## Description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

We are looking for a Senior People Program Manager to own the scaling of Anduril's leadership development, team coaching, and manager effectiveness programs.

**Responsibilities**

- Own the transition from pilot to scale for Anduril's leadership and people development programs, including group coaching, manager and high-potential development, team onsites, leadership summits, and team effectiveness offerings.

- Build and manage the multi-year program roadmap, defining what a centralized leadership development offering looks like at Anduril by 2027 and the milestones to get there.

- Serve as the primary operator and project manager for all people development initiatives, using structured briefs, trackers, and stakeholder communication to keep work on schedule.

- Guide team’s evaluation of current pilots with a critical eye: determine what is delivering value and what needs refinement. Use qualitative feedback and quantitative data to inform those calls.

- Identify and evaluate technology solutions that can accelerate people development at scale, from coaching platforms to learning management systems.

- Help facilitate onsite and offsite experiences, owning the operational end while, when needed, leading facets of team development sessions, leadership workshops, and cross-functional summits.

- Present program strategy, progress, and outcomes to senior leadership with clarity and confidence.

- Partner across the People org and with business leaders to understand development needs, tailor programming, and build buy-in for new offerings.

- Scope the resourcing model: determine when and how to build out a bench of facilitators, coaches, or vendors to support scaled delivery.

**Required Qualifications**

- 10+ years of experience in people development, leadership development, organizational development, or program management within a People/HR function.

- Demonstrated experience deploying leadership or manager development programs at scale within a large, matrixed organization.

- Strong project management instincts: you build structure in ambiguous environments and drive complex, cross-functional work to completion without waiting to be told what to do.

- Executive presence and communication skills that allow you to present confidently to senior leaders, facilitate workshops, and craft compelling narratives around program vision and outcomes.

- You are both high ownership and low ego, approaching everything with strong outcome orientation and high humility.

- Comfort with data: you can interpret program feedback, build a case for investment, and adjust your approach based on what the numbers say.

- You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and get energy from building something from the ground up rather than maintaining the status quo.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Background in coaching, executive coaching, or leadership coaching (ICF certification or equivalent is a plus).

- Experience designing and facilitating team coaching, offsites, leadership workshops, or similar group development experiences.

- Experience at high-growth technology or defense companies that have navigated rapid organizational scaling.

- Familiarity with people development technology platforms and their integration into broader HR ecosystems.

- Experience building the business case for and standing up a people development function or center of excellence from scratch.

**Benefits** Anduril offers top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including a comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees) that ensures you’re supported in health, recovery, and whatever comes next.
