* Coaching and facilitation skills that inspire confidence and action
* Experience designing programmes that deliver measurable results
* Knowledge of CPD standards (bonus points if it’s in professional services)
* An analytical mind – but also creativity and a dash of fun
* You’ll have the freedom to innovate with digital learning and fresh ideas

* Thinks learning should be engaging, practical and something people look forward to
* Is passionate about helping people learn, grow and reach their potential
* Loves building career journeys that people actually want to be on
