We have an exciting opportunity for a proactive and collaborative Learning and Development Partner to join our People team at Our Future Health on a 12-month fixed-term contract.

Working closely with our L&D Lead, you'll play an important role in delivering practical, engaging and inclusive learning experiences that help our colleagues and managers develop their skills, confidence and effectiveness.

We're looking for someone who enjoys facilitating learning, creating engaging training materials and working with people across different teams. You'll take ownership of allocated learning activities, from planning through to delivery and evaluation, helping us continuously improve how we support learning and development across the organisation.

Despite big improvements in healthcare in our lifetimes, today millions of people in the UK still live in poor health as they get older. Diseases like cancer, dementia, diabetes, and heart disease affect the lives of many people in our communities. Our goal is to create a world-leading resource for health research, to improve our understanding and spot the patterns of how and why common diseases start, so treatments can begin sooner and be more effective.

Our Future Health will be the UK's largest ever health research programme, bringing people together to develop new ways to detect, prevent, and treat diseases. We are a charity, supported by the UK Government, in partnership with charities and industry. We work closely with the NHS and with public authorities across all nations and regions of the UK.

What you'll be doing:

In this role, you'll work with colleagues, managers and subject-matter experts to coordinate and deliver learning activities that support professional development, wellbeing and inclusive ways of working.

Your key responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Take ownership of allocated learning activities, managing their planning, coordination, delivery and evaluation to agreed standards and timelines.
• Facilitate engaging training sessions for colleagues and managers, both in person and virtually, adapting your approach to different audiences and learning needs.
• Design and develop accessible learning materials, session plans, digital resources and practical guidance to support colleague development and onboarding.
• Work collaboratively with managers, teams and subject-matter experts to understand learning needs and support the delivery of relevant training.
• Coordinate learning programmes and activities, including scheduling, communications, resources and logistics, ensuring a positive experience for participants.
• Support learning initiatives that promote wellbeing, inclusive behaviours and healthy working practices.
• Maintain accurate learning records, monitor participation and completion rates, and support the coordination of mandatory and compliance training.
• Gather and analyse learner feedback and learning data, identifying opportunities to improve the quality, accessibility and effectiveness of our learning offer.
• Work with external training providers and internal stakeholders to coordinate agreed learning activities and development programmes.

Requirements

Ideally, you'll have experience delivering and coordinating learning and development activities, with a practical understanding of how to create engaging and inclusive learning experiences.

We recognise that candidates may have developed relevant experience through different career paths and welcome applications from those who can demonstrate many, though not necessarily all, of the skills and experience listed below:

• Experience facilitating training sessions and coordinating learning activities across different teams.
• A good understanding of adult learning principles and inclusive facilitation, with confidence delivering training both in person and virtually.
• Experience designing engaging training materials, learning resources and digital content.
• Strong organisational and communication skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities, work independently and take ownership of allocated activities.
• Confidence using learning management systems and digital tools to coordinate training, maintain records and monitor learning completion.
• The ability to gather and analyse feedback and learning data, using insights to recommend practical improvements.
• A collaborative and adaptable approach, with the ability to build positive working relationships with colleagues and stakeholders.
• A commitment to accessible and inclusive learning, with an understanding of how learning and development can support colleague wellbeing.
• A relevant learning, training or HR qualification would be beneficial, although equivalent practical experience is equally valued.
• Experience creating e-learning modules, particularly using Articulate Rise or Storyline, would be an advantage.
