Full job description

Position: Learning & Development Lead
Location: Labman HQ, Stokesley, North Yorkshire
Salary: £50,000 - £60,000 (based on experience)
Employment Type: Full-Time (Monday - Friday 37.5hrs)

About the Role

At Labman Automation, we design and build bespoke robotic systems that enable science through technology.

We're looking for an experienced Learning & Development Lead to establish and shape our L&D function as we continue to grow.

We already have strong technical knowledge across the business and a comprehensive range of technical training resources. What we now need is someone who can bring structure, consistency and direction to how we develop people across the business - building on our existing technical capability while strengthening development in leadership, communication and broader professional skills. This role is about bringing that together into a coherent, scalable approach.

You'll define the L&D strategy, put the right frameworks and tools in place, and work closely with leaders across the business to identify skills gaps and build clear development pathways. Alongside this, you'll be hands-on in delivery - designing and facilitating engaging training sessions (around 25% of your time).

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys both building and doing: shaping an L&D function that fits a highly technical, non-corporate environment, while personally delivering high-quality learning experiences.

What You'll Do:

Build and own the company-wide L&D strategy, aligned to business goals and growth plans
Set up and refine L&D processes, tools and ways of working as the function grows
Lead Training Needs Analysis across all departments and create role/team/individual learning plans
Manage the L&D budget, external training providers, and develop internal facilitators
Measure learning impact using clear metrics/KPIs (e.g., time-to-competence, completion, leadership effectiveness)
Partner with engineering and functional leaders to support technical training and development pathways
Support creation/improvement of competence frameworks where needed
Design and deliver programmes that strengthen leadership and people skills (coaching, feedback, communication, leading teams)
Support managers with practical tools for objectives, reviews and team development
Work closely with our In Education Coordinator supporting apprentices/HNC/HND/degree learning pathways and college
Own and evolve onboarding so new starters integrate quickly and effectively
Promote a culture of learning through knowledge-sharing, mentoring and employee-led learning clubs

What You'll Need:

Proven experience developing and implementing an L&D strategy within an organisation
Experience establishing L&D approaches/practice in a growing business (ideally 150–350 people
Confidence designing technical upskilling and professional/leadership development programmes
Strong facilitation and presentation skills - able to deliver interactive, engaging training
Pragmatic, creative approach suited to a high-growth, non-corporate environment
Comfortable using data and feedback to evaluate and improve learning initiatives
Understanding of adult learning principles and modern L&D methods/tech

Desirable:

Background in engineering, technology or complex environments
Experience supporting early-career development
CIPD qualification

Company Benefits:

33 days annual holiday (rising to 38 over 5 years) inc. public holidays
Private Healthcare with Aviva
5% employer pension (no upper earnings cap)
Travel opportunities in various roles
Enhanced maternity pay (long service applicable)
Enhanced paternity leave
CPD support and annual subscription to appropriate body covered
Free in-house gym, squash, bouldering wall, and countless clubs

Labman Values:

In it together – We're a team; a community of mutual support
Excellence – Working and delivering at the very highest quality
Humility – Respecting yourself and others
Sustainability – Recognition that we have an impact on our planet, our company and our community
Fun – Enjoyment in your work
