Position Overview

The Learning & Development Specialist is a facilitation-heavy, classroom-focused role responsible for leading immersive onboarding and readiness training for new hires. This role is ideal for experienced teachers, facilitators, or corporate trainers who thrive in front of a room, can command a class, and know how to adapt instruction to meet the needs of diverse learners.

You will lead structured training cohorts lasting 2–4 weeks, preparing employees to confidently perform in their roles upon graduation. While training materials and curricula are provided, success in this role depends on your ability to teach, engage, assess understanding, and reinforce learning in real time.

This is not an instructional design role. The primary focus is facilitation, teaching, and learner readiness.
