4. Learning NPS & Learner Experience

• Design and operationalise the Learning Net Promoter Score (NPS) measurement framework across all delivery modalities.
• Analyse NPS trends, verbatim feedback, and satisfaction data to surface systemic quality issues and prioritise improvements.

• Stay current on emerging learning technology trends (AI-powered learning, adaptive pathways, xAPI/LRS) and bring relevant innovations to the function.

6. Stakeholder Management & Governance

• Build trusted relationships with HRBPs, CoE leads, and other stakeholders to understand evolving learning needs and communicate fulfilment status.
• Represent learning operations in HR governance forums, providing regular performance updates and exception reporting.
