The Learning Experience Designer (LXD) provides strategic design thought leadership to learning strategies and programs through a blend of technical, creative, and interpersonal skills. The LXD collaborates with learning strategy teams to drive learning strategies across multiple design teams leveraging user-centered, design thinking methodologies, and helps to measure the effectiveness of the solutions. The LXD operates ahead of the rest of the team like a scout in an exploration team: a scout moves ahead of the main group to survey the landscape, identify obstacles, and find the best path forward. The LXD proactively anticipates challenges, identifies opportunities, and guides the team\'s approach, ensuring it is as smooth and successful as possible. The LXD mentors and builds the capabilities of the instructional design team and acts as a catalyst for innovation.

You successfully manage multiple complex projects simultaneously. You contribute to the short and long-term planning of work in partnership with leadership. You are relationship and team oriented. Others see you as a curious leader and trusted partner who engages others on the journey. You have experience coaching and mentoring Instructional Designers to develop both individual and team capability. You have excellent communication skills. You can influence at multiple levels to articulate design decisions clearly and guide quality decisions. Is this you? If so, we want to talk to you!
