THE PURPOSE:
The Senior Manager, L&D is responsible for building, scaling, and owning the learning ecosystem at True Religion-from frontline retail associates to corporate teams. This role exists to drive a high-performance culture through best-in-class training programs, a fully implemented LMS, and development pathways that directly impact selling behaviors, operational excellence, and employee retention.

THE ROLE (what you are accountable for):

• Lead LMS Implementation and Launch: Own the end-to-end implementation and launch of a new Learning Management System. Define the LMS architecture, user roles, and reporting framework. Partner with IT, HR, and Operations to ensure a seamless rollout across corporate and retail populations, and develop a post-launch adoption and engagement strategy.
• Design and Execute Retail Training Programs: Develop comprehensive onboarding and ongoing training programs for store associates, keyholder, and store management populations. Build product knowledge, selling skills, brand story, and operational standards curricula that are engaging, mobile-friendly, and scalable across a multi-door fleet.

• Drive Compliance and Mandatory Training: Own the calendar and delivery of all required compliance training including harassment prevention, safety, loss prevention, and onboarding compliance modules. Maintain completion records within the LMS and report out regularly to HR and Legal stakeholders.
• Measure Training Effectiveness and ROI: Establish KPIs and reporting cadences to measure training effectiveness, learner engagement, and business impact. Use data from the LMS, performance management systems, and operational metrics to continuously improve learning programs and demonstrate L&D's contribution to business outcomes.
• Partner Cross-Functionally to Identify Learning Needs: Conduct ongoing needs assessments through partnerships with Retail Operations, Merchandising, HR, and Marketing. Translate business priorities, performance gaps, and strategic initiatives into actionable learning solutions that are delivered on time and on budget.

YOU ARE:
You bring a strong combination of retail learning expertise and instructional design capability, with a proven ability to build programs that stick on the sales floor and in the conference room. You are a natural project manager who can take an LMS from procurement through launch while simultaneously running a full training calendar. You are comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, take ownership of outcomes from strategy through execution, and lead with both empathy and accountability. You are as energized by building something from scratch as you are by coaching a store manager to unlock their potential.
