  • Ensure consistency in formatting, branding, tone, visual identity, assessments, and instructional methodology.
  • Conduct usability testing (UX) and accessibility checks to ensure inclusive learning.
  • Perform periodic quality audits and recommend improvements for content refresh.

Collaboration, Validation & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Engage and collaborate with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) across all business units to validate content accuracy and relevance.
  • Partner with L&D trainers, HR teams, and business leaders to ensure learning objectives meet performance needs.
  • Facilitate feedback loops during content design, pilot testing, and deployment phases.
  • Provide guidance to the L&D team on content digitization best practices.

Continuous Improvement & Innovation

  • Proactively recommend enhancements to learning content to boost engagement and learner performance.
  • Introduce modern learning strategies—microlearning, scenario-based learning, gamification, video learning, etc.
  • Contribute to the creation of content development playbooks, templates, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
  • Stay updated on emerging learning technologies and apply relevant innovations to the Britam context.
