Ultimately, you will contribute to building a strong learning culture in the company and support business leaders in developing high-performing teams.

• Design, develop, and deliver engaging training programs, ensuring a high level of interaction, practical application, and long-term knowledge retention;
• Facilitate training sessions and workshops, including facilitation-style discussions when needed;
• Build effective and modern learning solutions using interactive formats (e.g. e-learning, microlearning, short impactful sessions instead of long formats);
• Assess training effectiveness, measure impact, and continuously improve learning approaches;
• Support and coach line managers in identifying development needs, building development plans, and implementing learning solutions;
• Act as a trusted advisor to business leaders on all topics related to learning and development;
• Support the preparation and delivery of internal events, training sessions, and conferences, ensuring high quality of content and engagement;
• Promote and drive the implementation of Group learning initiatives and programs at local level;
• Collaborate closely with the Regional Talent team to ensure alignment with Group learning priorities and standards;
• Explore trends in learning and development and implement relevant, modern solutions within the organization;
• Manage the training budget, ensure efficient allocation of resources, and optimize learning investments;
• Identify and engage external training providers aligned with Ferrero culture, ensuring quality of content and delivery;
• Manage and administer local LMS (Colaborator), ensure effective use of global LMS platforms, and maintain learning data and reporting.

About You:

• 4+ years of experience in Training & Development, Learning, or HR (preferably in FMCG or a similarly dynamic environment);
• Ukrainian – fluent, English – upper-intermediate or higher;
• Strong experience in designing and delivering training programs (from concept to implementation);
• Experience in public speaking, facilitation, and conducting training sessions;
• Experience working with LMS Colaborator platform or other platforms and digital learning tools is an advantage;
• Experience using interactive training tools (e.g., Mentimeter, AhaSlides, or similar platforms);
• Strong understanding of learning methodologies, competency development, and training effectiveness measurement;
• Ability to manage multiple initiatives and translate business needs into practical learning solutions;
• Proactive, positive, and solution-oriented mindset with a genuine interest in people development;
