This role is ideal for a learning professional who enjoys designing structured, high‑quality training solutions, working closely with Subject Matter Experts, and driving projects forward in a fast‑moving, collaborative environment.

• Selecting the most appropriate learning formats (eLearning, Instructor‑Led Training, Web‑Based Training, videos, job aids, guides)
• Developing multi‑modal learning assets for adult learners, including interactive eLearning, student and facilitator guides, assessments, and supporting content
• Creating and refining assessments aligned with learning objectives (quizzes, knowledge checks, closed‑book exams, troubleshooting scenarios)
• Managing projects end‑to‑end: timelines, milestones, risks, dependencies, and cross‑functional handoffs
• Leading review cycles and incorporating feedback to ensure quality, consistency, and effectiveness
• Coordinating with production teams and supporting course release through the Learning Management System (LMS)
• Working across regions and time zones while keeping projects on track

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in instructional design for adult learners in corporate training, professional development, or continuing education
• A degree in Instructional Design, Education, Learning Sciences, or a related field (certifications are a plus)
• Strong knowledge of adult learning theories and instructional design frameworks (Andragogy, Bloom’s Taxonomy, Cognitive Load Theory, Gagné’s Nine Events)
• Proven experience working in an SME‑partner model
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
• A proactive, solution‑oriented mindset with strong organizational and planning skills
• Ability to collaborate effectively in a global, multicultural environment

Technical Skills

• Learning Management Systems (e.g., Saba, Canvas, Moodle)
• eLearning authoring tools such as Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, Camtasia
• Project management tools (e.g., Smartsheets, Jira, MS Project)
• Collaboration tools (MS Teams, Google Docs, Slack)
• Graphic design or video editing tools (Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro) are a plus

• Design training that supports real performance and business impact
• Operate in a structured environment with clear processes, templates, and standards
