  • Manage and optimize learning technologies, including the Learning Management System and digital learning platforms. 
  • Support the ongoing enhancement of the new employee orientation experience. 
  • Analyze learning, engagement, and adoption metrics to measure effectiveness and identify continuous improvement opportunities. 
  • Partner with stakeholders to improve learning technology integrations and the overall employee experience. 
  • Build strong relationships across the organization and serve as a trusted consultant on learning, technology adoption, and organizational change. 
     

Education & Experience  

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and experience. 
  • Four or more years of experience in Learning & Development, Organizational Development, Human Resources, Training, or a related field. 

Skills 

  • Experience designing and facilitating learning programs for adult learners. 
  • Experience administering or supporting a Learning Management System (LMS). 
  • Strong presentation, facilitation, communication, and consulting skills. 
  • Demonstrated ability to build partnerships and influence stakeholders across multiple levels of an organization. 
  • Experience supporting learning technology, HR technology, or digital workplace initiatives. 
  • Experience with content authoring tools such as Rise 360, Canva, or LMS creation tools. 
  • Experience leveraging Microsoft 365 tools to improve learning and collaboration. 
  • Experience within a financial services, banking, or credit union environment. 
  • Knowledge of adult learning theories and instructional design models. 
  • Visual design skills to support structured learning experiences to help our adult learners
