Mortgage Distribution Learning and Development Specialist
Mortgage Distribution brings together Mortgage sales and servicing activity for Nationwide. In this role, you’ll help our colleagues build the confidence, knowledge and capability they need to deliver brilliant service for our members across our Home and Landlord mortgage teams.
We’re looking for someone who enjoys working with others, taking ownership and creating learning that makes a real difference. You’ll deliver training to large groups, both face to face and virtually, supporting engaging learning journeys across Mortgage Distribution.
The role includes regular travel to Nationwide Administration sites, giving you the opportunity to connect with colleagues, support onboarding and bring learning to life in a face-to-face environment.
This is a 12-month secondment opportunity.
At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.
For this job you'll be located at our nearest regional office or hub. There will be a need to regularly connect with colleagues for collaboration and in some locations you’ll be expected to spend at least two days a week, or if part time you'll spend 40% of your working time, in the office. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works.
Nationwide is committed to the redeployment of our employees impacted by change, as such applications for redeployment candidates will be prioritised in this recruitment process. If you’re a colleague on long-term absence (for example, on parental leave) or a temporary worker, please use your personal email address to submit an application.
RESPONSIBILITIES
What you’ll be doing
You’ll design and deliver learning solutions that support business priorities, colleague development and outstanding customer outcomes. By identifying learning needs and creating engaging, accessible content, you’ll help colleagues build confidence and perform at their best. Working closely with teams, departments and subject matter experts, you’ll ensure learning is practical, relevant and aligned to operational requirements. You’ll also support colleague induction and process training, delivering both face-to-face and virtual learning through Microsoft Teams.
A key part of the role will involve supporting colleagues to support members through their mortgage journey, from servicing their mortgage, through to advised applications. You’ll plan and manage training projects from concept to delivery, balancing multiple priorities while identifying opportunities to improve policy, processes, performance and colleague competence. Managing your own portfolio and schedule, you’ll ensure all learning materials are accurate, engaging and aligned with brand and best practice standards.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
