Role Overview
Condor is the largest digital transformation programme Boots has ever undertaken. Giving better tools and efficient processes to our teams is one of our main objectives and so ensuring that everyone who is impacted by the change is properly equipped is key.
Working alongside the Condor Change team, the Condor Training Manager will build an understanding of the expected impact on all our teams and use this knowledge and insight to create a functional and technical training strategy and plan for all impacted teams.
You will build strong partnerships with the central L&D Partner and HR Business Partner to align the functional training strategy you have created with the overall L&D plan and People Plan for Digital, ensuring that creation and delivery timeframes complement one another across the board.
The Condor Training Manager is accountable for designing all elements of training for all teams impacted by Condor, for all teams both in support office (likely to be around 1000 people across Digital, Marketing, Supply Chain and Retail Operations) and right across our stores estate.
The Condor Training Manager will be responsible for ensuring a blended solution of quality technical and functional learning materials and resources are built and deployed effectively for all impacted teams, tracking and reporting on progress, highlighting risks and actions required as needed to inform and meet project milestones and KPIs.
This role, as an integral part of the Condor project team, will report to the Head of Business Transition within the Digital structure with a dotted reporting line to the Head of Functional & Transformation Capability in the central Learning & Development (L&D) team, to ensure alignment with wider Boots L&D best practice, platforms and techniques.
