You don’t need to be a software developer or technical SME; we are looking for a learning designer and facilitator with creative flair who knows how to engage people, accelerate speed to competence, and build high trust partnerships across our support and operational functions.

Based out of our Salford Quays office, this international role is dedicated to unlocking human potential, elevating leadership capabilities, and building modern learning experiences across our growing business in the UK, Europe and beyond. We’re scaling fast, and we need an energetic, creative Learning Partner to help us unlock high performance capabilities across our global business.
