For 60+ years British Heart Foundation (BHF) has been focused on transforming the nation’s heart and circulatory health. Growing income and support for our cause means we need access to the right systems, tools, and brilliant data insight. This is where our Enterprise Foundations (EF) Programme comes in to provide the best possible technology systems to support our work.
This programme will deliver cutting-edge technologies, better systems, and data to provide the foundations for growing our income so we can support the lifesaving breakthroughs millions of people desperately need.
As our Lead Learning & Development Specialist you’ll support BHF in the successful delivery of this organisational wide Enterprise Foundations programme.
You’ll lead, design, manage and evaluate engaging learning experiences that will enable colleagues to enhance their skills. Helping colleagues to adopt changes to key systems and processes within BHF, as well as ways of working and culture, you’ll stay ahead of the curve and will, ultimately, help BHF to achieve our transformation goals.
You’ll work closely with key colleagues in this Enterprise Foundation Change Programme, as well as third-party partners to successfully maximise engagement, commitment, adoption and sustainability.
