds programmes once for global scale, and this role localises, launches, and delivers them across EMEA. Reporting to the Senior Director, Talent Development & Engagement, the ideal candidate pairs strong facilitation and stakeholder skills with the judgment to operate independently as the primary L&D face to EMEA business leaders — without owning global strategy, programme design, or measurement frameworks, which sit with the central hub. The ideal candidate is also genuinely AI-fluent — someone who uses AI tools as a natural part of their daily work and is prepared to model that for EMEA audiences as the function rolls out programming across the enterprise.

You’ll Get To:

Be the L&D Face to EMEA: Serve as the primary point of contact between BlackLine’s global Talent Development organisation, our EMEA GM and Leadership Council, business leaders and EMEA HR Business Partners, translating regional needs into requests the central design and measurement hub can act on.

• Localise and Deliver Global Programmes: Adapt and deliver globally-designed learning programmes — including leadership and manager development, onboarding, AI-fluency, and capability-building curricula — for EMEA audiences, using the train-the-trainer kits, facilitation guides, and content built centrally by the Senior Learning Experience Designer.

• Own Regional Onboarding & Development Delivery: Lead in-region delivery of EMEA onboarding and manager/leadership development programming, ensuring consistent, high-quality execution across the region's markets and cultures.

• Facilitate with Impact: Lead workshops, leadership sessions, and regionally-tailored learning experiences — including certification programmes, AI-enablement sessions, and emerging-capability curricula as they roll out — that resonate with EMEA's diverse business context.

• Model AI-First Ways of Working: Actively use AI tools in your own day-to-day work — programme localisation, facilitation prep, stakeholder communication, and reporting — and bring that practice visibly to EMEA. As the L&D function’s regional face, you are a proof point that AI-augmented work is how BlackLine’s people function team operates.

• Drive Platform Adoption: Champion regional adoption and engagement with BlackLine's learning technology stack (e.g., Workday Learning, Udemy), partnering with the Learning Operations & Measurement Manager on rollout and usage in EMEA.

• Report Against Enterprise Metrics: Track and report EMEA-specific learning outcomes using the measurement framework and dashboard owned by the Learning Operations & Measurement Manager, surfacing regional insights and localisation gaps back to the hub — rather than building measurement frameworks independently.

• Coordinate Regional Delivery Logistics: Support day-to-day scheduling and coordination with regional facilitators and in-market training vendors on delivery logistics, working within vendor relationships and budgets that are owned and negotiated centrally.

• Partner Cross-Functionally: Collaborate closely with the central L&D hub, HR Business Partners and the wider People & Culture team to ensure a cohesive employee development journey across EMEA.

What You’ll Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Organisational Development, Education, Business, or a related field, or equivalent work experience. Advanced degree preferred.

• 8+ years of progressive experience in Learning & Development, Talent Development, or as an HR/Learning Business Partner, including experience supporting or partnering with regional or international teams inside a global, matrixed organisation.

• Demonstrated experience localising and delivering learning or leadership development programmes designed by a central or global team, rather than building programmes independently.

• Proven track record of consulting with and influencing senior business leaders in a matrixed, distributed environment — without formal management authority over them.

• Exceptional facilitation, presentation, and written communication skills, with the ability to engage and inspire diverse audiences across multiple EMEA markets and cultures.

• Working knowledge of adult learning principles and instructional design fundamentals — sufficient to adapt and localise existing content, not to design new curricula from scratch.

• Comfortable coordinating day-to-day logistics with external facilitators and training vendors, without owning vendor selection, contracts, or budget.

• Proficiency with HR technology, modern learning platforms, and AI-enabled tools (experience with Workday, Peakon, Udemy, and Claude or comparable AI tools is a strong plus).

• Genuine AI fluency: You use AI tools as a real part of your daily workflow — for research, drafting, localisation, and prep — not as a novelty. You are comfortable working inside an AI-native function and are prepared to help EMEA colleagues do the same.

• Collaborative, low-ego operator who builds trust quickly across cross-functional and cross-cultural teams.

• Ability to travel up to 20% within the UK and internationally to support in-region delivery, leadership events, and team moments.
