Dubai, United Arab Emirates Foreign & Commonwealth Office Full time

Job Description (Roles and Responsibilities)

The British Embassy Dubai has a vacancy for a Learning and Development (L&D) Adviser (Design) to support the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office’s (FCDO) Data-driven Diplomacy and Development Team and the International Academy. The role is a fixed-term contract of one (1) year.

The purpose of Data-driven Diplomacy and Development is to help all staff across the FCDO give better advice, make better decisions, improve delivery, be more influential, and achieve better results by using good data and analysis. Part of this work focuses on developing L&D in support of the FCDO’s ambition to be ‘best in class’ at using evidence, data and digital to inform our policy and our action.

The International Academy (IA) provides innovative and creative learning solutions to meet the needs of over 17,000 staff working internationally across the FCDO. The IA’s goal is to provide professional learning and development that builds expertise and agility to enable Her Majesty’s Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (HMG) to be a world leader at operating internationally.

This role is based in the IA’s Learning Design Team (LDT). It will involve working in partnership with a range of stakeholders to lead the design and development of a new foundation level curriculum to develop knowledge and skills related to sourcing, analysing, evaluating and presenting data for non-specialists. The key to this role will be the ability to quickly develop strong relationships with important stakeholders, gain a deep understanding of their aims and objectives, and work with them to co-create the curriculum at pace.

We are looking for someone with proven experience in learning design, curriculum design and development, and the ability to design impactful learning. You should also have demonstrable skills and experience in leading and managing projects and stakeholder management.

The role will evolve in accordance with the development of the curriculum, so the successful incumbent should expect to be flexible and adaptable to changing priorities, including working across teams. The role will require occasional international travel.

**Duties and responsibilities**:
You will work with stakeholders to:

- lead on the strategic design of a foundation level curriculum of data and analysis learning that will promote a consistent and effective data literate culture in the organisation
- proactively lead and influence stakeholders on appropriate digital and non-digital options within the curriculum
- build effective e-learning products using authoring tools such as Articulate Rise/360; support the development of digital assets such as videos, podcasts and infographics
- work with the evaluation team to develop an appropriate evaluation strategy for the curriculum and products within it; ensure continuous improvement through data-driven analysis of user needs, behaviours and preferences; support stakeholders to carry out user-testing and evaluation using target audience groups and revise the design and products based on the evidence

The above list is not exhaustive and the jobholder will be required to be flexible and take on other ad hoc tasks as required, including participating in the Embassy’s emergency planning and any response to a crisis.

**Key behaviours required**:

- Working Together - Form effective partnerships and relationships with people both internally and externally, from a range of diverse backgrounds, sharing information, resources and support.
- Making Effective Decisions - Use evidence and knowledge to support accurate, expert decisions and advice. Carefully consider alternative options, implications and risks of decisions.
- Delivering at Pace - Take responsibility for delivering timely and quality results with focus and drive.
- Communicating and Influencing - Communicate purpose and direction with clarity, integrity and enthusiasm. Respect the needs, responses and opinions of others.

Essential qualifications, skills and experience
- Minimum of 5 years’ experience in an L&D design and delivery context, either in the public or private sector
- Professional qualification in L&D or equivalent
- Significant experience in an L&D consultative or business partnering role; the ability to build and maintain trusted and credible relationships with key stakeholders quickly
- Demonstrable ability to produce innovative learning design solutions; comfortable using authoring tools such as Articulate Rise and 360, gomo, Captivate, or equivalent
- Significant experience of leading and working with agile projects; ability to lead end-to-end learning solution delivery
- Proven ability to work on multiple project elements simultaneously in an environment of high activity, competing priorities, and time pressure
- Highly organised, detail oriented with an openness to new ideas and creative approaches to problem solving
- Excellent communicati
