This is a brilliant opportunity for an experienced Learning & Development Manager to shape and deliver impactful learning across the business. You’ll be joining a high-performing HR function with real influence, where L&D is seen as a strategic driver, not just a support service.

You’ll work across the full employee lifecycle, designing and delivering modern, engaging learning experiences that genuinely move the needle, from early careers through to senior leadership.

The Role

You’ll play a key role in bringing the organisation’s L&D roadmap to life, with a strong focus on quality, innovation, and impact.

• Partnering with early careers teams to enhance development programmes for trainees, apprentices, and junior talent
• Creating practical toolkits and resources to support managers in leading and developing their teams effectively
• Collaborating closely with HR to align learning with wider people initiatives including performance, talent, and inclusion
• Managing multiple L&D projects simultaneously, ensuring delivery to a high standard, on time and within budget
• Using data, feedback, and insight to continuously improve learning interventions and demonstrate impact
• Acting as a trusted partner to stakeholders across the business, building strong and credible relationships

About You

You’ll be an experienced L&D professional who combines strong delivery skills with commercial awareness and the ability to influence.

We’re particularly interested in people who can demonstrate:

• Experience within a legal firm would be ideal or professional services, partnership, or similarly complex environment
• Strong facilitation skills, with experience delivering to a wide range of audiences, including senior stakeholders
• A track record of designing and implementing blended learning solutions that drive behavioural change
• The ability to build credibility quickly and work effectively with stakeholders at all levels
• A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with a passion for continuous improvement
• Strong organisational and project management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities
• Up-to-date knowledge of learning trends, tools, and digital approaches

Why Apply?

• Opportunity to shape L&D within a growing, forward-thinking organisation
• High visibility role with real impact across the business
• Supportive and collaborative HR team environment
• Flexible, hybrid working approach
• Genuine scope for development and progression
