The opportunity.

The Quantexa Academy helps our customers, partners and colleagues become self-sufficient with the Quantexa Platform. We do that through online learning, instructor-led sessions and bespoke digital resources that let every user harness the power of our award-winning Decision Intelligence Platform.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for an Instructional Designer to join our Design & Publish Team within Education Services. You'll turn complex technical topics – data, analytics, software and FinTech – into clear, engaging and accessible learning experiences, taking projects from first conversation with a subject matter expert through to a polished, published solution.

This is a role for an independent problem solver. You'll own your design projects end to end, decide how best to approach each one, and organize your own time across several priorities at once, spotting risks early and keeping stakeholders informed without needing to be chased. You'll work alongside Product, R&D and Delivery experts, and have the room to bring your own ideas on tools, approaches and how we use AI to design better learning.

If you love making hard things easy to learn, and do your best work with autonomy and trust, we'd like to hear from you.

This is a hybrid role, with the expectation of attending the company office in central London 2-3 days a week.
