About the Role
Are you passionate about helping people grow and succeed? As our Learning & Development Specialist, you'll be at the heart of shaping how our people learn, connect, and thrive.
You'll design and deliver onboarding experiences that make new hires feel set up for success from day one — not just going through the motions, but genuinely ready to do their best work. You'll build programs that are structured where they need to be and personal where it matters most.
Beyond onboarding, you'll champion a culture where learning never stops. You'll have the autonomy to identify skill gaps, create meaningful development pathways, and directly influence how people grow in their careers — all while working alongside leadership to align your programs with where the business is headed.
This is a role with real visibility and real impact. The work you do will be felt across the organization — from the new hire who hits the ground running to the tenured employee who discovers a new direction. You'll see the results of your efforts, and so will everyone else.
