People Development Partner
People Development Partner
Join a momentum-building team as investment in People Development programs ramps up at Rapid7! You want in? We want you!
Are you looking for…
- Significant business impact, with visibility to employees at all levels of the organization? Check.
- An open door for “next practice” solutions to meet learning and development needs? Check.
- The chance to work with a hyper growth company in the white-hot IT security sector where employees are empowered to take their career to the next level? Check.
The People Development (L&D) Partner will collaborate with People Development and the broader People Strategy team to create and scale learning for all employees at Rapid7, with a focus on two primary programs: 1) Soft Skills training, and 2) eLearning. You will be a driving force for both.
Priority #1: you are passionate about continuous learning—from soup to nuts—and the idea of creating scalable learning opportunities for our employees is what gets you out of bed in the morning.
Priority #2: you’re excited to tackle learning from entirely new perspectives with a highly motivated, high impact team. If we fail, we fail fast, and try again! We’re an ATD Best Award winning team--because we take disciplined risks! Following Best Practice is not good enough. We aim to be the Best Practice.
YOU’RE DEFINITELY THIS…
- a whiz at engaging learners,
- pretty awesome at both curriculum design and ILT delivery,
- passionate for continuous learning and “next” practices in the field,
- hungry for a fast-paced, change-oriented environment (the ability to pivot is essential),
- super organized and detail-oriented,
- so awesome at relationships that stakeholders are lining up to partner with you,
- not afraid to tackle tasks independently; however, “collaboration” is your middle name, and
- super talented at both oral and written communication skills...
SO THAT YOU CAN DO THIS...
- Build momentum around our soft skills learning programs, from end to end, including all stages of curriculum design and delivery of instructor-led trainings (both in-person and remote). This includes executing on current content as well as developing new material based on needs analyses.
- Continue to lead our eLearning initiatives--everything from managing license requests to increasing platform utilization, and enabling newcomers on how to get the most out of our eLearning offerings.
- Consult with managers as we increase accountability for learning programs on individual teams.
- Utilize Rapid7’s learning management system to manage program logistics when necessary.
- Research, initiate, and manage third-party vendor relationships.
You love to look at learning programs with a new lens, and you have a desire to scale our employee learning in the years ahead. You embrace the opportunity to try new learning technologies, and last, but not least, you understand why employee learning modalities and differentiated instruction are relevant in this role. The role may require minimal travel (less than 5%).
Additional qualifications include:
- 2+ years of program management experience, including 2+ years of curriculum development and ILT facilitation/teaching.
- Previous LMS experience helpful, but not at all required.
- Proficient with MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint.
- Bachelor’s degree required.
