  • Manage all operational elements of program delivery including venue, vendors, communications, bookings, and production support; gather real-time and post-program feedback to identify opportunities.
  • Articulate success measures and design evaluation activities; provide insights from learner feedback and program data for improvement; support adoption of recommendations.
  • Build strong relationships and demonstrate influence with Capital Markets HR and business leaders; drive cross-functional collaboration to align programs with business objectives.

  • Demonstrated ability to manage full-lifecycle program work from strategic design to hands-on execution in a fast-paced environment.
  • Understanding of Capital Markets business and ability to connect learning initiatives to organizational objectives.
  • Willingness and ability to be physically present in downtown Toronto for in-person program execution, along with occasional travel to NYC as required (valid passport required).
  • Excellent technical proficiency with Microsoft Office, WebEx, and Learning Management Systems.
