We are looking for a Digital Learning and Engagement Lead to shape and deliver the digital experience for a UK-wide, government-funded programme supporting around 700 students entering the electronics and semiconductor sector.

You’ll be working within a small, collaborative charity delivering a high-impact national programme. This is not a traditional “content” or “platform admin” role.It is about designing an experience that students actively participate in, return to, and feel part of. You will take ownership of how digital engagement works across the programme, helping to create a connected, high-quality experience at national scale.

Why this role matters

Our programme combines in-person activity, industry engagement and digital learning.

The digital layer is critical. Done well, it:

• Keeps students engaged between events
• Reinforces learning and exposure to industry
• Builds a sense of belonging across a distributed cohort
• Allows us to deliver meaningful impact at scale

This role exists to make that happen.

What you’ll be responsible for

You will own and evolve the digital learning and engagement experience, including:

Platform

• Leading the selection and implementation of a digital learning/engagement platform (LMS/LXP or similar)
• Configuring and managing the platform to ensure it is intuitive and effective

Engagement design

• Designing how students engage with learning content so that it drives participation, not just access
• Developing approaches that encourage students to return, interact and remain connected to the cohort throughout the programme lifecycle 

Content and delivery

• Delivering and managing digital content, including webinars, recorded sessions and curated materials
• Structuring content in a way that supports ongoing engagement

Cohort experience

• Building a sense of community and belonging across a national cohort
• Encouraging interaction and participation beyond scheduled events

Insight and improvement

• Tracking engagement and understanding behaviour patterns
• Identifying drop-off points and introducing improvements
• Using data and feedback to continuously refine the experience

Collaboration

• Working closely with the Communications team to align with wider messaging and campaigns
• Collaborating with programme colleagues to connect digital and in-person activity

What we’re looking for

We are particularly interested in people who can demonstrate:

• Experience designing engaging digital or cohort-based experiences, communities or learning journeys
• A strong understanding of how to encourage ongoing participation and engagement across a distributed audience
• Experience working with digital learning platforms (LMS/LXP or similar), community platforms or digital engagement tools
• The ability to work independently and take ownership in a fast-moving environment
• Confidence using data and insight to improve engagement

You might have developed this experience through roles in learning and development, digital engagement, community building, or product/platform roles.

Experience with cohort-based programmes, digital communities, or engagement analytics would be particularly valuable.

You do not need to meet every requirement. If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply.

Provisional Interview Dates:

• Stage 1 (Telephone) = w/c 22nd June
• Stage 2  = w/c 29th June

Contract Type: Maternity Cover 12 months

Location: This role is field based/work from home - with frequent travel to Wrexham and surrounding areas required

Interviews: Assessment Centre in our centre in Wrexham on the 8th July with follow up interviews via Teams/virtual on the 9th/10th July 2026

Do you love building relationships, bringing people together and helping young people thrive? If so, we’d love to hear from you.

At The King’s Trust, we believe every young person should have the chance to succeed. In this role, you'll play a key part in making that happen by supporting the incredible partners and volunteers who help bring our programmes to life.

No two days are quite the same, as one day you could be welcoming and training a new delivery partner, the next you might be visiting a school, supporting a volunteer event, solving a tricky challenge, or celebrating the achievements of young people who have grown in confidence and realised what they're capable of.

You'll be the friendly face and trusted contact for our education delivery partners across Wrexham and the surrounding areas, helping them deliver our Achieve programme with confidence and impact. From providing training and resources to sharing best practice and offering guidance, you'll ensure our partners have everything they need to create outstanding experiences for young people.

You'll also be a support for our volunteers. Whether you're helping someone find the perfect opportunity, supporting them throughout their volunteering journey, or ensuring they have the training and resources they need, you'll play a big part in creating an exceptional volunteer experience. After all, great volunteers can change lives, and you'll help make those connections happen.

Of course, every role comes with a bit of admin! You'll keep records accurate and up to date, track activity through our CRM systems, and make sure we're meeting funding, safeguarding and compliance requirements. Your attention to detail will help ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes, allowing our programmes to shine.

We're also looking for someone who enjoys bringing people together. You might facilitate networking sessions, encourage the sharing of ideas and best practice, help organise celebrations and end-of-programme events, or occasionally step in to support the delivery of sessions with young people.

We're looking for someone who is organised, proactive and full of initiative, with excellent communication and relationship-building skills. You'll enjoy working with a wide range of people, from teachers and delivery partners to volunteers and young people themselves. An understanding of the education sector would be helpful, but most importantly, you'll be passionate about supporting others and making a difference.

If you're someone who can juggle priorities, solve problems with a smile, build strong relationships and keep things moving forward (even when the unexpected pops up), then this could be the perfect role for you.

Join us and help create opportunities, build confidence and support young people to achieve their potential. Every conversation, connection and partnership you build could be the start of a life-changing journey.

What happens next?  

For our Youth Development Lead roles, there's no need to upload a CV or cover letter, as we use a strengths-based approach. Simply complete your profile, including the screening questions. If you pass the initial screening, you'll be invited to complete an online assessment (which must be completed to be considered). We'll then be in touch with next steps shortly after the closing date.
