Talent & Performance Coach

Some people see performance; do you see potential? At YTL UK, we believe great organisations grow from within. That's why we're looking for a Talent & Performance Coach to help colleagues realise their potential, strengthen performance and prepare for future opportunities.

This is a unique opportunity for an experienced coach, talent professional or leadership development specialist to work across the Group, supporting colleagues at every stage of their career journey. From emerging talent and future leaders to experienced managers and executives, you'll help people build confidence, capability and readiness for what's next.

Working as part of our Workforce Development team, you'll deliver meaningful coaching, facilitate development centres, provide talent insight and support the practical application of our Performance Framework. You'll help managers have better development conversations, identify future talent and make evidence-based decisions about growth, progression and succession.

This is far more than programme delivery. You'll influence how we identify, develop and retain our future capability across YTL UK. Alongside the opportunity to influence talent and performance across YTL UK, you'll work with talented colleagues, partner with senior leaders and help shape the future capability of our organisation. Because when people grow, businesses thrive.

What you'll do 

You will:

• deliver high-quality one-to-one and group coaching for leaders, future leaders and colleagues with potential
• design and facilitate development centres, talent programmes and career development interventions
• use assessment tools, diagnostics and coaching conversations to generate meaningful insight and development plans
• support managers to build confidence in performance, feedback and development conversations
• analyse talent and performance data to identify trends, opportunities and succession risks
• facilitate business performance review standardisation to ensure fair, transparent and clear ratings
• contribute to talent reviews, succession planning and internal mobility activity
• work with senior leaders, HR Business Partners and Workforce Development colleagues to shape practical development solutions
• help create a culture where development, growth and continuous improvement are part of everyday work.

What you'll need 

You will:

• be an experienced coach and talent development professional who is passionate about helping people achieve their potential
• bring expertise in coaching, talent development and performance improvement, with the credibility to influence managers and senior leaders on development, progression and succession decisions
• be confident using coaching, assessment and development approaches to generate meaningful insight and translate it into practical action
• be comfortable working with data as well as people, using evidence to inform decisions, identify opportunities and measure impact
• most importantly, share our belief that great organisations grow their own talent, creating opportunities for individuals to thrive while building the capability needed for future success.

The decisions we make about talent shape the future of our business. By helping colleagues understand their strengths, develop new capabilities and prepare for future opportunities, you'll contribute directly to stronger leadership pipelines, increased internal mobility and a workforce ready for tomorrow's challenges.

If you're passionate about unlocking human potential and creating meaningful development experiences, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll receive

• A combined pension contribution of up to 20%.
• Career progression and professional development opportunities.
• 25 days' holiday rising to 28 with length of service.
• The opportunity to sell up to five days of holiday every year.
