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.
