The Role:

Reporting to the Director, Talent Practices & Learning Programs, the Manager, Learning & Leadership Development plays a critical role in executing Cox Enterprises' people strategy. This role sits at the intersection of learning, talent, and performance - translating learning strategy into impactful initiatives that build the capabilities our workforce needs while ensuring development is closely connected to how we identify, grow, engage, and retain talent across the organization.

The Manager, Learning & Leadership Development will bring creativity and innovation to every aspect of this work - from designing engaging learning solutions to introducing new approaches that gain traction across the enterprise.

• Define clear learning objectives, target audiences, delivery modalities, and success measures before development begins.

• Apply instructional design principles to create content that reflects our culture and language while driving meaningful behavior change-not just knowledge transfer.

• Pilot, facilitate, evaluate, and refine learning experiences using participant feedback and success measures to ensure content remains relevant, effective, and current.

• Facilitate a variety of learning and organizational development experiences, including programs such as DiSC, and Feedback That Lands.

Integration with Talent & Performance Practices

• Support talent review and succession planning processes by identifying development needs, ensuring learning solutions address capability gaps for critical roles and top talent, and connecting learning investments to meaningful talent outcomes.

• Advance the integration of development into talent and performance practices, ensuring growth opportunities are closely linked to how we assess, develop, and move talent across the organization.

External Partner Management

• Manage external partner relationships, including contracting and evaluation to ensure maximum value and impact from our investments.

• Identify, assess, and engage external resources, facilitators, and content providers that align with our learning strategy, guiding principles, and organizational needs.

• Stay informed on emerging learning trends and best practices, bringing relevant insights and recommendations to the team to continuously enhance our approach.

Measurement & Impact

• Partner with stakeholders to define success measures that connect learning outcomes to business results and help tell a compelling story of impact.

• Leverage data and insights to evaluate effectiveness, drive continuous improvement, and inform future learning and development decisions.

• Support the integration of talent data and workforce insights into learning priorities, using those insights to shape and refine capability-building investments.

• Monitor spend against plan and track the return on investment (ROI) of learning initiatives to ensure resources are aligned with business priorities and outcomes.

Stakeholder Partnership

• Collaborate closely with HR functional partners to ensure a connected, aligned approach to employee growth and development across the organization.

• Partner with business leaders and key stakeholders to understand capability needs and shape learning priorities and experiences that support business objectives.

• Bring a consultative mindset to the role, serving as a trusted advisor who effectively connects development strategies and investments to broader business goals and priorities.

The right candidate could also have a different combination, such as a master's degree and 4 years' experience; or a Ph.D. and 1 year of experience; or 10 years' experience in a related field.

• Demonstrated ability to bring creative, non-traditional thinking to learning design - translating ideas into experiences that earn attention and stick.

• Experience designing and delivering enterprise learning or leadership development offerings.

• Experience working across HR functions - learning, talent management, or performance - with an understanding of how these disciplines connect.

• Experience managing external partner relationships.

• Demonstrated ability to translate strategy into execution-ready initiatives.
