Ideally you will be based in our Head Office in Darwen, with elements of travel out to our store network across the UK and Ireland.
What You Will Do
- Strategic Vision: Develop a comprehensive L&D strategy aligned with our business goals, with a focus on product training and store operations.
- Collaboration: Collaborate with teams across the organisation to identify training needs, and work closely with subject matter experts to design and deliver effective training solutions and content.
- Innovation: Implement powerful learning methodologies, including e-learning, micro-learning, and blended learning approaches, to ensure our training is engaging and effective.
- Technology: Oversee our Learning Management System (LMS), ensuring it is optimised to deliver extraordinary training experiences.
- Measurement: Establish key performance indicators and metrics to assess the effectiveness of training programs, continually refining and improving our offerings.
- Budget Management: Lead all aspects of the L&D budget, ensuring resources are allocated efficiently to support our business initiatives and commercial functions – stores, field sales, customers and end users.
What We’re Looking For
- Industry Expertise: Proven experience in the paint and coatings industry with a deep understanding of our products would be highly beneficial.
- Strategic Leadership: A track record of developing and executing successful L&D strategies that drive business results.
- Innovative Mindset: A passion for staying on top of the latest trends in learning and development, and the ability to implement innovative ideas.
- Collaborative Spirit: An excellent communicator and collaborator who can work with diverse teams and drive alignment with our L&D vision.
- LMS Mastery: Proficiency in managing Learning Management Systems and an interest in using technology to enhance training.
With great work, comes great reward
