This isn’t just an eLearning job.
This is your chance to reimagine what education feels like...
Digital Learning Designer
Location: Hybrid (Coventry HQ / Remote- at least two days in Coventry - to be reviewed)
Contract: Full-time, Permanent

LT Selection is proud to be recruiting exclusively on behalf of our client. We believe that everyone we connect with an employer contributes to the quality and innovation of the skills and education sector.
About the Role
This is an opportunity to design high-impact, world-class digital learning experiences that don’t just teach, but transform. The successful candidate will blend behavioural psychology, neuroscience, strong UX, and storytelling to shape how people learn across schools, communities, and beyond.
The role is initially focused on designing digital learning for funded provision, including apprenticeships and Adult Skills Fund (ASF) courses for learners aged 16 and over. You’ll be creating engaging, inclusive content that supports real-world skills and personal growth. Over time, the scope will expand to include commercial learning products — offering the opportunity to shape courses that support broader audiences and more flexible, revenue-generating learning experiences.
Key Responsibilities
Design and Build Digital Learning:
* Design learner-centred, SCORM/xAPI-compliant courses using tools such as Articulate Rise, Storyline, Adobe Suite, and Canva
* Create modular content aligned to the organisation’s proprietary learning structure (Echo, Core, Tools, Pulse)
* Translate learning science into practical, engaging user experiences
Embed Gamification and Motivation Science:
* Integrate gamification features such as progression maps, levelling, XP, badges, and challenges
* Apply behavioural psychology models (e.g. Fogg Behaviour Model, Self-Determination Theory) to enhance learner engagement
* Develop experiences that drive mastery, flow, and learner retention
Technology and Platforms:
* Produce content in alignment with accessibility and mobile-first principles
* Support platform development and optimisation alongside the digital projects team
* Test and prototype new multimedia formats
Collaboration and Project Delivery:
* Work with Learning Architects, subject specialists, and creative teams on high-quality course builds
* Lead wireframes, scripting, and visual storyboarding sessions
* Manage projects using agile workflows, ensuring timely delivery
Essential Skills and Experience
* Experience in digital learning or instructional design
* Strong capability in video editing, animation, motion graphics, and/or audio production (Adobe Premiere, After Effects, Audition or similar)
* Proficiency with content creation tools including Articulate Rise and Canva
* Strong grasp of pedagogy, cognitive science, and behaviour change theory
* Ability to simplify complex ideas into clear, visual, and interactive formats
* Experience designing for accessibility and neurodiversity
* Solid project management and collaboration skills
Desirable
* Experience with LMS or LXP platforms (e.g. Moodle, Totara, LearnDash)
* Familiarity with SCORM, xAPI, HTML5, or learning analytics
* Experience with gamification tools or behaviour change frameworks
* Storyboarding and scripting for audio/visual learning content
Personal Profile
* Purpose-led and learner-focused
* Passionate about how design feels as much as how it functions
* Highly creative, yet research-informed
* Collaborative by nature, and able to bring ideas to life from concept through to launch
