• Deliver onboarding and training materials to support user engagement
• Maintain and structure learning content (e.g. SCORM, H5P, CPD modules)
• Monitor data/reporting to track learner engagement and platform performance
• Collaborate with digital and curriculum leads to inform strategy and reporting (e.g. via Power BI)
• Ensure compliance with data protection (GDPR), accessibility, and internal standards
• Stay up to date with EdTech trends and LMS innovation

What we're looking for?

• Strong experience managing LMS platforms, ideally Moodle or Moodle Workplace
• Confidence using learning standards such as SCORM, LTI, xAPI
• Experience with HTML/CSS for platform customisation

• Ability to manage competing deadlines while ensuring platform reliability

It would be great if you also have:

• Experience in apprenticeship or vocational training environments
• Familiarity with Power BI or similar dashboard/reporting tools
• Understanding of accessibility standards (e.g. WCAG 2.2) and digital quality frameworks
• Any professional digital learning accreditations (e.g. CMALT, Digital Learning Institute)

The Offer

• Fully remote position with limited travel
• Opportunity to shape and lead LMS strategy within a respected national training provider
• Be part of an organisation making a real impact through vocational education
