Leadership Development & Engagement Lead

Amex GBT is a place where colleagues find inspiration in travel as a force for good and – through their work – can make an impact on our industry. We’re here to help our colleagues achieve success and offer an inclusive and collaborative culture where your voice is valued.

Great leaders create great teams, and we want to help them do both. As part of our Centre of Expertise for Learning, Leadership Development & Engagement, you’ll shape how we grow leaders and listen to colleagues and show how the two work together. You’ll work closely with senior stakeholders, HR, and technology partners on a role that’s strategic, varied, and visible.

• Own our colleague engagement strategy from end to end, including the bi-annual survey and onboarding and exit surveys

• Lead survey design, delivery, and governance around the world, working with HR, technology, and external providers

• Turn survey results into clear, actionable insights for leaders and HR teams, and keep improving our methodology

• Link engagement results to leadership performance, and show where leadership investment will make the biggest difference

• Flex across colleague and talent development work as priorities shift, including facilitating sessions and supporting programs

What We´re Looking For

• Experience in leadership development, engagement, or talent roles within a large, cross-border organization.

• Hands-on experience designing, delivering, and acting on colleague engagement surveys

• Program and project management experience, with the ability to run multiple large initiatives at once
