What you will do

This is not a traditional training role. The Learning & Performance Manager will act as a strategic capability leader, accountable for building a future ready workforce that directly impacts operational performance, compliance and business outcomes. While initially aligned to support operational functions, the role is expected to operate with a site wide perspective, influencing capability strategy across multiple functions as organisational needs evolve. You will partner with leaders to diagnose performance challenges, design capability solutions and embed scalable learning and performance systems that go beyond training to address the full operating environment.

Leadership & Learning Culture

• Partner with leadership to strengthen leadership capability, including coaching effectiveness, talent development and succession readiness.
