About the Role

The Learning Delivery Specialist IV (LDS IV) is the "Standard Bearer" for L&D excellence across the region. Operating as a high-level Individual Contributor, you will balance global strategy with local execution—owning the governance of training programs, leading cross-regional LOB launches, and driving tactical Learning Operations.

While you do not have direct reports, you will act as a functional leader: modeling excellence, mentoring regional training specialists, partnering with regional stakeholders, and ensuring that our support teams have a rock-solid foundation to deliver world-class customer experiences.

Your Impact in Role:

• STEP Governance: Own the methodology for 0–30 day interventions; audit the quality and impact of STEP initiatives across the region.

Strategic Partnership & Curriculum Ownership

• Stakeholder Management: Lead Line of Business (LOB) syncs at the executive leadership level. Build and maintain strong relationships with Operations, program, and regional stakeholders to provide data-driven insights.
• Process Optimization: Drive "Global ways of working," process implementation, and change management tool optimization across functions.

Functional Talent Development & Coaching

• Onboarding Owner: Own and execute the New LDS Onboarding program to integrate incoming L&D talent successfully.
• Mentorship: Act as a functional mentor to regional Learning Operations Specialists, coaching them on advanced training implementation, facilitation excellence, and Core Manager Qualities.
• Team Engagement: Maintain high team engagement and morale across the virtual/regional L&D footprint
• Business Intelligence & Project Management
• Data-Driven Insights: Build business intelligence around Training KPIs. Track and analyze the impact of the learning experience on agent performance, nesting, 0–30 day KPI performance, and attrition.
• Root Cause Analysis: Synthesize complex data sets to identify root causes for learning gaps and recommend targeted retraining or remediation.
• Project Leadership: Support, sponsor, and manage proposed L&D initiatives, experiments, and global projects to drive process efficiency.

The Experience You'll Bring:

• Experience: 3+ years of dedicated L&D experience, with a proven track record of managing cross-regional or global projects.
• Operations Savvy: 3+ years of experience within operational management, general management, or high-volume support environments (BPO/COE context preferred).
• Facilitation: Expert-level virtual and in-person facilitation skills (VILT/ILT).
• Tools: Advanced proficiency in Google Suite, LMS Management, and JIRA/Project Management tools.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Education: Master’s degree in L&D, Organizational Development, or a related field.
