You’ll work closely with teams across HR and the wider organisation to understand learning needs, create effective solutions and ensure colleagues have the knowledge and skills to succeed. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to drive impact, bring creativity to L&D, and influence how we shape a high‑performing, people‑focused culture.

1. Designing and delivering engaging learning programmes—both in person and through digital platforms

5. Supporting the design and delivery of a great onboarding experience for new starters
6. Tracking, evaluating and reporting on the effectiveness of learning programmes, providing insights and recommendations for improvement
7. Contributing to organisation‑wide programmes and business change projects by delivering essential skills and knowledge training
8. Working with external suppliers of digital learning tools and technology
9. Staying ahead of trends and best practices in learning and development
10. Supporting the Senior L&D Manager and wider HR team with key priorities
About You

12. Experience working in a regulated environment (FCA or SRA experience ideal)
13. Confidence using technology‑based learning platforms and digital facilitation tools
14. Excellent relationship‑building and influencing skills at all levels
15. Experience conducting learning needs analysis and evaluating learning impact
16. Able to thrive in a multi‑site, fast‑paced environment
17. Well‑organised, able to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines
18. Experience working within a central HR or people function
19. CIPD Training Certificate (or equivalent) – desirable

Here, you’ll be part of a collaborative HR community where development, innovation and continuous improvement are genuinely valued. You’ll have the freedom to bring new ideas, lead impactful projects and shape initiatives that help our colleagues do their best work. We offer supportive leadership, opportunities to grow your career and access to a wide range of professional development resources.

Our Benefits - What We Can Offer You
20. 25 days holidays as standard plus bank holidays - You can ‘buy’ up to 35hrs of extra holiday too.
21. Generous and flexible pension schemes.
22. Volunteering days – Two days of volunteering every year for a cause of your choice (fully paid)
23. Westfield Health membership, offering refunds on medical services alongside our Aviva Digital GP services.

We also offer a wide range of well-being initiatives to encourage positive mental health both in and out of the workplace and to make sure you’re fully supported. This includes our Flexible by Choice programme which gives our colleagues more choice over a hybrid way of working subject to role, team and client requirements.

We have been ranked in the Best Workplaces for Wellbeing for Large Organisations for 2024!

Our responsible business programmes are fundamental to who we are and our purpose. We’re committed to being a diverse and inclusive workplace where our colleagues can flourish, and we have established a number of inclusion network groups across our business to support this aim. 

Our commitment to Social Responsibility, community investment activity and tackling climate change is a fundamental part of who we are. It’s made up of four strands: Our People, Our Community, Our Environment and Our Pro Bono.
