Productive Playhouse (PPH) is looking for a consultant to help us launch our very first training and development function. We currently have no formal programs in place, so this role is both strategic and hands-on: we need someone who can build the foundation while also rolling up their sleeves to create and deliver training.
What You’ll Do
- Assess company-wide training needs and create a roadmap of priorities
- Design and pilot 2–3 core training programs, such as Leadership Development or Skills-Based Training for Project Management
- Develop templates, guides, and job aids that we can reuse and scale
- Provide a 12–18 month L&D roadmap and facilitate a “train-the-trainer” session for HR and managers
Tools We Use
We currently use EasyLlama LMS, but only for compliance training. The consultant will help us determine whether to expand its use or explore other scalable solutions.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong background in both instructional design and L&D strategy
- Confident facilitator with engaging communication skills
- Experience with leadership and skills-based training (CA/FL compliance familiarity a plus)
- Ability to deliver scalable, practical solutions within a fixed project scope
- Comfortable with remote delivery; experience designing engaging virtual trainings is essential
This is a short-term contract (12–14 weeks) with milestone-based deliverables. Great opportunity to make a lasting impact by shaping how our company grows, learns, and develops.
To Apply
Please Include The Following In Your Proposal/application
- Portfolio or Samples – At least one example of a leadership or project management training program you designed and delivered remotely, with an explanation of the outcomes.
- Approach & Methodology – A short outline of how you typically conduct a needs assessment and design programs.
- Experience Summary – Highlights of your background in instructional design and L&D strategy, with specific examples of remote delivery.
- Technology Familiarity – Experience with LMS platforms (please specify if you’ve worked with EasyLlama or similar tools).
- Timeline & Availability – Confirmation you can commit to a 12–14 week project with milestone deliverables.
- Budget Proposal – Fixed-fee or milestone-based pricing, broken down by phase (Discovery, Development, Handoff).
