At the Singapore National Co-operative Federation Ltd (SNCF), we represent co-operatives which are community-driven businesses built to serve and uplift. Our mission is to promote and develop cooperatives as a resilient and sustainable business model that empowers communities and strengthens society.

The Talent & Leadership Partner will lead T&L programmes and workstreams, including planning, designing, coordinating and driving delivery. The role requires strong relationship management and a proactive approach to follow-through so that programmes are delivered effectively and continue to improve over time.

Drive the planning, design, coordination and delivery of T&L programmes and initiatives, ensuring that programme objectives, structure, timelines and delivery arrangements are clearly developed and implemented.

Stakeholder and Participant Coordination

Serve as a liaison for co-operatives, participants, partners, vendors and internal teams. Manage communications, reminders, submissions, feedback collection and follow-ups, and flag issues early to ensure timelines, information and deliverables are properly managed.

Tracking, Reporting and Programme Improvement for T&L Programmes

Maintain trackers, collate data and feedback, and prepare reporting inputs for management updates and programme evaluation. Use data and observations to identify areas for improvement and improve programme delivery.

Overseas Engagements

Coordinate arrangements for overseas conferences, learning trips and T&L-related events, including logistics, participant communications, on-site support and follow-up. The role may require participation in selected local and overseas engagements.

Qualifications & Experience

• Degree in Business, Communications, or related field.
• Candidates should have 1 to 3 years of relevant experience in learning and development, partnerships, programme coordination, stakeholder engagement or relationship management.
• Strong organisational and coordination skills, with the ability to manage timelines, logistics, trackers, follow-ups and multiple workstreams.

• Comfortable with data collation, basic reporting, documentation and maintaining accurate programme records.
• Willing to support local and overseas conferences, learning trips and SNCF-led events, including occasional travel where required.
