Job description

Leadr Academy Coach (Fully Remote + Some Travel)

First of all - Thank You!

This probably isn’t the first job description you’ve read today. Maybe this is one of over 100 you reviewed this week. So, before we go any further, we want to stop and say thank you for considering this role. We know you have options and we’d like you to consider adding us to that list.

About Leadr:

At Leadr, we’re on a mission to rid the world of bad management, by empowering middle managers to become exceptional leaders who transform the culture and outcomes of their teams.

Today, too many companies leave managers to fend for themselves, resulting in a 60% failure rate within their first two years for first-time leaders. The rapid growth of AI is worsening this problem, as the purview of the modern manager expands. While many organizations respond to these challenges with internal training programs, these are frequently relegated to already overwhelmed HR leaders, who are taught to prioritize compliance and administration rather than genuinely improving team clarity, cohesion, and performance .

We see middle managers differently: they are the heartbeat of company culture and the driving force behind team results. At Leadr, we build AI-powered software tools that improve quality of life for those managers, while coaching them toward better leadership and outcomes – paired with hands‑on training for these leaders to teach them the most critical skills overlooked by companies.

When you join Leadr, you’re committing to help us tackle this important and rewarding challenge: transforming how people lead.

About the role

• As a Leadr Academy Coach, you will be instrumental in developing and delivering our manager training programs. Your role is to coach, equip, and empower leaders with practical skills that drive performance and engagement. You will facilitate live training sessions, provide hands‑on coaching, and ensure managers leave each session with clear, actionable next steps.

What you’ll do

• Facilitate live, interactive training sessions for managers at various leadership levels via virtual and onsite sessions.
• Coach managers on core leadership principles, people development, and performance management.
• Provide individual and group coaching, helping managers apply training to real‑world challenges.
• Assess participant progress and provide constructive feedback for growth.
• Collaborate with the Leadr Academy team to refine curriculum and improve training effectiveness.
• Stay up to date with the latest leadership and management trends to enhance program content.
• Travel to be onsite with clients and with the Leadr team is expected at minimum of 2x per month.

Qualifications

• Proven experience in leadership development, coaching, or management training.
• Thrives in high change environments.
• Can independently manage and prioritize clients, projects and tasks.
• Strong facilitation skills, with the ability to engage and motivate participants.
• Knowledge of people development best practices and how to build high-performing teams.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to provide practical, actionable insights that managers can implement immediately.
• Experience working with SaaS tools or leadership development platforms (preferred, but not required).

Benefits of Joining Our Team:

• Remote work schedule (with exceptions of some travel)
• AWARD-WINNING CULTURE: At Leadr, we’re proud to foster a workplace where people thrive. We've been recognized as one of The Dallas Morning News Best Places to Work every year from 2022 to 2025, earning the prestigious Best at Values award. We ranked #12 on Will Reed’s Top 100 Workplaces and #8 on LinkedIn’s Top Startups —because we believe people deserve to be led and developed, not just managed.
• An opportunity to work in a Tech start-up
• We offer PTO, Paid Holidays, Flex Holidays, etc.
• Medical insurance offered (health, dental, vision, life)
• We are committed to developing you as a leader and providing career growth throughout your employment with us.
