We're looking to recruit an exceptional Learning Experience Designer to step into the role of Learning Experience Sector Lead at Sponge; this is a relatively new role for us, meaning there is plenty of scope to make your mark.

You keep abreast of the latest trends in edtech and learning science, and can confidently advise on the right solutions to meet and exceed client expectations.

We believe that truly unforgettable learning comprises three things: it's purposeful, it's personal and it's experimental.

Provide coaching, mentoring and constructive feedback on performance, both on
