You’ll be joining an ambitious team within BESTSELLER’s PEOPLE organisation consisting of three dedicated trainers and four digital learning specialist that provide a range of support solutions to our business – each with diverse backgrounds and specialties, enabling us to meet the wide array of training needs that our business calls for. As a Learning & Development function, we continuously adapt our training solutions to ensure that they match the needs of our brands, group functions, countries, and cultures. 

In this setting, your role will be to take our digital Growth Management process to the next level – ensuring it supports meaningful development conversations and drives performance across all corners and levels of BESTSELLER, in close collaboration with dedicated and skilled colleagues across PEOPLE as well as the wider organisation.

YOUR ROLE

With the foundation already in place, we are now working on its digitalisation. Your job will be to take it further into the organisation, strengthen its practical value, and make sure it stays relevant and user-friendly over time.

You’ll be working at both the strategic and hands-on level – making sure this key process supports everyday development in a way that’s practical, people-focused, and aligned with business needs.
 
YOUR BENEFITS

• This is a role with real impact – you’ll help shape how development happens across a global organisation and see your work make a visible difference.
• You’ll have a high degree of freedom to operate, and a strong team of colleagues, who prioritise constructive feedback and knowledge sharing – and if you are empathetic, humorous, informal and able to ‘operate as designed’ with the programmes, you will fit right in with our company culture.
• BESTSELLER’s organisation is quite a playground for someone who enjoys continuously building relations with people across brands, functions, countries, and cultures! 

YOUR PROFILE
You bring experience implementing and refining development and performance processes in large organisations – and you know how to make those processes work in real life. You may have experience with project management, but what matters most is that you’re structured, strategic, and comfortable balancing the big picture with the day-to-day details.

• Have 5+ years of experience in Learning & Development, performance management, or leadership development

• Are comfortable working with a variety of stakeholders – from HR partners to senior leaders
• Understand how to align processes with business and people needs
• Communicate clearly and translate ideas into action
• Speak and write English fluently
• Have experience from retail – it’s not a requirement, but it will help you quickly understand the needs of a key part of our business.
