Leadership Development Partner at atNorth
Most leadership roles let you improve a program. This one lets you shape how a fast-growing Nordic company develops its leaders.
atNorth is scaling quickly across five countries, and our leaders are building something new while they lead it. They need development that fits their real situations: a first-time manager taking over a team at a new site, or a senior leader handling growth, change and complexity at the same time. As our Leadership Development Partner, you'll be the person they turn to.
You'll design and deliver our leadership programs from first-time people managers to senior leaders. You'll coach leaders one to one, facilitate cohorts and forums, and connect leaders across borders so they learn from each other. You'll also help shape how we assess, promote and plan succession for our leaders, so your work will influence who leads atNorth in the future.
You'll work closely with the Head of Leadership, Learning & Development, our P&C Managers and the Learning & Development team. You'll have real ownership: you choose facilitators and coaches, adjust programs based on what the data shows, and recommend leader promotions. If you're an experienced leadership developer who wants to see the results of your work, this is the role for you.
Key responsibilities:
• Lead and deliver the atNorth Leadership Development program for all leaders, along with customised and on-demand leadership training modules (incl. training for employee satisfaction and wellbeing)
• Design and run onboarding cohorts for first-time people managers and help them build a strong foundation from day one
• Provide 1:1 coaching for selected leaders
• Co-own and facilitate the atNorth leaders’ forums and Leadership Hub (self service) from content development, agenda setting to follow-up actions
• Use participant feedback, outcome data and assessment tools (such as 360 feedback) to continuously improve our programs
Your profile:
• You have at least +7 years of proven track record/experience from a similar role
• You have a relevant Masters Degree in organizational psychology, HR, education or a related field, or equivalent experience
• You have solid experience designing and facilitating leadership development programs, ideally in a multi-country organization
• You're a skilled coach, comfortable with both 1:1 leadership coaching and group coaching; an ICF (ACC/PCC) or equivalent certification is a strong plus
• You have hands-on experience with leadership assessment tools such as 360 feedback, Insights Discovery / DISC or Hogan
• You build trust quickly with leaders at every level, from new managers to senior executives, across cultures and countries
• You combine strong business acumen with a good understanding of core People processes such as succession, promotion and performance dialogues
• You communicate clearly and convincingly in speech, in writing and visually, and you can turn complex ideas into simple concepts and processes
• You manage multiple cohorts and programs at once, and you speak and write fluent in English
