Global Manager, Talent Acceleration (Management)

Join our People and Culture team as the Global Manager, Talent Acceleration (also known as Talent Management) and lead the charge in unlocking the potential of SharkNinja team members to deliver extraordinary results. 
At SharkNinja, culture is our secret sauce—our True Edge and competitive advantage. As the Global Manager, Talent Acceleration (Management), you'll play a crucial role in embedding and amplifying this culture through data-driven, impactful talent management initiatives that drive performance, engagement, and career growth. This hybrid role is based in our Needham HQ, three days a week. 

Talent Acceleration
Talent Acceleration (or tX for short) is our commitment to building a more connected and dynamic team member experience—one that not only drives individual and organizational growth and performance but also strengthens our culture of belonging and shared purpose.

About the Role:  
We aren’t interested in ‘traditional HR’ at SharkNinja. Instead, we are looking for an agile-minded and multi-skilled operator, who knows how to apply talent practices to business challenges and opportunities, in a way that delivers real value. In this newly created role, you will get to take on several opportunities: from facilitating high impact initiatives with leaders and teams, to coming up with creative ways to scale our Outrageously Extraordinary culture, to measuring and demonstrating impact of our programs.  This is a great opportunity for an experienced people and culture practitioner or consultant, who wants to do things differently. 
Some Ways that You Will Drive Impact: 
•    Organizational Development: Expertise in designing and implementing talent programs, including feedback systems and performance frameworks. 
•    Data-Driven Decision-Making: Analyze and leverage data to shape talent strategy and measure program impact. 
•    Stakeholder Collaboration: Strong communication skills to partner with leadership and HR teams, aligning talent strategies with business goals. 
•    Continuous Learning & Curiosity: A relentless drive to innovate, find new insights, and improve talent practices.


What We’re Looking For: 
•    Educational Excellence: We’re open to hearing from people without a traditional HR background with 5+ years experience.  
•    Consultative Approach: Strong diagnostic and consultative skills to navigate complex organizational challenges. 
•    Project Management: Strong project management skills with experience handling multiple initiatives simultaneously. 
•    Performance, Feedback and Career Development: A solid experience of each of these areas, and ways of building adapting them to the needs of a fast paced, innovative business, would be very helpful.   
•    Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to influence and collaborate with senior leaders. 

Who Thrives Here? You thrive here if: 
•    You don’t wait for permission—you see a challenge and own it. 
•    You embrace discomfort—growth happens on the edge of possibility. 
•    You don’t just do your job—you redefine what’s possible. 
•    You play to win—repeatedly. Winning today fuels winning tomorrow. 
•    You thrive on unvarnished feedback—it fuels your growth. 
•    You ask, “How can we make this happen—faster, bigger, better?” 
•    You have an insatiable curiosity for differentiated hard-to-replicate insights. 
•    You execute with urgency, rapidly iterating, identifying gaps, and pivoting. 
•    You persist through adversity, relentlessly driving results. 
 
SharkNinja isn’t for everyone. But if you’re ready to achieve more than you ever thought possible, this is your place. Welcome to SharkNinja. We’re just getting started.
