Program Manager, Learning & Development

San Francisco

As a Program Manager on Asana’s Learning & Development team, you will be responsible for designing and scaling foundational programs that drive consistency, capability, and belonging across our global organization. You will own key programs, including global onboarding, senior staff onboarding, and the internal facilitator network, ensuring every Asana is set up for success from day one. You’ll drive continuous improvement in our core learning systems and experiences, enabling the entire L&D team to achieve its goals.

About the People Team : The People Team at Asana works to enable all Asanas to achieve our goals as a company in a way that is consistent with our values. We focus on recruiting, developing, and retaining exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds, ensuring that everyone can thrive, grow, and make a meaningful impact. Our work supports Asana’s broader mission : to help humanity thrive by enabling all teams to collaborate seamlessly and effectively.

This role is based in our San Francisco office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays. Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner. If you're interviewing for this role, your recruiter will share more about the in-office requirements.

What you’ll achieve

  • You will own the strategy, design, and execution of high-impact People Development programs across the company. In this role, you will :
  • Shape the long-term strategy for onboarding and early employee success, ensuring alignment with Asana’s leadership principles and global talent strategy. Design and continuously improve the overall experience, content, and delivery of global onboarding programs, maximizing belonging and reducing “time to ramp” for all new Asanas.
  • Be the face of L&D programs at Asana : Deliver instructor-led programming across the AMER region, primarily company onboarding, but may include manager onboarding, leadership development, and targeted team interventions.
  • Activate Internal Expertise : Establish, activate, and maintain an internal network of Asana facilitators, creating professional growth opportunities and ensuring a consistent and quality delivery model for various training programs company-wide.
  • Serve as the LMS Expert : Establish yourself as the team expert and administrator for our Learning Management System (Sana Learn), advising L&D and cross-functional teams on strategy for enrollment, governance, reporting, and process optimization.
  • Build Cross-Functional Alignment : Partner with stakeholders in Talent Acquisition, People Operations, and IT to integrate the end-to-end new hire experience and streamline operational workflows. Lead cross-functional change initiatives to evolve the onboarding ecosystem, ensuring adoption and consistency across global teams.
  • Maximize Program Outcomes : Design measurable frameworks for new hire productivity, belonging, and manager enablement, partnering with People Insights to track impact over time. Measure, analyze, and communicate the impact of your programs using data from the LMS and other sources to inform future strategy and investment.
  • Apply an AI-first approach to streamline processes, enhance content delivery, and create personalized learning experiences.

About you

  • We are looking for a Program Manager who is highly operational, strategic, and deeply focused on the customer experience.
  • 6+ years of experience in program management, with a track record of owning and scaling programs in People Development or L&D.
  • Expertise as a Learning Management System (LMS) administrator or power user, with demonstrated ability to advise on enrollment strategy, data integrity, and reporting.
  • Strong systems thinker who can architect end-to-end workflows across multiple tools and teams with a bias towards continuous innovation and process improvement.
  • Demonstrated ability to autonomously manage and scale operational complexity across a global population in a fast-paced environment.
  • Familiarity with adult learning principles and inclusive learning design.
  • Clear, compelling communicator, both verbally and in writing, capable of synthesizing complex information for various audiences and facilitating engaging live learning experiences.
  • Approach problem-solving with a strong sense of urgency, meticulous attention to detail, and exceptional time management skills.
  • Experience leading cross-functional change and influencing peer and senior stakeholders without direct authority.
  • Comfort designing measurable success metrics and using data to drive decision-making.
  • Experience with and enthusiasm for using AI to automate and optimize program workflows.
  • At Asana, we're committed to building teams that include a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills, as this is critical to helping us achieve our mission. If you're interested in this role and don't meet every listed requirement, we still encourage you to apply.

    What we’ll offer

    Our comprehensive compensation package plays a big part in how we recognize you for the impact you have on our path to achieving our mission. We believe that compensation should be reflective of the value you create relative to the market value of your role. To ensure pay is fair and not impacted by biases, we're committed to looking at market value which is why we check ourselves and conduct a yearly pay equity audit.

    For this role, the estimated base salary range is between $164,000 - $186,000. The actual base salary will vary based on various factors, including market and individual qualifications objectively assessed during the interview process. The listed range above is a guideline, and the base salary range for this role may be modified.

    In addition to base salary, your compensation package may include additional components such as equity, sales incentive pay (for most sales roles), and benefits. If you're interviewing for this role, speak with your Talent Acquisition Partner to learn more about the total compensation and benefits for this role.

  • Mental health, wellness & fitness benefits
