About the Role

We’re hiring a Senior Program Manager, Talent Development to design and deliver experiences that help Notinos grow, connect, and lead. You’ll own some of our most visible programs: from onboarding to performance enablement to leadership offsites.

What you’ll achieve:

• Design and deliver Team Learning Moments that build meaningful connection and spark growth across the company

• Design and continuously improve the global onboarding experience (for the first 90 days), serving as strategist while overseeing facilitation and program logistics.

• Partner on leadership offsites, ensuring strategy, content, and facilitation deliver lasting impact.

• Bring learning into the flow of work by creating in-the-moment, just-in-time learning opportunities.

• Stand up and operationalize quarterly Talent Review conversations, building the tools, comms, and facilitation that make discussions efficient and actionable; design and embed succession planning processes that strengthen our critical talent bench.

• Own and evolve manager development across key personas — including new managers, experienced people leaders, remote/hybrid managers, and future leaders. You’ll lead our flagship Manager Studio program and design learning journeys that align to Notion’s leadership expectations and strengthen our critical talent bench.

• Shape and scale our overall Learning & Growth strategy, ensuring programs ladder to business needs and culture.

Skills You'll Need to Bring:

• Strategic orientation. You can zoom out to see the full system of employee development and design programs that connect across it.

• Stakeholder partnership. You build trust and influence with peers, leaders, and executives.

• Communication. You write clearly, structure enablement content, and adapt messaging to different audiences.

• Continuous improvement. You ship small, high-leverage changes that compound over time.

• Executive credibility. You can advise and partner with senior leaders, particularly around leadership development.

• AI-native mindset. You go beyond using AI for speed. You prototype, experiment, and imagine new ways AI can power learning, enablement, and employee growth. You balance innovation with judgment to build thoughtful, human-centered programs.

Nice to Haves:

• Experience building leadership development programs at scale.

• Familiarity with onboarding, engagement, and performance management programs in high-growth companies.
