Responsibilities

• Plan, manage, and monitor project deliveries, coordinating faculty, client agendas, and key stakeholders.
• Contribute to the design of the learning programs drafted by our Learning & Innovation Designers, refining and translating them into clear delivery plans and detailed session flows.

• Manage communications with all stakeholders (participants, business leaders, suppliers), ensuring clarity and alignment identifying and resolving project issues proactively.
• Monitor progress against objectives, including project economics, while identifying inefficiencies and opportunities to optimise workflows through AI.
• Oversee all operational aspects of delivery — logistics, catering, platforms, and learning tools — optimising processes where possible.

• You have a solid understanding of, and genuine interest in, AI and its business applications, and you would feel comfortable navigating AI-related conversations.
• You demonstrate strong client management and communication skills, with the ability to interact confidently with both participants and senior stakeholders.
• You show resilience, organisation, and accountability in fast-paced environments, maintaining quality under pressure.
• You have a genuine interest in innovation and digital transformation and are comfortable working in evolving, dynamic contexts.
• You have native-level proficiency in Italian and professional fluency in English.
• You are either based in Milan or can easily reach it.
