Job Description

We\xe2\x80\x99re the Pension Protection Fund. We protect millions of people in the UK who belong to defined benefit pension schemes. When these schemes fail, we\xe2\x80\x99re ready to help.

We do this by paying our members, by charging a levy and by investing sustainably. Our work has a real impact on people\xe2\x80\x99s lives, so we strive to do it well, with integrity and their future in mind.

We are recruiting for a Talent Development Manager to join our Human Resources (HR) and Organisational Development (OD) team.

This position will work in partnership with managers and the HR team to define, advise and identify appropriate learning and development activity to increase people capability across the PPF. This includes programmes and initiatives that help towards our Diversity and Inclusion strategy, which is one of our strategic priorities.

This role will support the Head of OD and Head of HR in delivering elements of the People Plans that have been set across all of our business areas, providing the support and drive for initiatives such as the internal talent development programmes, working closely with external training providers in the design and coordination of the programmes.

Although this role does not include line management responsibilities, it does provide an opportunity to manage and lead projects and key elements of the training function.

Our ideal applicant will be CIPD qualified (within a HR or L&D focus) or equivalent, with proven generalist learning and development experience of managing projects from end to end. Applicants will be able to demonstrate taking a business partner approach in planning and implementing training/ coaching programmes, including experience of working with a variety of internal and external stakeholders such as 3rd party suppliers (e.g., Training and apprenticeship providers, etc.). Additionally, applicants will need to be able to demonstrate a proven track record of supporting diversity and inclusion initiatives as part of the learning and development approach.
