Head Of Organisational Development

Há 1 mês


Coimbra, Portugal Canonical Tempo inteiro

Help define the future of the workplace, with a global, growing open source software company that is a pioneer in remote-first collaboration and employment. We are well known in tech circles as the publisher of Ubuntu, the preferred OS for cloud computing, containers, software engineering and AI/ML data science. With almost every team remote by default, Canonical sets the pace on the 21st-century digital workplace.
We're small for a platform vendor, but profitable. Our goal is to be the world's best, not biggest, global software company.
This is an opportunity for a person with outstanding leadership, organisation and intellect, to build our Organisational Development team that develops and harmonises our management practices. We are now 1,000+ colleagues across 70+ countries. We would like to create a new team to focus on organisational development - specifically to deepen our insights and effectiveness as a remote-first and globally distributed organisation.
However, we know that being effective remotely requires discipline and good habits, and we would like to invest in the research needed to understand that, the training and policymaking which enable it, and the selection mechanisms that ensure consistency of behaviours. We'd like to understand what really makes a distributed, remote-first workplace work. We think we're pretty good at this, remote-first for almost 20 years, but we know there is a lot still to understand, and the frontier of possibility continues to move outward.
We'd like to invest in research, analytics and tooling which raises the bar even further for remote collaboration, organisation and leadership. Most importantly though we'd like to invest in training and bi-directional communications to ensure that our management team are consistent in setting and maintaining expectations in every team, in every time zone.
So first and foremost this is a role for someone who:
wants to develop managers and leaders,
wants to set the pace for distributed company management, who has the drive and the energy and the leadership skills to make that happen across hundreds of teams, and who has ideas to bring to the table for experimentation and evolution.
You will lead one part of a wider People team, a cross-disciplinary group of organisational psychologists, engineers, statistics / analytics experts, talent science and employee relations specialists. We are recruiting globally, and believe we are bringing in outstanding new colleagues in a way that is fearlessly global. Naturally, they come from a wide range of backgrounds, norms and experiences, and our goal in setting up the Org Dev team is simply to lead the leaders to a position of consistent clarity on who we are, how we roll, and how that changes over time.
Location: This role can be held anywhere in the Europe, Middle East or African time zones.
What your day will look like:
Develop and implement an inspiring and comprehensive talent development and culture strategy
Host our ongoing discussion about management practices, skills, habits and perspectives
Deliver an exceptional experience for aspiring and existing leaders who want to become trusted Canonical managers
Own the renewal and activation of values internally and externally
Create and implement leadership performance indicators and metrics
Design, develop, and run management curricula
Own our management skills matrix for performance management, talent assessment, succession planning, mentorship, virtual learning and career development.
Lead engagement survey focus groups and change initiatives
Set up a company learning framework for training
Build and manage a new team of organisational development specialists
Analyze data and leading trends to better understand career development
Own Canonical's personal development budget, currently US$ 2,000 per person
What we are looking for in you:
An exceptional academic track record
Excellent writing and communication skills
Experience relevant to have a clear position on remote work and management
Strong views on the key conditions that create high performing teams
Ability to lead, create strategy, develop plans, communicate plans, and drive change across a company
Analytical and problem solving skills, for data driven decision making
Experience in people management and being accountable for a budget
Ability to travel twice, sometimes four times a year, for one or two week company events
What we offer you:
Your base pay will depend on various factors including your geographical location, level of experience, knowledge and skills. In addition to the benefits above, certain roles are also eligible for additional benefits and rewards including annual bonuses. Our compensation philosophy is to ensure equity right across our global workforce.
In addition to a competitive base pay, we provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals. Please note that additional benefits may apply depending on the work location and, for more information on these, you can ask in the later stages of the recruitment process.
Fully remote working environment - we've been working remotely since 2004
Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year
Annual compensation review
Recognition rewards
Annual holiday leave
Parental Leave
Employee Assistance Programme
Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues at 'sprints'
Priority Pass for travel and travel upgrades for long haul company events
