Role Overview
We're looking for a Director of Training to lead the evolution of enterprise learning strategy across multiple clients, sites, and lines of business. You'll own workforce readiness, accelerate speed-to-proficiency, and make sure the training organisation delivers measurable business outcomes - not just classroom completion.
This role goes beyond traditional training management. You'll lead learning transformation initiatives, oversee onboarding and certification programmes, implement advanced learning technologies (including AI-enabled coaching and learning analytics), and build scalable solutions that support operational and client growth.
You'll cover programmes across the US and Monterey regions, which are largely property & casualty insurance, and you'll bring practical experience using AI-enabled learning tools and modern training approaches to improve delivery quality, speed, and learner outcomes.
What You Will Do
Learning strategy and business performance
Develop and execute enterprise learning strategy aligned to operational goals, client expectations, and workforce plans
Create scalable onboarding, certification, upskilling, and continuous learning programmes across multiple clients and locations
Set learning objectives and performance measures tied to business outcomes, including speed-to-proficiency, quality, productivity, retention, and customer experience
Partner with Operations, Client Services, Workforce Management, Human Resources, Quality, and senior leadership to anticipate needs and build workforce readiness solutions
Develop training plans based on staffing forecast models, client requirements, performance improvement plans, and new or expanding clients
Learning innovation and technology
Lead the adoption and optimisation of learning technologies, including LMS, LXP, simulation platforms, AI-enabled coaching tools, knowledge management systems, and digital adoption technologies
Drive innovation through emerging technologies, automation, AI, learner analytics, simulation-based learning, and personalised development pathways
Evaluate and implement technology solutions that improve learner engagement, trainer productivity, certification outcomes, and overall learning effectiveness
Certification, delivery quality, and readiness
Direct training teams in the delivery of all new-hire and supplemental client training
Establish enterprise certification standards and governance processes that ensure learner and trainer readiness
Develop scalable trainer certification frameworks, assessment tools, quality standards, and performance measurement methodologies
Ensure the quality of training delivery, including classroom administration, instructor effectiveness and certification, tracking of training outcomes, and performance of graduated employees
Serve as the primary point of contact for training delivery concerns, including direct client communication when required
Analytics and continuous improvement
Build and maintain learning dashboards, scorecards, and executive reporting to measure training effectiveness and business impact
Use performance data to identify trends, root causes, opportunities, and strategic recommendations
Lead continuous improvement initiatives that lift learning outcomes while improving operational efficiency
Provide logistical leadership for course development, delivery, evaluation, process measurement, and cost management of the training function
Leadership and client partnership
Lead and develop Training Managers, Trainers, Curriculum Developers, Instructional Designers, and Learning Specialists across the organisation
Provide performance feedback through monitoring sessions, evaluations, coaching, and performance improvement planning
Create a culture of accountability, innovation, coaching, and continuous development, including succession planning within the training organisation
Participate in operational reviews, client discussions, strategic planning sessions, and performance improvement initiatives
Build credibility with executive leadership by showing the measurable business value of learning investment
What We Are Looking For
Bachelor's degree in Adult Education, Organisational Development, Human Resources, Business, Learning & Development, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
Master's degree preferred
8+ years of progressive leadership experience in Learning & Development, Training, Workforce Enablement, Talent Development, or a related field
5+ years leading multi-site learning organisations within a contact center, BPO, customer experience, telecom, or operations environment
Experience supporting multiple clients, lines of business, and geographically dispersed teams
Experience supporting insurance programmes or accounts, ideally property & casualty (P&C), strongly preferred given the US and Monterey portfolio
Demonstrated success leading large-scale learning transformation initiatives
Experience implementing learning technologies such as LMS, LXP, simulation tools, AI-enabled coaching, digital adoption solutions, or similar platforms
Proven ability to build and use performance dashboards, scorecards, and training analytics
Experience monitoring and evaluating training delivery, including coaching, feedback, and post-training performance
Proficiency in curriculum design, including evaluating, developing, and implementing training modules
Experience in project management, conflict resolution, negotiation, and consensus building
Proficiency in MS Office, flowcharting, and project management software preferred
What We Are Not Looking For
Training leaders whose experience is mainly single-site or single-client delivery
L&D generalists who have not led multi-site training teams in a contact center or BPO environment
Leaders focused only on content design, with little ownership of classroom delivery quality, certification, and graduate performance
Candidates who treat learning technology as a side project rather than a core part of how training scales
Candidates with no exposure to insurance, P&C, or adjacent regulated-service programmes in a contact center environment
Why Join
Lead enterprise learning strategy and training delivery for a large, growing global organisation
Make a direct impact on workforce readiness, client programme performance, and operational outcomes across a largely insurance portfolio
Shape how AI-enabled coaching, simulation, and learning analytics sit inside a high-volume training function
Work closely with Operations, Workforce Management, HR, Quality, and Client Services in a culture that invests in development and internal mobility
The role offers a competitive compensation package with a comprehensive US benefits programme, including medical, dental, vision, life and disability cover, 401(k), and paid time off.
