Global Learning & Performance Enablement Lead (London based)

Realize your potential by joining the leading performance-driven advertising company. Great Place to Work® Certified employer in the UK.

As a Global Learning & Performance Enablement Lead on the People team in our London office, you’ll play a vital role in shaping how our people grow, lead, and thrive. 

Taboola is growing fast, expectations are rising, and the skills we need are shifting — driven by product evolution, commercial pressure and AI. To keep pace, we need a clearer, scalable system for how people build skills, grow, move and perform.

This role builds that system. You’ll turn capability needs into learning and performance experiences, pathways, tools and solutions that help people perform, grow and progress — and help the business future-proof talent. You’ll partner with HRBPs and leaders to understand capability gaps, then ship skill-based, data-informed learning and enablement solutions that support performance, mobility and succession.

To thrive in this role, you'll need to:

• Built learning, capability or enablement solutions that improved performance/progression
• Creative + curious builder mindset (prototyping, experimentation, AI-enabled formats)
• Comfortable with digital/AI/skills tools (or fast learner)
• Uses data to prioritise + measure
• Influences across regional + functional teams (e.g., Sales, R&D, Finance, People)
• Can facilitate as part of ecosystem adoption (not the main job)
• Hands-on builder comfortable with iteration + ambiguity
• Experience turning capability needs into concrete deliverables (pathways, onboarding, enablement, tools, frameworks or insights)

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience with learning strategy, performance enablement, mobility or succession
• Experience in ad-tech, product-led or commercial environments
• Exposure to high-growth, iterative or global environments

How you’ll make an impact:

• Build and own a skill-based learning and performance system that accelerates capability building, internal mobility, and execution across the business.
• Define critical skills for today and tomorrow, translating them into clear capability maps and learning pathways that support growth, readiness, and succession.
• Design learning anchored in real work, combining stretch, practice, feedback, and performance signals to shorten ramp time and improve effectiveness.
• Create and scale a modern learning ecosystem, blending digital, peer, manager-led, practice-based, and AI-enabled learning experiences.
• Leverage AI and data to personalise development, surface skills, track adoption, and continuously improve outcomes.
• Lead onboarding and enablement strategies that provide role clarity, business context, and faster performance ramp for ICs, managers, and leaders.
• Deliver practical, scalable assets including capability frameworks, onboarding playbooks, blended programmes, AI-driven nudges, and feedback loops.
• Enable leaders and managers to actively support development, reinforce learning, and drive adoption within their teams.
• Operate with a test-and-learn mindset, prototyping quickly, scaling what works, and evolving the system as business and AI needs change.
• Partner closely with HRBPs, leaders, and People Analytics to improve talent velocity, retention, and long-term organisational performance.
