Do you have proven experience of scoping, developing and implementing digital learning solutions within a Talent and Development (T&D) environment? If so, this exciting opportunity may be ideal to support the team and cover maternity leave.
As a talent and digital learning specialist, you will contribute to the modernisation and improvement of the University’s Talent and Development (L&D) offering through the introduction of innovative digital learning solutions. The post holder will lead on the delivery of a digital strategy which is underpinned by the principles of blended learning to enable the transition to a more flexible cost-effective operating model.
You will support the deployment of a phased fast-paced transitional plan to implement creative and cost-effective digital learning solutions (such as e-learning, digital learning, social learning platforms, mobile learning, and video learning) which support strategic objectives and organisational requirements, with a view to sustainably embed the new blended T&D offer into the Department’s business as usual activities.

* The design and delivery of a range of innovative, cost-effective digital learning solutions (including e-learning) which support strategic objectives and organisational requirements. This will involve the progressive transition (where appropriate) from traditional classroom-based training content into an engaging and user-friendly e-learning/digital format, ensuring a blended approach to T&D delivery.
* Using relevant project management tools such as a project initiation document, treatment document, storyboarding templates, user testing, etc. to deploy the Department’s transition plan in a structured yet agile way, prioritising the rollout of courses or programmes according to organisational context.
What will you bring to the role?
* Hold a relevant professional qualification at Degree level, i.e. HR, T&D, digital learning, or training qualification, or equivalent experience.
* Previous proven experience of scoping, developing and implementing digital learning solutions.
* Proven professional experience of working in an L&D environment.
* Experience of working with Learning Management Systems and L&D software/digital platforms/authoring tools such as Moodle, Adapt, Rise, Articulate, or Storyline.

As a member of our team, you can expect a friendly, open, and collaborative working environment and support in your development and wellbeing. You'll enjoy a range of great staff benefits including:
* Hybrid working options allowing a flexible blend of office and home working (to be agreed in line with business needs).
* 43 days' leave per year (personal leave, bank holidays, and additional days allocated for the Christmas period, pro rata for part-time staff).
