What will you do?

A day in the life of the Manager, Leadership Development AMER at VF looks a little like this.

You work within Global Learning and Leadership Development as a senior individual contributor supporting the AMER region, while being deeply focused on a specific leadership population such as New Manager, Manager, or Director. You partner closely with business leaders, HRBPs, regional learning partners, and global portfolio and design teams. Your role centers on becoming a trusted learning lead for your assigned leadership level, responding to regional leadership development needs by leveraging and tailoring enterprise learning solutions, designing and facilitating bespoke experiences where needed, and ensuring leadership learning is grounded in real VF leadership challenges and expectations. You also contribute AMER leadership insights back into global curriculum and portfolio work, helping enterprise solutions evolve in practical, relevant ways.
