Program Manager, Talent Management - Employee Experience

As the leading global type 1 diabetes (T1D) research and advocacy organization, Breakthrough T1D helps make everyday life with T1D better while driving toward cures. We invest in the most promising research to turn ideas into life-changing therapies and devices. We work with government, regulatory officials, and insurance companies to address issues that impact the T1D community -- breaking through barriers that limit access to care worldwide. We provide resources and guidance that makes it easier to live and thrive with T1D. This is more than a moment -- we're empowering a movement for the T1D community. Share your support and help educate and empower individuals facing type 1 diabetes.

Our mission is to improve lives today and tomorrow by accelerating life changing breakthroughs to treat, prevent and ultimately, cure T1D and its complications. Always, we are guided by a single purpose: As we drive towards curing type 1 diabetes, we help make everyday life better for the people who face it.

At Breakthrough T1D, we count all steps within the end-to-end talent lifecycle as part of the employee experience; this includes but is not limited to candidate, new hire onboarding, internal mobility, ongoing engagement, and exiting the organization. Breakthrough T1D is looking for someone to design, develop, deploy, and maintain a new Employee Experience program. This role will work closely with the AVP of Talent Management. The focus of the role is building an employee experience program that helps Breakthrough T1D remain the employer of choice for those looking to improve lives by accelerating life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent, and treat T1D and its complications.

This isn't primarily an employee-events role. Employee experience here is a program discipline. You'll help define what a better employee experience should look like, turn that direction into a multi-year plan, design the interventions and resources to support it, launch them across the organization, and measure whether they worked.

As an Employee Experience Program Manager at Breakthrough T1D, you will play a pivotal role in creating a positive and inclusive work environment for our employees. You’ll design and implement programs that enhance employee satisfaction, foster collaboration, and promote a sense of purpose within our organization. If you’re passionate about employee engagement and making a difference, we’d love to hear from you!
