Verathon® is looking for a Senior Talent Development Manager to join our Talent Management team in Bothell, WA. This is a high-impact role for an experienced talent leader who will design, own, and continuously improve the systems that help Verathon employees and leaders grow — from new hire onboarding and core manager training, through career development and performance management, to AI-driven upskilling. Reporting to the VP, People, this role partners closely with HRBPs, People Operations, and business leaders across the company to build a thoughtful, metric-driven development ecosystem that strengthens capability, performance, engagement, and retention.

What You'll Do:

New Employee Experience

• Own and continuously evolve New Hire Orientation and the onboarding/immersion experience, ensuring new employees feel welcomed, informed, and set up for success from day one.
• Partner with HRBPs, People Operations, and business leaders to identify gaps in the onboarding journey and recommend improvements grounded in feedback and data.

Life at Verathon: Engagement, EVP & Inclusion

• Partner with Corporate Marketing and cross-functional teams to shape and reinforce Verathon’s Employer Value Proposition (EVP) and employer brand across the talent lifecycle, to attract and retain top talent.
• Own the Engagement survey process end-to‑end, including rollout, results analysis, and partnering with leaders on action planning.
• Lead the Inclusion & Wellness program.

People Enablement

• Own new- manager training, from first‑time managers to experienced leaders.
• Build programs (not just courses) that produce measurable productivity gains, not completion certificates.
• Own the LMS strategy, including content curation, curriculum structure, system administration, and adoption across the organization.
• Apply strong critical thinking and an AI‑first mindset to identify opportunities where AI tools and technology can enhance program design, delivery, and efficiency.
• Own the career track framework (Career Tracks) across the company: leveling criteria, competency models, and promotion readiness standards that reflect AI‑augmented expectations.
• Facilitate and/or enable teams to utilize Clifton StrengthsFinder sessions for teams and individuals to build self‑awareness and strengthen team effectiveness.

Program Measurement & Continuous Improvement

• Gather Voice of Customer (VOC) feedback from employees and leaders to inform program design and recommend targeted solutions.
• Use metrics and data to measure the effectiveness and impact of talent development programs, reporting results to HR and business leadership.
• Build sustainment plans to ensure training and development initiatives create lasting behavior change rather than one‑time events.
• Other ad hoc duties as needed.

Knowledge Skills & Abilities

• Bachelor’s degree in human resources, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• Significant, progressive experience in talent development, learning & development, organizational development, or performance management, ideally with exposure to high‑growth and/or AI‑native companies.
• Experience with, or willingness to become certified in, Situational Leadership, Crucial Conversations, and similar leadership development frameworks.
• Experience owning or administering a Learning Management System (LMS), including content strategy and reporting.
• Personal, daily fluency with AI tools (e.g., Claude, Claude Code, or similar) comfortable applying AI in your own workflows, not just talking about it.
• Strong systems thinking — able to see role design, career growth, performance, and enablement as one connected system.
• Strong facilitation, consultation, and presentation skills, with the ability to engage audiences ranging from individual contributors to senior/executive leaders.
• Track record partnering cross‑functionally with senior leaders as a trusted thought partner, not an order‑taker.
• Ability to translate employee and leader feedback (VOC) and program metrics into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Excellent judgment, discretion, and written and verbal communication skills, with strong attention to detail and follow‑through.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and HRIS/LMS platforms.
• Ability to manage multiple programs and priorities in a fast‑paced, evolving environment, working both independently and collaboratively.

Bonus Experience:

• Experience inside an AI‑native or AI‑forward company where AI was a core driver of how work got done.
• Background redesigning roles or career frameworks specifically in response to AI adoption.
• Prior exposure to healthcare, SaaS, or other regulated industries.
• Familiarity with Gallup‑based tools (Hiring Assessment, Q12 Engagement Survey, StrengthsFinder) preferred.

Salary range - $135,000 - $170,000 (Compensation will vary based on skills, experience and location; it is not typical to be hired at or above the top of the salary range).

Full‑time employees who are not on a commission plan are eligible for Verathon’s annual bonus plan based on company and individual performance.

Verathon provides a competitive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, basic life insurance, paid holidays, paid time off and a 401(k) matching plan. For more information, please visit https://www.verathon.com/sites/default/files/2026-02/US_HQ_Employee_Benefits_Summary.pdf.
