The Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) is seeking a Senior Director, Learning & Development who will lead the strategy, development, and performance of AMPP’s global education portfolio. The Senior Director will be responsible for ensuring that AMPP’s education portfolio is current, technically innovative, and delivered effectively across all formats by a qualified, well-supported instructor network. An important initial priority for the Senior Director will be to evaluate AMPP’s existing technical education portfolio, instructional design capabilities, learning technologies, and course development processes. Building on this assessment, the Senior Director will identify opportunities to enhance existing programs, develop new offerings, improve learner outcomes, and strengthen the market relevance and financial sustainability of AMPP’s education portfolio.

AMPP has a strong preference for candidates who will reside within a reasonable commuting distance of its offices in Houston, Texas or Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. AMPP will consider exceptional candidates outside those markets, with the expectation of regular travel to office location.
