Description
Leadership Development Trainer
Salary up to £38,500
We’re looking for a Leadership Development Trainer to join our growing Organisational Development team and help strengthen leadership capability across Priory.
As our Organisational Development offering continues to grow, you’ll have the opportunity to play a key role in shaping and expanding our leadership development programmes. You’ll design, deliver and assess a range of learning, including ILM-accredited qualifications, workshops and psychometric profiling, working with managers and leaders at all levels.
This is a great opportunity for a qualified trainer, tutor or assessor who enjoys creating engaging learning experiences and making a real difference to how people lead and develop their teams.
This is a remote role, although you’ll need to be comfortable travelling across the UK occasionally, including occasional overnight stays.
Please note: Internally, this role is known as Leadership Development Specialist, and this is the job title stated in your contract.
What you'll be doing
You’ll play a key role in designing and delivering Priory’s leadership development offer, helping managers and leaders build the skills and confidence they need to lead effectively.
You’ll:
- Design, develop and deliver programmes including the Priory Leadership Programme and ILM-accredited qualifications in leadership, coaching and mentoring.
- Act as a tutor and assessor, supporting learners through their qualifications and providing constructive feedback to help them progress.
- Create and deliver engaging workshops, webinars and blended learning covering leadership, people management and coaching.
- Support our REACH Leadership Programme and deliver tailored development activity for Senior Leadership Teams, including psychometric profiling and team-building sessions.
- Deliver learning virtually and face-to-face across Priory, with occasional travel to sites across the UK, including some overnight stays.
- A key part of the role will be ensuring our programmes remain high quality and relevant. You’ll work closely with the L&OD team to evaluate learning, gather feedback and continually improve our leadership development offer.
