Why join us
Joining Sainsbury’s as a Learning Designer offers an exciting opportunity for a creative learning professional who is passionate about designing high-quality digital and visually engaging learning experiences. You’ll bring ideas to life, turning complex information into clear, accessible and effective content that supports colleagues across our business. Working collaboratively with learning specialists and stakeholders, you’ll help shape modern learning solutions that are inclusive, practical and grounded in the needs of the learner.
What you’ll do
As a Learning Designer at Sainsbury’s, you’ll design and develop engaging digital and blended learning experiences that help colleagues build knowledge, confidence and capability.
Working closely with learning architects, subject-matter experts and business stakeholders, you’ll take learning requirements from initial concept through to completed content. You’ll use instructional design methodologies and visual design principles to transform complex information, including detailed processes and written documents, into clear, purposeful and engaging learning materials.
You’ll contribute ideas, create prototypes and use feedback to continually improve the learner experience. Depending on the learning need, your solutions could include digital learning, visual content, written resources, videos or supporting materials for blended programmes.
Throughout the design process, you’ll champion accessibility, inclusive design and consistency, while managing your work effectively against agreed timelines and quality standards.
Who you are
You’re a creative and detail-focused Learning Designer with a strong understanding of how people learn in digital and blended environments. You can take complex or technical information and turn it into content that is clear, visually engaging and easy to use.
You combine instructional design expertise with strong written and visual communication skills. You’re comfortable working with stakeholders and subject-matter experts, asking the right questions and using feedback to develop effective learning solutions.
You’ll also bring an inclusive and learner-centred approach, considering accessibility and usability throughout the design process rather than treating them as an afterthought.
