Essential Duties
Instructional Design & Content Creation: Design, develop, and update engaging, interactive learning content for diverse, often remote, populations. This includes courses, job aids, quick‑start guides, virtual sessions, and in‑person curricula.
SME Consultation: Serve as a dedicated L&D consultant for business leaders and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), conducting thorough needs assessments to determine root causes and translate complex concepts into clear, measurable training objectives.
Facilitation & Delivery: Deliver high‑energy, professional training sessions—both virtual (e.g., DevX series, online workshops) and in‑person (e.g., regional leadership meetings, conferences) for large and small audiences.
LMS Administration: Provide backup support for the People Development and Experience (PDX) team’s Learning Management Systems, including MedBridge and Litmos. Duties include user management, course assignments, reporting, and maintenance of various state‑mandated training records (e.g., Relias, Nevvon).
Data‑Informed Methodology: Demonstrate curiosity with data by analyzing learning metrics and business data (e.g., engagement survey results, compliance rates) to inform instructional design choices and measure program effectiveness.
Maintain a high degree of confidentiality at all times due to access to sensitive information.
Maintain regular, predictable, consistent attendance and be flexible to meet the needs of the department.
Follow all Medicare, Medicaid, and HIPAA regulations and requirements.
Abide by all regulations, policies, procedures and standards.
Perform other duties as assigned.
Performance Responsibilities
Improvement in Employee Engagement: Positively influence engagement survey scores related to professional development and career growth opportunities.
Leadership Retention: Contribute to improved retention rates among employees through targeted leadership and soft skill development training.
Content Library Growth: Increase the breadth and quality of the self‑service leadership development library with new, high‑impact stand‑alone content.
Operational Excellence: Maintain and improve administration efficiency across all learning systems.
Maintain positive internal and external customer service relationships.
Maintain open lines of communication.
Plan and organize work effectively and ensure its completion.
Meet all productivity requirements.
Demonstrate team behavior and promote a team‑oriented environment.
Actively participate in continuous quality improvement.
Represent the organization professionally at all times.
Position Requirements & Competencies
Experience: 3–5 years of direct experience in Learning & Development, Corporate Training, or Instructional Design.
Technical Proficiency: Proven, hands‑on experience using Articulate 360 tools (Storyline, Rise) for course authoring is non‑negotiable.
Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including a proven ability to present enthusiastically and professionally to large audiences.
LMS Knowledge: Demonstrated understanding of LMS administration principles, including user management, content assignment, and reporting functionality.
Pioneer Mindset: Must be comfortable working in an environment with high ambiguity. The ideal candidate will take general direction and leadership support, then sprint forward to figure out the solution, write the instructions, and make creative decisions without requiring step‑by‑step guidance.
High Initiative: A bias for action, continuous improvement, and a willingness to bring new, innovative ideas to the team—we do not keep things the way they are just because it’s "always been done that way."
Collaboration & Feedback: Must be a highly collaborative team player who embraces daily, immediate feedback and self‑reflection to continuously improve facilitation and content design skills.
Preferred: Experience with video editing software (e.g., Adobe Creative Suite, Camtasia, Vyond).
Excellent oral and written communication skills.
