  • Align with Sales Enablement and support efforts focused on the continued adoption of Intelsat's sales methodology. Serve as L&D lead for global sales organization, providing expertise based on established best practices in adult learning principles and influencing key outcomes.
  • Build relationships with Intelsat leaders, HR Business Partners, and internal subject matter experts, working collaboratively to align training efforts to company and departmental goals.
  • Lead in the identification and relationship management of best-in-class external vendors providing services in support of training initiatives.
  • Assess the impact of learning strategies, initiatives, and events. Utilize best practices in adult learning assessment, combined with survey and data analysis, and through collaboration with the HRIS Analytic Team.
  • Assist with the design, implementation, and maintenance of Intelsat's learning and development content on the internal intranet site and LMS: focusing on supplemental learning resources, one-to-many resources, etc.


You should have:

  • Minimum three (3) years' experience in:
    • Adult learning principles;
    • Project management;
    • Curriculum design and eLearning design techniques;
    • Classroom and virtual facilitation.

  • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Psychology, Organizational Development or a related field
  • Effective oral and written communications skills - ability to communicate "up and down" Intelsat
  • The ability to work in a multinational multi-cultural environment
  • The ability to be flexible and remain calm under pressure in a fast-paced environment with competing priorities


It would be nice if you had:

  • Experience with eLearning development tools (Articulate, Camtasia, Captivate, etc.)
  • Change management experience in a fast-paced, changing environment
  • Master's degree in Human Resources or a related field
  • Certification(s) in StrengthsFinder, MBTI, or similar assessment tools
