Summary:

We are currently seeking a Sr. Program Manager, Talent Management to join our growing Talent Development & Learning Team. This role will be located in one of our Canadian hubs (Toronto, Vancouver, or Calgary).

What your team does:

The Talent Development & Learning team helps fuel Clio’s growth by bridging today’s skills with tomorrow’s potential. We design high-impact learning solutions that empower our people to excel now, while building the strategic programs—from leadership development to talent systems and coaching—that support our talent at different phases of their career journey.

What you’ll work on:

Program Ownership: Lead the execution, and continuous improvement of core talent management programs, inclusive of our annual talent systems cycle (feedback, goal-setting, talent reviews, calibration, and development planning), career development, and succession planning process.
Systems Architecture: Work with functional leaders in Total Rewards, People Systems & Analytics, Talent Development, and People Business Partners to design, improve, and optimize a coherent and impactful set of talent management programs that elevate the performance and development of all Clions. Operate with a systems lens, designing programs as interconnected rather than isolated parts.
Strategic Execution: Translate leadership decisions into system design recommendations and project plans. You help us transition from “problem” to “solution” to “global launch.”
Operational Excellence: Lead end-to-end project management and maintenance for talent management programs, including our annual talent systems cycle. You are responsible for high quality execution, risk mitigation, and clear cross-functional coordination.
PBP & Manager Enablement: Serve as the primary partner to People Business Partners and enablement provider for people managers. You build the playbooks, training, and FAQs they need to feel supported through our talent management programs.
Senior Leadership Influence: Convert talent data into actionable insights for senior leaders. Use these narratives to drive alignment across Total Rewards, People Systems & Analytics, People Business Partners, and business leaders.
Change Management: Drive adoption through audience-specific communications at key milestones that explain the why and how behind every talent management shift.

What you bring:

Scale: 8+ years of experience leading talent programs for organizations of 2,000+ employees, including managing/overseeing performance management and talent planning.
Product Mindset: Proven ability to apply systems thinking to HR; you see talent systems as interconnected parts rather than isolated processes.
Hybrid Operator: Able to move seamlessly between strategic program design and project management execution.
Influence: Expert-level communication and the ability to drive alignment across COEs without formal authority.

Bonus points if you have:

Experience leading Talent Management programs in hypergrowth tech.
Experience with Workday HRIS.
Demonstrated interest in elevating your craft using AI.

This is a new role.
