The role
The Advice Quality and Local Learning team lead the creation of learning content and services to over 250 local Citizens Advice offices supporting their learning initiatives.
As a Learning Project Developer, your role is to lead on the development of engaging and effective instructional design and learning materials for our local offices. You will use your learning theory, course development, copy editing and project management skills and knowledge to work in partnership with the Learning Media Developers to create interactive and visually appealing digital content that enhances the learning experience for local office staff and volunteers.
In this role you will be designing digital learning materials such as visual maps, storyboards, and project plans while ensuring alignment with accessibility and learning principles. The role also involves creating inclusive and brand-aligned learning resources, including simulations and interactive content using authoring tools.
Additionally, the role requires maintaining intranet and digital documentation, producing user guides, and supporting Welsh-language adaptations. Ensuring quality assurance through peer reviews, managing multiple projects, and communicating updates to stakeholders is essential.

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) is of strategic importance within the organisation and recognised as integral to all we do as a service.
Central to pursuing our EDI mission is building diverse and inclusive teams in which everyone has a sense of belonging. We believe inclusion is a social justice issue - a principle that underpins our all EDI work. To that end, we particularly welcome applications from people we would like to see better represented in our organisation and sector - people of colour, LGBTQ+ people and disabled people. We follow the social model of disability. We will offer an interview to disabled candidates who indicate they wish their application to be considered under our Disability Confident Interview Commitment where they meet our selection criteria in their application. Some of our roles attract a high volume of applications and in some circumstances where it is not practicable or appropriate, we may limit the number of interviews offered to disabled and non-disabled candidates. We will provide reasonable adjustments as needed.
We’re a flexible employer, so this role may suit anyone who’d prefer a flexible arrangement to help their work/life balance, many of our colleagues spend most of their time working remotely. Whilst we prefer a blended approach between a local office, if one is near you, and home we’re open to being flexible on location, occasionally a role may require you to be based in a certain location if that's the case it will be detailed in the advert or job description. This can be discussed in more detail during your interview.
