Britebound fulfills its mission through free digital-first direct experiences, philanthropy, advocacy, thought leadership, groundbreaking research, and impact investing. We believe that exploring career possibilities, as early as middle school, and providing access to education-to-career pathways aligned with one’s passions and goals will result in greater confidence and long-term success for all students.

We are looking for a Learning and Development Specialist. This role will play a pivotal role in advancing Britebound's mission by equipping employees with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to thrive. In this highly collaborative role, you’ll assess learning needs, design engaging programs, and help drive a culture of continuous growth and professional development across the organization.

You’ll have the opportunity to shape Britebound's learning strategy — from onboarding and leadership development to DEI learning and technical skill-building — ensuring every team member has the opportunity to learn, grow, and lead.

• Curate external learning resources (LinkedIn Learning, webinars, conferences) to enhance internal programs.

Facilitation & Employee Engagement

• Create engaging training materials, job aids, and performance support tools grounded in adult learning principles.
• Facilitate live and virtual workshops, lunch-and-learns, and team development sessions.
• Coach and support managers in conducting effective performance and career development conversations.
• Champion a culture of learning by promoting available resources and encouraging continuous skill growth.

Measurement & Continuous Improvement

• Strong communication, facilitation, and interpersonal skills.
• Highly organized and able to manage multiple projects in a dynamic environment.
• Deep understanding of adult learning principles, instructional design, and behavior change strategies.
• Collaborative and mission-driven, with a passion for supporting others’ growth.

Preferred

• Professional certification (ATD CPLP, CPTD, SHRM-CP, or PHR).
• Experience in nonprofit, education, or mission-driven organizations.
• Familiarity with leadership development frameworks and performance coaching.
