👇ABOUT YOU

You're passionate about helping people develop, succeed, and reach their full potential. Whether you're facilitating engaging training sessions, coaching colleagues to improve performance, or creating learning solutions that make a real impact, you thrive on seeing others grow.

We're looking for someone with experience delivering operational training in a fast-paced environment, who can confidently build relationships and influence stakeholders at all levels. You'll be an excellent communicator, able to adapt your style to different audiences, gain buy-in, and support colleagues through change.

You'll be highly organised, proactive, and comfortable managing multiple priorities, with strong facilitation and presentation skills. A keen eye for detail, a collaborative approach, and the ability to work independently are all key to success in this role.

Ideally, you'll also bring experience in developing digital learning content, working with Learning Management Systems (LMS), and supporting continuous improvement initiatives. A CIPD Learning & Development qualification, training certification, or knowledge of adult learning principles would be a bonus, but most importantly, you'll have a genuine passion for learning and development and a drive to make a difference.

If you're adaptable, resilient, people-focused, and excited by the opportunity to shape learning experiences that improve performance and engagement, we'd love to hear from you.
