About the team and the role

As Coach Team Lead you will lead a global team of specialist coaches focused on improving teammate capability, performance and business outcomes. Reporting to the Head of Learning and Development, you will be responsible for the performance, development, wellbeing and deployment of your coaching team.

Your focus will be on ensuring coaching delivers measurable, sustained improvements rather than simply increasing the number of coaching sessions delivered. You will build a flexible, highly capable coaching team that can respond to changing business priorities across teams and geographies.

Working closely with Operations, Team Leaders, Coaching Strategy & Standards, and Coach Capability & Certification, you will help ensure specialist coaching is targeted, effective and aligned with business needs.

What you will accomplish

• Lead and develop a team of specialist coaches, setting clear performance expectations, providing actionable feedback and supporting individual development, wellbeing and engagement.
• Deliver measurable improvements in teammate performance by directing coaching resources towards priority capability gaps and ensuring interventions lead to meaningful, sustained outcomes.
• Build a skilled and adaptable coaching team by ensuring all active coaches achieve and maintain certification, strengthening core coaching capabilities and developing specialist expertise aligned with business needs.
• Improve coaching quality and consistency through regular observation, calibration, practice and targeted development, ensuring high professional standards across the team.
• Use data and performance insights to drive decisions, evaluating coaching effectiveness, identifying development opportunities and demonstrating the connection between coaching interventions and sustained performance improvements.
• Optimise coaching capacity across teams and geographies, adapting deployment to changing business priorities while balancing coaching delivery, preparation, reinforcement and professional development.
• Partner with Operations, Team Leaders and cross-functional teams to align coaching with performance priorities, share insights on recurring capability gaps and inform improvements to coaching strategies and learning solutions.

What you will bring

• Advanced coaching and coach-development skills, with the ability to build team capability, maintain professional standards and support continuous improvement.
• Strong people-leadership and performance-management skills, including setting clear expectations, providing constructive feedback, developing others and managing performance fairly and effectively.
• The ability to interpret coaching-effectiveness data and performance insights, identify trends and translate findings into practical actions that improve outcomes.
• Knowledge of coaching certification, quality assurance and calibration practices, with an understanding of how to maintain consistent coaching standards.
• Confidence working with AI-enabled coaching and performance systems to support evidence-based decisions and improve coaching effectiveness.
• Sound judgment, adaptability and a focus on outcomes, with the ability to prioritise competing demands, respond to changing business needs and recognise when alternative interventions or escalation may be required.
• An inclusive and collaborative leadership approach, with the ability to build trust, influence stakeholders and work effectively across remote, culturally diverse teams and different geographies.
