Position Summary

The Senior Manager, Talent & Employee Experience shapes how ProShares develops, retains, and engages its people — from a new hire's first week to a leader's long-term growth path. This is not a role for someone who designs large-scale programs from a distance. It is for someone who thinks holistically about the employee experience, gets into the work directly, and builds practical solutions that fit a ~175-person financial services firm.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Partner with the CHRO to build and evolve the firm's talent framework — including talent reviews, succession planning structure, and the tools and processes that support them.

• Shape the employee experience across the full lifecycle: how employees are developed, how performance is assessed, differentiated, and calibrated, how managers are equipped to lead, and how engagement is sustained over time.

• Build and run a meaningful onboarding experience that sets employees up for early success — going beyond logistics to ensure new hires understand the culture, the business, and what good looks like at ProShares.

• Lead the performance management cycle end-to-end — timelines, tools, manager guidance, and follow-through — ensuring it is consistently applied and actually useful, not just completed.

• Strengthen manager capability through targeted coaching, feedback tools, and development support. This means working directly with managers, not just building content for them.

• Assess learning needs across the organization and develop focused, practical solutions — whether a targeted learning initiative, a structured resource, or a process improvement.

• Support and coordinate employee engagement and DEI initiatives, ensuring they are integrated into the broader employee experience rather than treated as standalone programs.

• Manage the HR talent calendar, keeping key processes and initiatives on track across the employee lifecycle.

• Leverage Paylocity to support performance tracking, development planning, and talent reporting.

• Manage LinkedIn Learning and the LMS platform — driving relevance and adoption — as one tool among many in service of a broader development strategy.

What Sets This Role Apart

• Genuine ownership of the talent and employee experience agenda at a firm where HR has executive support and real credibility.

• Direct partnership with the CHRO on foundational work — talent framework, succession planning, and the infrastructure that makes development stick.

• A role where your thinking shapes the experience of every employee, not just the participants in a training program.

• Broad scope across onboarding, performance, talent, engagement, and manager development — without the bureaucracy of a large organization slowing you down.

• Roughly half of the work is building something new. If you want to inherit a finished function and run it, this is not the right role.

Compensation & Benefits

• The compensation for this position includes salary and incentive pay. The annual base salary range for this role is $130,000-$150,000 (USD), which does not include discretionary bonus compensation. Total compensation may vary based on experience, role, location, department, and individual performance.

• Benefits Include:

  • Competitive discretionary bonus
  • Health care benefits (medical, dental & vision)
  • Life, AD&D, supplemental life, disability, and legal benefit insurance
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer matching
  • Spending accounts (Health Care, Dependent Care, and Transportation)
  • Wellness programs — fitness reimbursement and Employee Assistance Program
  • Education assistance
  • Paid time off
  • Hybrid work schedule (3 days in-office at our Bethesda, MD headquarters)
  • Peer recognition and corporate matching gift programs
