We are looking for an exceptional Learning & Development Lead to play a pivotal role in transforming how we develop talent, leaders and organisational capability across one of London's most diverse and dynamic boroughs.

• Lead innovation in digital, blended and scalable learning solutions.
• Develop leadership and management capability across all levels of the organisation.
• Influence senior leaders to embed learning into organisational culture and business planning.
• Ensure learning investment delivers measurable organisational impact.

What we're looking for

You will be an experienced learning, organisational development or workforce development leader with a track record of delivering strategic change and measurable organisational outcomes through learning and development.

You will bring:

• Significant experience leading organisational learning and development within a complex organisation.
• Expertise in leadership and management development.
• Strong strategic thinking and workforce planning capability.
• Experience using data and insight to shape learning priorities.
• The ability to influence, challenge and engage senior stakeholders.
• A passion for creating inclusive, high-performing workplace cultures.

• Shape the capability of a workforce serving one of London's most vibrant communities.
• Influence organisational culture and leadership at scale.
• Lead meaningful change with visible impact.
• Join an ambitious HR & OD team committed to doing things differently.

Make your mark. Shape the future.
