Company Description
We’re looking for a Learning Designer to join our Product team and help us develop high-quality online learning and assessment materials across our Australian education portfolio. You might already be working in learning design, vocational education or course development. Or you might be coming from a role where you’ve developed strong skills in writing, reviewing, structuring or working with detailed content and are ready to take the next step.
Either way, we’re looking for someone who is curious, organised, has an exceptional eye for detail and can take complex information and turn it into something clear and easy to follow.
Job Description
This is a fully remote role and can be based anywhere in Australia or New Zealand.
You’ll be joining a team responsible for developing and improving online education products, with the opportunity to build your learning design capability while contributing to real course development from day one.
If you’re great with detail, enjoy making complicated things clearer and think your skills could translate well into learning design, we’d love to hear from you.
What you’ll be doing
Working with our Product Development Manager, Subject Matter Experts and trainers, you’ll contribute to the development and continuous improvement of our online courses. Your work will include:
Developing and reviewing online learning content and assessment materials
Working with Subject Matter Experts to turn their expertise into clear, engaging learning resources
Making sure learning content, outcomes and assessments all align
Reviewing materials for accuracy, consistency and quality
Supporting assessment validation and continuous improvement activities
Building and maintaining course content within our Learning Management System
Responding to feedback from students, trainers and industry to improve our courses
Keeping course documentation, mapping and version control accurate and up to date
Qualifications
You don’t necessarily need to have been a Learning Designer before. What matters most to us is that you:
Are a strong writer and can communicate information clearly and accurately
Have excellent attention to detail and naturally spot things that don’t quite add up
Are comfortable working with detailed information, documents and processes
Can learn new systems, subject matter and ways of working quickly
Are organised and can manage your own workload and deadlines
Are comfortable asking questions, taking feedback and refining your work
Enjoy working with different people to get the information you need
Are confident using Microsoft Word and other everyday digital tools
Can work independently and effectively in a remote environment
Experience in learning design, online education, vocational education and training (VET), assessment development or an LMS such as Moodle would be an advantage, but we’re open to people with strong transferable skills.
A Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE40122 or equivalent) can also come in handy but is not essential.
Additional Information
Questions about your identity help us appreciate the diversity of individuals looking to work with us, ensuring we’re attracting applications from people with identities and perspectives that are as diverse as our students.
We are an equal opportunity employer. As part of our commitment to equity, we work to ensure a fair and consistent interview process. We celebrate diversity and we are committed to an inclusive work environment.
