The Role

Reporting to the Vice President, Talent Management, you will oversee a team of three Learning and Talent Development Partners (training facilitators) and manage the company's LMS (eLogic).

Initially, we'll look to you to assess our overall needs and existing programs, and then develop a comprehensive strategy for developing the leaders we'll need as we double in size.

What's in It for You

Build something new
If you are currently idling your engine in a maintenance role, this position will be a breath of fresh air. Your mandate will be to create a new strategy, and you will find the organization enthusiastic about leadership development.

High visibility
This is a big role with visibility at just about all levels across our company. Your internal customers and partners will include the executive committee, business division leaders and team members, HR business partners, the L&TD team and others.

Professional development
With significant growth ahead of us, a strong performer might take on additional responsibilities, advance within Talent Management organization, or even pursue other career paths within AMN. In fact, this position is open because the incumbent was promoted. If you are coming from outside healthcare, you will enjoy the stability of an industry that has been growing, even during challenging economic times.

Great environment
Ours is a high-energy, fast-paced environment -- sometimes those coming from a hospital dynamic or from outside healthcare are surprised at how fast we move -- but, it's also a collaborative environment filled with good people who care about the work they do. You can feel good knowing that the service we provide is critical to the industry, but also to the team of people at AMN providing it.

Award-winning employer
But don't just take our word for it! Here are a few of the recent awards we've earned:
  • AMN Healthcare is among a select group of healthcare staffing firms to receive Joint Commission certification. We first received the Gold Seal of ApprovalTM for Staffing Companies in June 2006.
  • In 2017 AMN's CEO Susan Salka was named to Staffing Industry Analysts' list of Global Power 100 Women in Staffing.
  • Becker's Hospital Review named AMN Healthcare to its 2016 list of "150 Great Places to Work in Healthcare."
  • In 2016 we were recognized as one of Achievers' 50 Most Engaged Workplaces™ in North America for the fourth time.
Excellent compensation
In addition to a competitive salary and bonus incentive program, we offer comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision plans; a 401(k) plan with company match; flexible spending plans; continuing education benefits; great employee discounts; and more.

Keys to Success

Our senior executives are behind the initiative to develop a leadership training and development program. At the same time, the new program will be very different from what people are used to. You will leverage your influencing skills to lead people from "theoretical" support to "actual" support. To do that, you will need to:
  • Help people understand the vision and see the value of the new programs
  • Develop research-based business cases to help justify investments
  • Establish -- and deliver to -- metrics that demonstrate effectiveness
As with many positions at AMN, success will require true grit, persistence and creativity. For example, you may identify a specific business unit leader with a need, and partner with that person to pilot and prove a program. That means the programs will need to be engaging, but they have to be much more than flash.

You'll work with executives and business unit leaders who are experienced and sharp, and you'll need to be proactive about establishing rapport quickly, demonstrating a genuine and authentic commitment to helping them achieve goals.

In addition, to excel in this role, you will:
  • Complement your strong sense of accountability with initiative and willingness to take the bull by the horns when necessary.
  • Delegate effectively, but also remain willing to roll up your sleeves in a relatively flat organization without much hierarchy or bureaucracy.
  • Leverage organizational savvy, such as understanding different leader's "levers" and adjusting your communication accordingly.
  • Combine an analytical mindset with creativity in achieving objectives and solving problems.
