Change your career, change lives

The Open University is the UK’s largest university, a world leader in flexible part-time education combining a mission to widen access to higher education with research excellence, transforming lives through education.

People Services is committed to providing The Open University with high-quality people solutions and is valued for its efficiency, expertise, partnering capability and service.

The role

We have an exciting opportunity for 2, innovative System Trainers to join People Services to help with the training delivery of SuccessFactors Recruitment and Onboarding for Open University employees.

The System Trainer will assist the Training Lead with the design of all training materials, deliver both system and process training and associated soft skills training, and support employees during system ‘go-live’. This will entail creating comprehensive user guides and online material to aid classroom sessions for both on system and off system activities.

Although this role is aligned to our Milton Keynes office, we are flexible on location across the UK, with the understanding that occasional onsite attendance will be required regularly to deliver face-to-face training.

• Do you possess previous experience as a Trainer, competent in developing training materials and process guides?
• Are you experienced in delivering training to a variety of audiences?
• Do you possess good time management skills, able to organise your time in order to prepare, deliver and feedback for multiple training sessions over consecutive days?

If you can answer “Yes” to these questions, then we would love to hear from you.

The full summary of duties and skills required for the role can be found within the Job Description.
