Job description

Artis HR is supporting a Bristol-based organisation with an exciting opportunity for a Learning & Development Manager.

This is a chance to step into a newly dedicated L&D position and take the lead on how learning and development is delivered across the business.

There is already a commitment to developing people, but now the organisation is looking for someone to bring everything together, identify where the biggest opportunities lie and build a more joined-up approach to learning. From creating practical training tools and delivering development programmes to measuring their impact, you'll have the freedom to shape the function and make your mark.

The role

You'll take ownership of the full L&D cycle, working closely with managers and the wider People team to understand business needs and turn them into meaningful learning opportunities.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Identifying training needs across the business and developing a company-wide approach to learning and development.
• Designing and delivering engaging training programmes, resources and learning materials.
• Developing and coordinating company induction, management development and mentoring programmes.
• Supporting managers to identify departmental learning needs and deliver effective training within their teams.
• Coordinating mandatory compliance and safeguarding training, ensuring completion targets are met and records are maintained.
• Managing the e-learning platform, reviewing content and keeping learning resources relevant and effective.
• Measuring the impact of training, developing reporting and using insights to improve future programmes.
• Exploring opportunities to maximise apprenticeship levy funding and support workforce development.
• Managing external training providers and the L&D budget, ensuring programmes deliver value and make effective use of resources.

About you

You'll be someone who enjoys getting stuck in, building relationships and turning ideas into practical learning solutions. You're comfortable working independently, taking the initiative and balancing the bigger picture with hands-on delivery.

You'll ideally bring:

• Experience designing, developing and implementing learning programmes from start to finish.
• A strong background in delivering training and induction programmes.
• The ability to identify development needs and create solutions that make a genuine difference.
• Confidence working with managers and stakeholders at different levels of the business.
• Experience evaluating training effectiveness and measuring outcomes.
• Strong organisational, prioritisation and communication skills.
• CIPD Level 5 in Learning & Development, or an equivalent qualification.
• A coaching qualification would be beneficial.

What's on offer?

• Salary of up to 40,000.
• Bristol-based working, with four days per week in the office.
• Flexibility around working arrangements, depending on business needs.
• The opportunity to take ownership of a dedicated L&D function and influence how learning develops across the organisation.
• A varied role combining programme design, delivery, stakeholder engagement and continuous improvement.
