The Senior Manager, Learning & Inclusion leads our Learning & Development and DEIB learning portfolio, from manager development and instructional design to DEI learning and employee listening. This role combines deep L&D expertise with a genuine, embedded commitment to inclusion — someone who sees DEIB not as a standalone initiative, but as a design principle woven through every program we build. We're looking for a seasoned L&D leader, ideally with experience running a full L&D function, who brings real depth in instructional design and curriculum development, and who can personally take programs from concept to a finished, polished product. You're also an experienced people leader who develops team members and grows individual contributors into stronger, more capable professionals — while staying hands-on with content and delivery when the work calls for it. You'll partner closely with the Senior Director of Talent to shape and evolve our learning and inclusion strategy together.
