We are looking for curious, open‑minded and creative people with a passion for making a difference and having an impact on people’s everyday lives. You will have experience designing realistic, engaging learning experiences that help people practice workplace decisions, conversations and behaviours. You are also someone who is comfortable working in a setting where client interaction and research is part of the journey in creating the learning experience and enjoy working as part of a multidisciplinary team.

You will have:

• A strong understanding of learning design and behaviour change principles

• Curiosity about emerging AI tools and how they can support creative content development and learning design
• Experience with or interest in game design is very much a plus!

What will you do?

We want you to get under the skin of our business and truly understand the mechanics and the magic of how we provide our customers with experiences they love and help their employees develop new skills and behaviours.

Beyond that, on a day‑to‑day basis your role will largely revolve around activities such as:

• Create and write compelling natural dialogue for characters within a variety of business‑ and organizational settings
• Working in our custom‑built platform to create design and create gamified training (no coding needed – just a creative vision and an open mind!)
• Use a combination of creativity, behavioural thinking and AI‑enabled tools to design engaging learning experiences
• Work closely day‑to‑day with project managers, visual designers and sales to understand customer training needs and their learning objectives
• Run workshops and interviews with customers to get under the skin of their needs and identify the right learning and behavioural approach for the customers’ needs
• Help customers build confidence in creating and iterating learning experiences within the Attensi platform
• Take an active role in Attensi's development team

Our games are available across a variety of formats and platforms, including mobile, VR and PC, and you will use a broad range of creative and technical skills to create interactive narration in this role.
