With a true start-up mentality, you'll help shape processes, build capability, and create learning solutions that meet the unique needs of the business.

- Partner with stakeholders and business leaders to understand needs and priorities, acting as a trusted advisor on learning, performance, and talent development.
- Design and implement blended learning solutions, collaborating with SMEs and external providers where required, ensuring all learning solutions are engaging, inclusive and aligned with business culture and strategy.
- Develop a comprehensive Divisional employee induction pathway for all new hires, ensuring a seamless and engaging onboarding experience regardless of location.
- Monitor participation, feedback and learning outcomes to support continuous improvement, measuring learning effectiveness using KPIs and evaluation models.
- Assist with talent, early careers and career development programmes where required.
- Conduct learning needs assessments, analysing performance data, engagement surveys, and business metrics to identify skill gaps, prioritise learning interventions based on business impact.
