ZBeta, a pioneer in delivering comprehensive physical security consulting services, added Jim McCormack as learning and development manager. In this role, he will focus on building the company’s commitment to learning, technical excellence and collaboration.

McCormack will shape and oversee ZBeta’s learning and development initiatives, spanning onboarding, career growth and knowledge sharing. His focus will be on creating programs that scale — helping new hires hit the ground running, supporting ongoing development and deepening expertise across every corner of the company.

“At ZBeta, our greatest asset is the collective knowledge and drive of our people,” said Anna Yates, vice president of talent and culture, ZBeta. “Jim’s approach to learning and development will further strengthen our foundation and help us continue to set new standards for client service and performance, and further demonstrate Zbeta’s ongoing commitment to our people and our clients.”

Investing in people and growth sits at the heart of ZBeta’s mission. McCormack’s addition builds on this commitment and deepens its focus on developing talent and driving operational excellence.

A strategic and results-driven executive, McCormack brings more than 13 years of leadership experience designing, implementing, and evolving diverse learning, training and quality programs across global organizations. His expertise spans the full learning lifecycle — from designing comprehensive training programs and implementing global learning management systems to driving leadership development and embedding diversity, equity & inclusion principles into organizational cultures.

Before joining ZBeta, McCormack served as global learning and development lead for SMB at Accenture, where he oversaw teams across six global locations and implemented standardized assets to foster collaboration and performance excellence. Previously, he held senior training leadership roles at Indeed.com, where he led the financial operations training strategy. McCormack is also the founder of RKW Training, a consultancy specializing in onboarding, management development and learning strategy design.

“ZBeta’s focus on people and its culture of continuous learning and collaboration aligns perfectly with my passion for building educational and training ecosystems that empower businesses to grow and thrive,” McCormack said. “By focusing on capability building and knowledge sharing, we can elevate how our teams deliver for clients and for one another.”
