What will your typical day look like?

Great leadership doesn’t happen by chance—it’s nurtured, developed, and continuously refined. In this role, you'll be at the heart of shaping the leadership experience within the firm, ensuring our people are equipped to lead with confidence and impact.

As the Learning Manager, you’ll lead the charge in defining and delivering our Leadership and Development strategy.

• Facilitate high-impact instructor-led leadership programs and build facilitation capability across the firm.
• Measure program effectiveness using data-driven learning analytics to continuously assess and improve impact.
