Learning & Development Specialist

An opportunity to build something from the ground up.

Eos Talent is exclusively partnering with a rapidly expanding organisation undergoing significant growth and transformation to recruit a Learning & Organisational Development Specialist.

This is a brand-new position, offering a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious L&D professional to take ownership of the learning and development agenda, shape new programmes and make a real impact across the organisation.

With ambitious growth plans, significant investment in technology and a strong focus on developing its people, the organisation is entering an exciting phase of its evolution.

Rather than stepping into an established L&D function, you'll have the opportunity to build and develop one, introducing structure, new initiatives and innovative approaches to learning.

The Opportunity

Reporting directly to the HR Manager and working closely with senior leadership team, you'll take responsibility for developing and delivering a comprehensive learning and development programme across the organisation.

The remit is broad, combining traditional L&D, digital learning, organisational development and performance management, with opportunities to become involved in wider HR and People initiatives.

Key areas of responsibility will include:

Taking ownership of the organisation's learning and development strategy and annual training programme.
Identifying training and capability needs across the business and developing practical, engaging learning solutions.
Playing a key role in digital transformation projects, supporting the rollout and adoption of new technologies, systems and AI tools.
Designing and delivering training programmes, workshops, digital learning resources and employee development initiatives.
Developing and enhancing the organisation's learning platform and digital training content.
Coordinating mandatory training, professional development and compliance requirements.
Supporting the development and implementation of performance management processes, including reporting and analysis.
Managing external training providers, training budgets and programme effectiveness.
Working closely with senior stakeholders to build a culture of continuous learning and development.
Contributing to broader HR, employee engagement and organisational development projects.

About You

We're interested in speaking with L&D, Organisational Development and HR professionals who enjoy taking ownership, introducing new ideas and making things happen.

Ideally, you'll bring:

At least two years' relevant experience across L&D, organisational development, HR or a related discipline.
Experience designing, coordinating or delivering training and development initiatives.
An interest in digital learning, technology and how AI can enhance employee development.
Strong organisational, communication and stakeholder management skills.
The confidence to work independently, influence others and drive initiatives forward.
A proactive, creative and solutions-focused approach.

You don't necessarily need to have worked in a dedicated L&D function. We're equally interested in HR or OD professionals who have developed and delivered learning initiatives and are ready to take the next step.

What's particularly important is that you can demonstrate initiative, ownership and the ability to turn ideas into action.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

A blank canvas: A genuinely new role with the opportunity to shape and build the L&D function.
Significant growth: Join an organisation with ambitious expansion plans and considerable change ahead.
Real autonomy: The freedom to develop initiatives, introduce new ideas and influence how learning is delivered.
Digital transformation: Play an important role in the adoption of new systems, technology and AI.
Broader career development: Opportunities to gain exposure to HR, employee relations, organisational development and wider People projects.
Senior leadership exposure: Work closely with decision-makers and see the direct impact of your work.
Hybrid working: Dublin 8 location with hybrid arrangements following probation.

Interested?

If you're an L&D, OD or HR professional looking for an opportunity to take greater ownership, broaden your experience and help shape the future of a growing organisation, we'd love to hear from you.
