About the Role
We are on a mission to build the most effective learning experiences in the world, and we need your expertise to make it happen. Our Content and Learning team is improving our existing A-Level offering and creating our first wave of GCSE Science and Maths courses. This is a 12-month maternity leave cover position, with potential to transition into a permanent role as our team and course library expand. You will combine subject knowledge in maths and sciences with creative visual skills to produce exceptional educational content.

You will work across two main areas:
- Multimedia lessons: Collaborate with Subject Leads and Content Developers to create engaging and accurate visuals for instructional content. No prior illustration or animation experience is required; training and tools will be provided.
- Quiz Development & Quality Assurance: Contribute to quiz content ensuring accuracy, clarity, and alignment with learning objectives.

Working in a small, collaborative team, you will have real responsibility and the opportunity to drive content forward across the sciences. Where appropriate, generative AI tools are used to assist Content Developers in their workflow. If you are a quick learner, passionate about education, and excited by combining technical knowledge with creativity, this role is for you.
