The Role
Reporting to the Head of People Experience, this role sits within the People Experience team where we have a direct hand in creating experiences that will have lasting impact on our people across the globe, from design right through to implementation.
We’re looking for our first Learning Experience Partner to shape and scale how learning happens at Wayve.

You’ll play a key role in embedding a high-performance, feedback-driven culture by designing learning solutions that are practical, data-informed, and aligned with Wayve’s rapid pace of innovation.
