Senior Instructional Designer
We are looking for a Senior Instructional Designer to join the internal learning team of a pharmaceutical company. The team turns training requests from across the business into finished learning content. This role sits in a small group that handles quick, well-defined work, while a separate team takes on larger programmes. You will take learning requests from the first brief to the finished asset. That means short e-learning modules, microlearning, job aids, and updates to existing courses, often on tight deadlines and with AI-assisted tools. The ideal candidate works independently from loose briefs, checks their own work carefully, and enjoys trying out new tools.
