What you’ll be doing

We’re recruiting for an experienced and visionary Head of Learning to join our Senior Leadership Team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a passion for learning and development, strong commercial instincts, and a desire to shape the future of corporate training. You'll play a key role in identifying market opportunities, developing strategies to attract and retain clients, and driving business growth aligned with our strategic goals.

In this exciting role, you'll lead a talented team of trainers and learning professionals to design and deliver impactful training solutions for our corporate and SME clients. From developing engaging training content to curating memorable marketing events, you’ll ensure our offerings reflect our brand and stay ahead of market demands.

You’ll also work closely with the Commercial and Finance teams to manage new business proposals, maintain strong client relationships, oversee pricing strategies, and ensure financial targets are met. Your leadership will be essential in maintaining operational excellence, managing trainer workloads, and ensuring every client receives an outstanding service.

About you
