• Act as a trusted L&D partner to team leads and managers across support functions and business teams.
• Identify operational friction points and capability gaps, translating real world challenges into high impact learning solutions.
• Collaborate with key stakeholders to champion continuous learning and a growth mindset across the business.

Onboarding & Colleague Experience

• Own and elevate the end-to-end onboarding experience to accelerate new hires’ speed to competence and offer a warm, impactful welcome.
• Design and facilitate wider group learning initiatives, interactive workshops, and culture building events that enhance colleague engagement and value alignment.
• Learning Platforms & Analytics
• Manage and optimise our Learning Experience Platform (LXP) and digital learning toolkit to drive high adoption and self-directed learning.
• Track learning analytics, feedback, and performance indicators to measure ROI, evaluate capability growth, and continuously refine our offerings.

• Learning Design & Delivery: Proven track record in instructional design, workshop facilitation, and modern, creative L&D methodologies.
• Commercial Acumen: Ability to align learning interventions with strategic business goals and operational performance.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Strong communication and influencing skills across all business levels.
• Project Management: Excellent organisational skills to manage multiple learning initiatives from initial concept to evaluation across multiple countries.
• L&D Tech Literacy: Hands-on experience managing LXPs/LMS and modern digital learning tools.
• Creative Flair: A strong aesthetic sense for designing visually compelling, engaging learning touchpoints, thinking outside the box when it comes to learning content and delivery.
