One of the great things about this role is the opportunity to contribute to the design and delivery of engaging learning interventions, including our Corporate Induction and Apprenticeship strategies, while managing our Learning Management System (LMS) and generating monthly management information reports. 

You’ll also be responsible for coordinating external training sessions, updating training matrices, responding promptly to queries via the Learning Mail inbox, and continuously reviewing learning outcomes to drive improvements.
