As Talent and Development Manager, you will lead talent management programs that enhance employee performance and development. Reporting to the Director of Talent Management, you will own the execution of the company's performance enablement strategy, including iterating on the rollout of a new platform (Windmill) to foster continuous feedback, strengthen manager coaching, increase employee development focus, and enhance bi-annual performance reviews.
Key responsibilities include:
- Partner with the Director and VP of Talent Management to translate strategic outcomes into actionable tactics and strategies
- Design, execute, and manage the bi-annual performance review process
- Develop clear, engaging communications and training on program updates, milestones, and next steps
- Engage closely with managers, employees, and stakeholders as the go-to expert on performance enablement, driving continuous improvement and gathering feedback
- Serve as key contributor and/or project manager for other talent management programs including promotions, talent assessment and planning, and manager/leader upskilling
The role requires strong project management skills, ability to build relationships across functions, and a continuous improvement mindset. You'll work in a fast-paced, evolving environment where the company emphasizes customer-centric thinking, hypothesis-driven work, and execution for impact rather than adherence to industry benchmarks.
