- Content Design & Development: Personally design and develop engaging technical content, labs, case studies and learning experiences across digital, classroom and workplace settings.

- Assessment Design: Design practical assessments to establish baseline proficiency, measure capability development and evaluate the application of learning in the workplace.

- Training & Facilitation: Deliver training, facilitate workshops and simplify complex technical concepts through practical examples and storytelling.

- Data & Outcomes: Analyse capability gaps, assessment results and workplace evidence to measure proficiency uplift, evaluate effectiveness and recommend what to improve, scale or stop.

- Learning Retention & Transfer: Use assessment data, learner feedback and workplace evidence to evaluate knowledge retention, transfer of learning into practice and sustained capability improvement over time, informing ongoing curriculum improvements.

- End-to-End Ownership: Drive curriculum from discovery to delivery and continuous improvement, collaborating with Programme Managers, Operations, technical experts and learning partners.

**Requirements:**

- At least 7 years of relevant experience in Computer Science, Data Engineering, AI, Software Engineering or related technical fields.

- Strong technical knowledge and hands-on experience in Data Engineering, AI, machine learning or generative AI.

- Experience architecting curricula, structuring learning content, designing technical learning and facilitating training.

- Analytical, data-driven and outcome-focused, with strong critical thinking skills to diagnose problems, challenge assumptions and turn insights into measurable improvements.

- A self-starter who takes ownership, drives initiatives independently and follows through to deliver results.

- Positive, enthusiastic and growth-minded, with intellectual curiosity and a genuine passion for developing people.

- Excellent communicator and storyteller, able to simplify complex concepts, engage audiences and influence stakeholders.

- Confident and collaborative, able to build strong partnerships and spar constructively with senior technical practitioners.

- Creative and resourceful problem-solver, willing to question conventional approaches, experiment and find practical solutions.

- Adaptable and resilient, comfortable navigating ambiguity, competing priorities and a fast-changing technology landscape.

**What Success Looks Like:**

- Capability uplift: Officers demonstrate improved technical proficiency and apply their skills at work.

- Coherent curriculum: Learning content and pathways are structured, reusable and aligned with Practice standards and proficiency levels.
