Manager, Project Management - WFS Content Design

Position Summary...

We are seeking an enablement design leader who brings discipline, clarity, and intent to how enablement experiences are constructed at scale. As the Manager of Enablement Design & Experience (Design), you are accountable for ensuring enablement solutions are thoughtfully designed, structurally sound, and capable of driving meaningful knowledge retention and skill application.Operating from clearly defined enablement strategy, learning outcomes, and constraints, you determine how enablement goals are achieved. You design the experience architecture — frameworks, formats, sequencing, and standards — that translate strategic intent into executable plans for delivery.

You approach re-work and refinement as part of the craft, maintaining rigorous version control, design integrity, and quality standards through frequent change.You actively evolve the enablement function by identifying and applying innovative adult learning methods that improve engagement, retention, and skill transfer — balancing experimentation with scalability and operational reality. While this role is not typically internal-customer facing, it is highly visible within the enablement organization. Your presence in meetings, working sessions, and reviews — as well as the quality of all artifacts and communications — reflects a high standard of professionalism, polish, and executive presence.About the Team:Our team leads high‑visibility initiatives that accelerate business performance and operational excellence. We partner closely with stakeholders across the organization to design assets, streamline project delivery, and ensure successful outcomes. This role plays a critical part in enabling consistent project execution and supporting organizational priorities.
