Sr. Retail Learning & Development Program Manager

Vuori makes premium performance apparel inspired by the active Coastal California lifestyle; an integration of fitness, surf, sport, and art. Breaking down the boundaries of traditional activewear, we are a new perspective on performance apparel.

You'll play a pivotal role in evolving Vuori's retail leader learning journey. You'll own our onboarding experience end-to-end while being a key player in building the ongoing, always on development ecosystem that keeps General Managers and Assistant Managers growing as the business scales. You bring deep retail experience, a builder's mindset, and a modern perspective on how leaders learn in fast-paced store environments. You'll test, iterate, and scale high-impact learning experiences that are practical for the sales floor, reinforced by leaders, and measurable in readiness and performance. You'll report to the Director, Retail Learning & Development and partner closely with the Senior Manager of Retail Learning, cross-functional program managers, People & Culture, and Retail leadership.

• Own and program-manage retail leader onboarding and ongoing learning, including San Diego onboarding week execution and learner progress tracking with District Managers and People and Culture Business Partners.
• Continuously improve the onboarding and learning framework, recommending the right modalities, activities, and resources to support effective learning.

• Facilitate virtual and in-person training sessions as necessary for onboarding programs and other retail L&D programs as needed.
• Experiment with innovative approaches to learning that drive engagement and align with our shared traditions and brand.
• Support the growth and development of the Retail Learning team as it continues to scale.

Who you are:

• Proven ability to build, launch, and scale retail onboarding or ongoing learning programs across a distributed store network.
• Proven ability to drive change and adoption across distributed retail teams in a fast-changing environment.
• Skilled in creating blended learning experiences (workshops, peer learning, self-directed learning, and on-the-job practice) that work in a fast-paced retail environment.
• Demonstrated ability to design end-to-end learning journeys (not just single events), including reinforcement and manager activation.
• Acts as a strategic leader within the team; connects learning strategy and approach across programs and the business.
