Job description

People are the beating heart of Newton, and our success and outstanding client impact is reliant upon the extraordinary talent that call Newton home. It is our mission to help great people experience extraordinary careers whilst enabling impactful, sustainable positive change in the delivery of service within some of the largest employers in the UK and beyond.

Best-in-class learning and development is crucial to enabling our people to continue to solve the most challenging problems and have a massive impact. Our new skills framework will underpin our learning and development ecosystem. We are looking for a Learning Designer to lead the redesign of our current learning programmes against the framework and design, deliver and curate new interventions that positively impact performance.

As part of the Talent team, this role will help ensure everyone in the business gets the learning they need, when they need it. Working with some of the brightest minds in the industry, it will bring a unique perspective to how we design and deliver learning and development initiatives and will be seen as an L&D expert across the business. Key parts of the role include:

• Conducting robust Learning Needs Analysis to provide clarity on the intended outcome of all learning interventions
• Collaborate with internal Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to design learning interventions
• Building industry-leading, innovative and flexible learning pathways
• Designing soft skills training that focuses on positively affecting performance at the point of need
• Producing simple multimedia learning solutions that reach learners wherever and whenever they need it
• Evaluation and continuous improvement of learning interventions
• Collaborating with external learning professionals to design blended, in-house learning interventions

You’ll report to our Talent Design Lead, and help them to shape our talent pathways.

YOUR EDUCATION, SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

You’ll be a high calibre individual, with exceptional levels of personal drive and eagerness for personal development. You will ideally have demonstrable experience of designing career pathways and learning interventions in a professional services environment, or have a strong understanding of competency frameworks and career pathways within a consulting firm, but this is not essential.

The skills or experience we would expect you to evidence include:

• Experience in designing and delivering creative and sustainable learning
• A track record in improving performance through high-quality learning interventions
• Proven ability to build learning pathways and curricula
• A curious nature coupled with creative problem-solving skills
• A strong attention to detail
• Sound time management skills and the ability to prioritise and navigate busy workloads
• Able to work independently but also collaborate broadly across the business
• Natural stakeholder management skills, both with SMEs and learners

HOW DO WE DEVELOP AND REWARD YOU?

Newton’s culture is prefaced on maximising the potential of our people, including in enabling central functions. This role offers you the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on Newton’s phenomenal growth story, with a driving seat in the acceleration of our talent development framework. You will have the opportunity to touch the career journeys of our gifted community and take pride in their achievements and impact across our client portfolio.

We offer a highly competitive salary (£50,000 - £65,000), company performance bonus and our generous benefits package also includes Life Assurance, Income Protection, pension contributions and 28 days’ holiday.
