Purpose of the Role
The Learning Specialist is a recognised learning and performance design professional responsible for analysing, designing and developing operational training solutions within a defined scope, applying structured learning and performance methodologies aligned to operational and regulatory requirements.
Working within the Design & Development team, the role contributes to both the creation of new training solutions arising from operational change and the improvement of existing training where refinement, optimisation or modernisation is required. The Learning Specialist works in close partnership with Operational Subject Matter Experts and colleagues across Operations Training to translate defined requirements into clear, well‑designed and auditable learning outputs.
The role applies professional judgement to shape learning solutions, user journeys and design documentation, ensuring outputs are engaging, proportionate and fit for purpose. Instructional design principles, performance analysis techniques and evaluation methods are applied to support safe, effective and efficient operational performance. The overall scope, prioritisation and assurance expectations for the role are defined by a Senior Learning Specialist, within which the Learning Specialist operates with autonomy and accountability for assigned design activity.
