We never stop working to find new, innovative ways to make that possible.
Job Overview
Come join the Sales Excellence organization as the Early Career & Learning Events Manager, a highly strategic role responsible for building two critical engines of sales performance and talent sustainability:
A best-in-class Early Career Program (ECP) that serves as a durable succession and talent pipeline for the sales organization
A portfolio of high-impact learning events that transform moments like Sales Kick-Offs, Leadership Offsites, and flagship trainings into memorable, outcome-driven experiences
This role sits at the intersection of talent strategy, learning design, and sales performance. It is accountable for attracting, developing, and graduating top early-career talent into the sales organization, while also elevating how sellers and leaders engage in large-scale learning moments.
The ideal candidate is both a systems thinker and an operator — someone who can architect scalable programs, set a high talent bar, and deliver complex initiatives with excellence. This role is critical to reducing long-term reliance on external labor, increasing seller productivity, strengthening retention, and reinforcing a culture of merit-based growth and continuous learning.

Create a playbook to transform traditional in-person trainings into highly engaging, memorable learning events using interactive formats, technology, and experiential design

Track KPIs including retention, tenure, productivity, revenue impact, and post-program performance
Measure event ROI and learning effectiveness, conducting post-event and post-program analyses
Continuously iterate and improve programs based on data, feedback, and evolving business needs
