Instinct is working with a long-standing and prestigious education client who are looking to recruit for a Head of Learning Technology. This is a newly-created, pivotal role within a long-term, high-impact transformation programme that’s redefining how the institution delivers global online and distance education.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity to lead on and shape the digital foundation of a major academic initiative, working at scale, with senior backing, and a clear mandate to innovate. The organisation currently has a strong commercial education arm which works to deliver top-quality global programmes to thousands of students in nearly 40 countries. With impressive revenues and a wide global reach, the institution is now embarking on an ambitious rebuild of its distance learning infrastructure—and this role will play a central role in defining what that looks like. The programme includes:

• A full technology discovery phase
• A strategic decision around whether to buy new, build, or integrate new learning technologies
• A phased systems implementation
• Full go-live scheduled for September 2029
  
  
  

• Learning management systems (LMS)
• Student record systems
• CRMs
• Assessment platforms
• Learning analytics tools
• Systems for academic integrity, accessibility, and compliance
  
  
  

• Working with cross functional teams including those in academia, operations, and technology to define system needs
• Leading on the overall tech strategy and roadmap
• Leading the discovery and selection of systems and tools
• Overseeing procurement and implementation stages
• Building and managing your own team
• Managing strategy around integrating with the university’s core IT systems
• Ensuring full compliance with GDPR, accessibility laws, and international education standards
  
  
  

• Experience leading digital transformation or systems delivery at scale (e.g. Education, edtech, public sector, commercial training, or global platforms)
• Strong understanding of enterprise system procurement, development, and integration
• Ability to work across technical and non-technical teams
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks including data protection, accessibility, and international regulation
• Experience in or exposure to transnational education is a plus
