We are looking for a Learning Designer for one of our global insurance clients, an organisation known for shaping world‑class learning experiences across multiple academies.

This is an opportunity to step into a role where creativity meets impact, and where your expertise in instructional design will directly influence how thousands of learners grow every day.

In this role, you will be building engaging digital, virtual, and face‑to‑face learning experiences from the ground up, transforming raw materials like PPTs, documents and SME input into high‑quality, scalable learning journeys.
