Do you love turning complex business needs into learning experiences that drive real behaviour change?

Are you equally comfortable designing a high-impact leadership workshop, a blended AI enablement journey, or a practical online learning program for working professionals? Do you know how to take expert knowledge from leaders, operators, and technical specialists and turn it into clear, engaging, applied learning that people can use immediately in their work?

Do you enjoy building learning that is commercially sharp, learner-centred, practical, and measurable? Are you excited by the opportunity to help shape a fast-growing corporate training portfolio across AI, data, leadership, management, culture, and change?

If so, this may be the role for you.

Role Summary

As a Learning Experience Designer, Corporate Training, you will lead the design and development of high-impact enterprise learning solutions across online, hybrid, and in-person formats. You will work closely with subject matter experts, facilitators, program managers, and cross-functional stakeholders to translate business needs and expert insight into practical, engaging, and commercially strong learning experiences.

You will design learning journeys that go beyond content delivery to build real capability, measurable skill acquisition, and on-the-job application. This includes adapting existing ALX offerings for corporate use, co-creating new interventions where needed, and building modular curricula, workshops, assessments, projects, simulations, diagnostics, and reinforcement mechanisms that align to client outcomes. This scope reflects the enterprise model’s focus on role-specific learning, hands-on labs, assessments, rubrics, sponsor alignment, and measurable business value.

Assessment, Skills Validation, and Behaviour Change

  • Design assessments, rubrics, simulations, applied tasks, and project-based evaluation approaches that validate real capability, not just recall.
  • Build mechanisms for skills measurement, feedback, and continuous improvement across the learner journey.
  • Incorporate diagnostics, self-assessments, manager sign-off, or role-based evidence where appropriate.
  • Design for behaviour change and transfer to work through reinforcement, nudges, reflection, peer learning, and practical action planning.
  • Help define how learning outcomes and business outcomes will be tracked and evidenced over time.

SME and Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner closely with subject matter experts to convert deep expertise into accessible, structured, high-value learning.
  • Collaborate with facilitators, program managers, operations, product, and commercial teams to ensure design feasibility and delivery readiness.
  • Engage confidently with senior internal stakeholders and, where needed, client stakeholders during discovery, design, review, and refinement..

Quality, Iteration, and Continuous Improvement

  • Apply strong learning design standards, templates, and quality assurance processes across all corporate offerings.
  • Use learner feedback, stakeholder input, performance data, and delivery insights to improve learning experiences iteratively.
  • Review existing ALX offerings and identify where they can be adapted for stronger corporate fit.
  • Contribute to the ongoing development of the corporate training design playbook, templates, reusable assets, and design systems.
  • Maintain strong version control, documentation, and organisation of learning assets for reuse and scale.

Tools, Innovation, and Design Operations

  • Use appropriate instructional design, authoring, collaboration, and AI-enabled tools to improve design quality and speed.
  • Explore new methods, technologies, and media formats that improve learner engagement, accessibility, and measurable impact.
