• Work closely with the Partner leading our Academy & Early Careers and our SME’s to collaborate with our Internal Training Designer to transform field based insights and technical expertise into structured, engaging, and high-impact learning frameworks.
• Drive the co-creation of modern and scalable training frameworks optimised for diverse learning styles for internal colleague development.

The successful candidate will have...

• Proven ability to partner with non-technical & technical teams to translate technical jargon into clear educational steps.
• Outstanding communication skills with the ability to deliver high-engagement training.
• Proven ability to engage, influence, and collaborate with senior Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) across the Infrastructure division, ensuring the successful extraction of technical insights needed to build high-impact training and e-learning modules
