The LXD carries programmatic ownership of assigned learning programs and training modalities from strategy through delivery, measurement, and ongoing iteration.
This role works independently across multiple client teams and stakeholder groups within WWRR, translating operational realities into engaging, effective, and scalable digital learning experiences.

A day in the life
Your morning might begin with a review of Umbrella program reports - flagging completion trends, identifying gaps in a recently deployed curriculum, and resolving a dynamic assignment that did not trigger correctly for a new cohort. From there, you might shift into design work: building out a new in-app coaching experience in Articulate 360, iterating on a self-directed learning module based on SME feedback, or developing a job aid for a process update that needs to reach the Relo Network quickly. An afternoon might involve a working session with a Program Manager to scope an automated training solution, followed by a translation expansion review to assess which content is ready for multilingual deployment

Throughout the day, you are managing your program roadmap, communicating progress to stakeholders, holding a high bar for everything you build, and proactively surfacing risks before they become operational problems.
