• Facilitate workshops, coach individuals and teams, and support leaders in embedding learning into day‑to‑day performance.
• Measure learning effectiveness using data, insight and business metrics, demonstrating ROI and using findings to shape future capability decisions.
• Manage multiple capability programmes simultaneously, balancing strategic priorities with day‑to‑day business requirements.
• Build and manage relationships with external learning providers and capability partners to ensure high‑quality, measurable outcomes.
• Contribute to the development of capability frameworks, skills assessments and structured development pathways where appropriate.

• Proven experience designing and delivering learning and capability solutions within enterprise sales or large commercial organisations.
• Exceptional stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence, coach and challenge senior leaders and sales teams.
• Strong commercial awareness and performance consulting skills, with the ability to diagnose business needs and develop effective capability solutions.
• Experience owning capability strategies and translating business priorities into measurable development outcomes.
• Excellent facilitation, coaching and presentation skills across both virtual and face‑to‑face environments.
• Demonstrated experience managing learning programmes from initial discovery through delivery, evaluation and optimisation.
• Strong analytical skills, using data and insight to evaluate impact and drive continuous improvement.
• Ability to manage multiple programmes, stakeholders and competing priorities while delivering high‑quality outcomes.
• Experience managing external learning providers and capability partners.
• Self‑motivated, proactive and outcome‑focused, with a genuine passion for developing people and improving performance.
• Experience supporting enterprise sales teams, sales enablement or wider commercial functions.
