What will you do?

A day in the life of a Director, Learning Portfolio & Curriculum Architecture at VF looks a little like this.

As a leader within the Global Learning and Leadership Development space, you will partner across enterprise and regional teams on the design and governance of the enterprise learning portfolio. You influence senior leaders’ learning priorities and establish the learning objectives of portfolio and program partners, regional learning leads, and HR stakeholders. Your role focuses on organizing, maintaining, and evolving the enterprise learning portfolio and curriculum architecture by synthesizing learning demand, shaping coherent pathways, and translating enterprise priorities into structured, decision‑ready roadmaps and insights that guide curriculum portfolio discussions. This role reports to the Senior Director, Global Learning and Leadership Development.
