Learning & Development Principal

Who You Will Be Working With

At PMG, our People & Culture (P&C) team is focused on building an environment where people can do their best work while helping the business grow in meaningful, sustainable ways. As a Learning and Development Principal, you’ll partner with a cross-functional group spanning Talent Enablement, Learning & Development, People Experience, and Culture to design learning that is both practical and impactful. This team works closely with leaders and teams across PMG to strengthen leadership capability, support business priorities, and scale how we develop talent. In this role, you’ll be a trusted thought partner—bringing structure, clarity, and perspective to how PMG approaches learning, problem-solving, and long-term growth.

What You Will Be Doing

As a Learning and Development Principal, you’ll design and deliver consultative learning that helps PMG teams think more strategically, communicate more clearly, and solve increasingly complex business problems. Sitting at the intersection of strategy, learning design, and facilitation, your work will shape how employees approach business transformation, decision-making, and executive-level problem solving in a fast-moving marketing and technology environment.  This is an individual contributor role with high visibility and influence. You will not manage people, but you will play a meaningful role in shaping how people think, learn, and lead at PMG.

You will:

• Design end-to-end learning experiences focused on consultative capabilities, including strategic thinking, structured problem solving, business transformation, decision-making frameworks, executive communication, and storytelling
• Translate proven consulting methodologies into practical, usable tools that are relevant to PMG’s clients, operating model, and proprietary technology
• Develop high-quality learning assets such as facilitation guides, slide-based frameworks, case-based exercises, simulations, and reinforcement materials
• Facilitate live learning experiences for small and large groups, both virtually and in person, with confidence and credibility
• Partner closely with senior leaders and People & Culture stakeholders to identify capability gaps and design learning that directly supports business priorities
• Leverage emerging technology and AI-enabled learning solutions to enhance how learning is delivered and scaled
• Continuously refine content based on feedback, outcomes, and evolving business needs, treating learning as a product rather than a one-time program

What You Will Bring

• 7+ years of experience designing, developing, and delivering learning and development programs within a large, global consulting environment (e.g., McKinsey, Bain, BCG)
• A strong foundation in strategy, learning design, and facilitation
• Demonstrated experience designing and facilitating learning related to:
• Strategy and structured problem solving
• Business transformation and change leadership
• Decision-making frameworks and prioritization
• Executive presence, communication, and storytelling
• The ability to synthesize complex concepts and teach them clearly to diverse audiences
• Strong facilitation presence, with the ability to lead senior-level discussions and adapt in real time
• High standards for content quality, particularly in slide-based storytelling and curriculum development
• Comfort owning programs end-to-end and operating effectively in ambiguity
• A practical, outcomes-oriented mindset with a focus on application and impact

Additional Preferred Skills:

• Experience teaching non-consultants or highly cross-functional teams
• Exposure to professional services, marketing, or technology environments post-consulting
• Familiarity with adult learning principles or enablement operating models
