Talent Development Manager, Early Career Programs

The Opportunity

Trane Technologies is a global industrial company with over 46,000 employees operating across some of the most complex, fast-moving markets in the world. Our Talent & Organizational Capability (T&OC) COE (center of excellence) exists to build the organizational strength that fuels our outperformance, and this role sits at the center of that mission.

As an Early Career Manager, you will own the enterprise roadmap and program standards for Trane Technologies’ student programs across the company, including interns in commercial sales functions, functional internships, and co-ops, and lead day-to-day delivery of the early talent portfolio for assigned business functions. You will partner with business executives, Early Talent Councils (ETCs), HR Business Partners (HRBPs), and Talent Acquisition to deliver a consistent, high-quality participant experience and build a talent pipeline aligned with future business needs.

You will lead the next phase of the program, aligning rotations with critical enterprise skill needs, strengthening program governance, and equipping managers and advisors to develop early-career talent. You will use participant and manager feedback, program data, and external benchmarking to prioritize improvements that keep the student program competitive and measure their impact on participant development, post-program placement, and long-term retention. This is a role for a practitioner-strategist who sees career and performance development as a lever for business and culture outcomes.

Functional Talent Partnership & Program Delivery

  • Serve as the primary talent development partner for assigned business functions, building relationships with functional leaders, HRBPs, program participants, and people managers to understand talent priorities and development needs.
  • Oversee day-to-day program delivery and participant experience for early talent participants within assigned functions, including onboarding, development planning, assignments and rotations, manager engagement, performance checkpoints, and key program milestones.
  • Identify and proactively address program challenges, participant concerns, and opportunities to improve manager effectiveness, engagement, and talent development outcomes.
  • Develop a holistic understanding of the talent pipeline within assigned functions, identifying opportunities to strengthen development pathways, internal mobility, and talent retention across career stages.
  • Partner with early talent program owners and T&OC colleagues to deliver a connected, consistent talent development experience tailored to functional business needs.

Program Governance & Continuous Improvement

  • Partner with fellow program managers to establish consistent program standards, tools, processes, and participant experiences across talent development initiatives.
  • Identify opportunities to streamline program administration, share resources, and improve operational efficiency as programs scale.
  • Collaborate across the T&OC team to align development programs with broader talent management, succession, and organizational capability strategies.
  • Partner with Workday Talent product owners to align system capabilities, reporting, and employee and leader experiences with program needs.

Analytics & Impact

  • Build and leverage data sets, metrics, and evaluation frameworks to measure short-, mid-, and long-term program effectiveness, demonstrating impact on retention, readiness, equitable access, pipeline health, and business performance. Present findings and recommendations to senior HR and business leadership.
  • Continuously scan the external landscape to identify emerging practices, benchmark against best-in-class organizations, and introduce innovation that keeps Trane Technologies' talent growth approach ahead of the curve.
  • Monitor program execution and outcomes within assigned business functions, identifying trends, opportunities, and risks that require action.

What You Will Bring

  • 6+ years of progressive experience in talent management and career development within a complex, global organization with a demonstrated track record of designing, implementing, and measuring enterprise-scale accelerated talent development solutions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
