Job description
Description
Okland is a commercial general contractor and construction management company with more than 1,300 team members, delivering complex projects across healthcare, semiconductor, higher education, sports, hospitality, and other specialized markets. Founded in 1918 in Salt Lake City, we have grown for more than a century and operate throughout Utah, Arizona, and Idaho.
We believe how we build is just as important as what we build, and we approach every relationship with care. From clients and trade partners to team members and communities, we focus on creating experiences that earn trust.
Okland combines the stability of family ownership with employee ownership through our Employee Stock Ownership Plan. This unique structure provides the long-term perspective, and values-driven leadership that have guided our company for generations, while giving team members the opportunity to share the success they help create.
Our culture is rooted in accountability, humility, and excellence. We challenge the status quo, empower problem-solving, and trust our teams to take ownership and act. We learn from one another and work toward shared goals to deliver meaningful work with lasting impact. We invest in the next generation of construction talent through apprenticeships, internships, and scholarships for our communities. By expanding access for women, underrepresented groups, and families of our craft workforce who are first-generation college students, we strengthen the future of construction.
If you're naturally curious, detail-oriented, and enjoy turning complex information into practical learning experiences, we want to talk to you. As an Instructional Designer, you'll help build a new, job-specific training program that equips Okland employees with the knowledge and skills to succeed in their roles. You'll partner with subject matter experts to uncover how work gets done and translate that knowledge into engaging digital learning, instructor-led training, videos, and job aids. You'll thrive in this role if you ask thoughtful questions, build strong relationships, take ownership from discovery through delivery, and look for smarter ways to create high-quality training using emerging technology.
Partner with subject matter experts and stakeholders to understand job responsibilities, processes, tools, and performance expectations, asking thoughtful questions to uncover gaps and clarify complex information.
Apply adult learning and instructional design principles to identify training needs, establish learning objectives, and select effective learning approaches.
Develop self-paced digital learning, instructor-led curriculum, videos, activities, scenarios, assessments, job aids, and other performance-support resources.
Create engaging multimedia content using effective scripting, visual storytelling, filming, video editing, audio, graphics, and pacing.
Translate technical or unfamiliar subject matter into clear, accurate, practical learning experiences that reflect how work is performed.
Collaborate with subject matter experts to validate content, incorporate feedback, and ensure training meets business and learner needs.
Maintain high standards for accuracy, clarity, functionality, accessibility, visual quality, and consistency across learning materials.
Explore AI, automation, and emerging technologies to improve learning quality, accelerate production, and reduce repetitive work.
Partner with stakeholders to establish meaningful performance indicators, evaluate learning effectiveness, and continuously improve training based on learning outcomes and on-the-job performance.
Experience in instructional design, learning and development, curriculum development, training, or a related field.
Experience creating digital learning and instructor-led training, including learning objectives, assessments, activities, and job aids.
Experience with eLearning authoring tools such as Articulate 360, Rise, Storyline, or similar platforms.
Video editing and multimedia production experience, ideally for educational or explanatory content.
Strong discovery, communication, organization, and project management skills, with exceptional attention to detail.
A portfolio demonstrating instructional design and multimedia development capabilities.
Experience working with subject matter experts to develop training for technical, operational, or specialized roles.
Proficiency with video production tools such as Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, DaVinci Resolve, or similar platforms.
Experience using AI, automation, or emerging technologies to improve learning development and production workflows.
Experience evaluating training effectiveness through performance metrics and on-the-job outcomes.
Consistently recognized as a Best Place to Work in Utah, Arizona, and Idaho.
Weekly pay, competitive salary and bonus incentives.
ESOP employee ownership and an industry-leading 401(k) with a 6% employer match.
Free healthcare plan option plus medical, dental, vision, life, and disability coverage, paid parental leave, financial wellness tools, Employee Assistance Program, and mental health support.
