Senior Manager, Learning & Development

Who We Are 

Evergreen Nephrology partners with nephrologists to transform kidney care through a value-based, person-centered, holistic, and comprehensive approach to kidney care. We believe patients living with kidney disease deserve the best care. We are committed to improving patient outcomes and improving quality of life by delaying disease progression, shifting care to the home, and accelerating kidney transplants. 

We help nephrologists focus on the right patients at the right time across the full care spectrum. We do this by providing them with the best-in-class interdisciplinary clinical resources, analytical insight and tools, and services to patients. We listen to the needs of our patients, our employees, and our client partners, continually working to push beyond the status quo in which the care system manages patients today. 

Who You Are 

You are a pragmatic, hands-on learning leader who believes learning should directly enable business performance - not exist as a standalone function. You thrive in lean environments where you are responsible for both defining direction and delivering outcomes. You are comfortable operating as a senior individual contributor, partnering closely with leaders across the organization, and building solutions from the ground up.  

You are energized by translating ambiguity into practical, scalable approaches that help teams perform at a high level, especially in operational and clinical settings. 

Your Role 

As Senior Manager, Learning & Development, you will serve as Evergreen’s primary learning leader and builder, owning the design and delivery of our most business-critical learning priorities.  

Reporting to the SVP of People, this role is focused on enabling execution: ensuring our teams can perform effectively in role, with a primary emphasis on partnering with Clinical Operations and Technology, delivering onboarding, building the leadership skills of Evergreen’s managers, and outlining clear career and learning opportunities for all Evergreen employees.  

This is a highly hands-on and cross-functional role. You will personally design, build, and deliver Evergreen’s highest-impact learning programs, leveraging cross-functional partners and lightweight tools to scale your work. This role is best suited for a builder who is comfortable owning strategy and execution end-to-end, without reliance on a direct team.  

While this position is fully remote, candidates should be able to work core business hours of 9am-5pm in the Central time zone.    

Evergreen’s current learning technology and tool stack includes: WorkRamp (LMS), Articulate, 7Taps, Tango, and LinkedIn Learning. Evergreen utilizes the Microsoft suite of products, including Copilot.
