Learning & Engagement Consultant in Glasgow

We’re the Business Banking Learning & Engagement team — a passionate, people‑centred group focused on elevating colleague capability and creating simply brilliant customer experiences. We shape how Business Banking colleagues learn, grow, and stay connected to our purpose, designing practical, engaging learning solutions that make a real difference where it matters most: in everyday customer interactions. We work closely with frontline teams, building confidence, capability, and pride in the service they deliver, and we’re known for being collaborative, curious, and focused on real impact.

As our business continues to grow and evolve, so does the scale and complexity of the learning we need to deliver. We’re looking for a highly experienced learning professional who can operate confidently at pace and at scale, shaping capability across Business Banking, and partnering with leaders to drive meaningful performance outcomes. This is not an entry‑level role. You’ll bring depth, judgement, and credibility — trusted to lead end‑to‑end learning solutions, influence senior stakeholders, and apply your expertise to support a business navigating change and transformation.

We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected. For this job you'll be located at our Glasgow hub. There will be a need to regularly connect with colleagues for collaboration events, this is anticipated to be weekly in Glasgow.

If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. You can also find out more about our approach to hybrid working here.

Additionally, you’ll lead end‑to‑end learning solutions at scale, owning the full learning cycle from robust training needs analysis through design, delivery, and evaluation — with a clear line of sight to customer outcomes, colleague performance, and team goals.

By building colleague capability in a changing environment, you’ll support transformation and ultimately help the business grow by equipping colleagues with the skills and confidence they need to do their job. You’ll be designing and delivering high‑quality learning experiences, making effective use of learning management systems and digital tools to create engaging, accessible content for diverse audiences.

It will be your responsibility to develop and maintain regulatory, role‑specific training, ensuring colleagues meet required standards and helping to safeguard our customers, colleagues, and business. You’ll also act as a trusted learning expert, providing clear, credible guidance to leaders at all levels on learning approaches that enhance capability and improve performance whilst working closely with senior and mid‑level stakeholders and subject matter experts to influence priorities and deliver solutions that meaningfully uplift people performance and support positive Culture Survey outcomes.

• Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes
