The Leadership Development Manager builds the programs that turn Gifthealth's people into its biggest advantage. Sitting within the Enterprise Learning & Development function and reporting to the Senior Director of Enterprise Learning & Development, this role owns the strategy and day-to-day execution behind leadership development and employee growth across the company, designing experiences that sharpen skills, deepen accountability, and connect every team member's development to Gifthealth's broader outcomes.

This person designs, delivers, and measures programs that develop leaders at every level and help individual contributors grow into their next role, partnering closely with the Senior Director of Enterprise Learning & Development, department heads, and managers to diagnose skill gaps, build learning paths, and embed development into how Gifthealth operates day to day rather than as a once-a-year event.

• Coach and advise people managers on team development, feedback practices, and performance conversations.
• Build succession and readiness plans in partnership with department leaders to prepare high-potential employees for their next role.
• Facilitate leadership workshops and offsites that translate strategy into practical leadership behaviors.

Employee Development & Growth

• Create individualized and team-level growth plans tied to career paths, skill gaps, and business priorities.
• Own the skills framework that defines what growth looks like at each level and in each function.

Experience: 5+ years of experience in learning and development, organizational development, or a related HR discipline, including at least 2 years designing leadership programs.

• Strong facilitation and coaching skills, with experience presenting to and coaching senior leaders.
• Comfort with data, including using engagement and performance metrics to prove program impact.
• Experience with an LMS or learning platform and familiarity with instructional design principles.
• Experience operating within a larger enterprise L&D function, including aligning program work to a broader function's strategy, is a plus.
