THE ROLE
This role is Hybrid (3 days/week onsite) in Hanover, PA; Batesville, IN; or Reno, NV - remote may be considered depending on experience and background
The Regional Learning & Quality Manager owns the development, standardization, and ongoing performance of Learning & Development and Quality Assurance programs across Thrive Market's fulfillment center network. This role is accountable for both building and sustaining the systems that drive associate capability, operational accuracy, and quality consistency - not just maintaining what exists, but continuously improving it.
The Regional L&Q Manager leads a distributed quality organization with direct reporting authority across the network. Each site has a dedicated Quality team - a Quality Manager, team leads, and associates scaled to site volume - all reporting up through this role. Day-to-day quality operations are owned at the site level, but program standards, performance accountability, and continuous improvement governance sit with the Regional L&Q Manager. Success here means developing site Quality Managers as operators and leaders, not just auditing against a standard.
Learning & Development operates differently. Site-based trainers execute associate training at each FC but do not report to this role. The Regional L&Q Manager owns the program - curriculum, certification standards, SOPs, and effectiveness measurement - and drives execution through partnership with Site Directors, Operations leaders, and those trainers. Producing consistent outcomes without positional control over the people delivering them is a core requirement of this role.
The two functions are intentionally paired. Training effectiveness is measured by quality outcomes; quality gaps drive the training agenda. The Regional L&Q Manager operates across up to four fulfillment centers with regular site presence, sets network-wide standards, and surfaces systemic issues before they compound. This role suits someone equally comfortable building a curriculum and conducting a quality audit - and who sees both as one system.
