Global Training Content Manager

This role can be done from home

Building the world’s leading sound experience starts with the experience we provide for our people. That’s why we’ve been distributed from the start: initially between offices in Boston & Santa Barbara, and now with additional offices around the globe. This role can be done from any of our offices across the United States or remotely from home. It’s about impact, not location.

The Global Training Content Creation Manager owns the creation, quality, and delivery of world-class training and educational content for a global organization. This role will set and drive the educational content strategy while personally building high-impact learning assets.

Managers on the Sonos Global Education Team will lead with transparency, empathy, and creativity. They will create a working environment that fosters diversity of perspectives while acting as a group to achieve goals.
