Learning Experience Designer

Learning Experience Designer

**Remote – UK Full time**

Help us design learning for a world being changed by AI

The Virtual Training Team (VTT) designs learning experiences that help people change how they think, act and work.

We’re looking for a Learning Experience Designer to join our small, friendly and ambitious team.

You’ll design learning across a wide range of subjects, from management and people skills to talent development and future-focused workplace capabilities. But there’s an important additional dimension to this role.

AI is changing both what people need to learn and how great learning can be designed. We want someone who is excited by that.

We’re not looking for someone who simply knows how to use ChatGPT or Copilot. We’re looking for a great learning designer who is genuinely curious about AI, already enjoys using it and wants to go deeper. You might already use AI confidently in your work, or you might have had fewer opportunities to explore it professionally but have been experimenting enthusiastically in your own time. What matters is the curiosity, judgement and appetite to learn, alongside excellent learning design skills.

If an emerging AI topic lands on your desk, we’d like your first reaction to be curiosity: I’d love to get into that.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll take client needs, ideas and sometimes fairly challenging briefs and turn them into thoughtful, practical learning experiences.

You’ll:

• Design excellent virtual, face-to-face and blended learning experiences focused on meaningful behaviour change.
• Create comprehensive, intuitive coach notes and delivery guidance so our coaches can deliver your designs brilliantly.
• Work with clients, colleagues and subject-matter experts to understand what people really need - not simply what somebody initially thinks the training should contain.
• Produce clear, engaging and professionally presented participant and coach materials, using excellent written English.
• Design learning about AI, researching rapidly evolving subjects and translating them into practical, credible learning for workplace audiences. This could include Copilot, AI adoption, AI-enabled ways of working and the human and behavioural changes surrounding AI.
• Work in an AI-native way, using AI extensively and intelligently for research, exploration, challenge, ideation, prototyping, analysis and improvement - while knowing when human judgement needs to take over.
• Stay curious about developments in AI, learning, technology and the changing workplace, continually experimenting and bringing new thinking into VTT.
• Manage a varied portfolio of design projects and priorities, producing considered, high-quality work at pace and delivering reliably to demanding deadlines.
• Apply learning science, behavioural science and adult-learning principles in practical ways that improve the learning experience.
• Design for what happens in the room - thinking carefully about timings, instructions, activities, group dynamics, transitions and the differences between virtual and face-to-face delivery.

The person we’re looking for

There’s no single career path that leads to this job, and we’re more interested in what you can do and how you think than whether you’ve followed a particular route.

You’ll probably recognise yourself in much of this:

You start with the human. You’re interested in participants - what they already know, what gets in their way and what will genuinely help them behave differently. You know that in a world where people can increasingly find information and answers for themselves, great learning needs to offer something more than they could readily discover on their own.

You’re a rapid learner and naturally curious. You enjoy getting your head around unfamiliar subjects, asking good questions and turning complexity into something clear, practical and useful. You’re interested in people, learning, technology and how the world of work is changing.

AI genuinely interests you. You experiment with it, learn about it and think critically about what it produces, whether that’s in your current job or on your own initiative. You’d be excited about designing learning about AI as well as using AI to improve your own work.

You’re an excellent communicator. You can write clearly, naturally and concisely, and make complicated ideas understandable without making them simplistic.

You combine pace with judgement. You can produce thoughtful, int…
