Source and manage subject matter experts (SMEs), authors, and trainers to deliver high-quality, client-specific content. 

Oversee project P&L, timelines, budgets, and deliverables to ensure alignment with client expectations and internal standards. 

Maintain strong relationships with enterprise clients, ensuring satisfaction and identifying opportunities for future engagement. 

Stay current on industry trends, learning technologies, and enterprise training needs to inform solution design. 

Represent Pearson at client meetings, industry events, and internal strategy sessions. 

Qualifications

• Ability to travel up to 10% for client meetings and industry events. 

Desired Skills 

• Familiarity with course creation platforms (e.g., Articulate 360, LMS systems), video production, text authoring and live training formats. 

• Analytical mindset with the ability to assess client needs and translate them into effective learning solutions.
