The Learning & Development Specialist at LUV Car Wash is a skilled instructional designer, systems administrator, and learning architect responsible for building and maintaining the programs, content, and infrastructure that develop LUV’s people at every stage of their career. This role translates organizational needs into structured, measurable learning experiences. This position actively searches, creatively designs, implements, and executes effective methods to educate, enhance performance, and develop leaders.

Duties/Responsibilities:

Instructional Design & Content Development

• Apply adult learning principles and instructional design methodology (ADDIE, SAM, or equivalent) to design, develop, and maintain training programs across multiple modalities including SCORM-compliant e-learning modules.
• Generate a full suite of supporting learning materials: facilitator guides, participant workbooks, job aids, quick-reference cards, and video scripts.
• Collaborate with subject matter experts (SMEs) across Operations, HR, and Field Leadership to translate technical expertise into clear, learner-centered content.

Leadership Development & Employee Lifecycle Programs

• Design and maintain structured Manager in Training and Train-the-Trainer programs that equip GMs, DMs, and designated site facilitators to deliver consistent, high-quality training at the field level.
• Design role-specific learning roadmaps across the full employee lifecycle, anchored by structured 30/60/90-day experiences that accelerate time-to-competency and reduce early attrition.
• Map competency frameworks to learning pathways, defining what employees must know, demonstrate, and achieve at each career milestone.

LMS Administration & E-Learning Systems

• Serve as a primary LMS administrator—owning course shells, learning paths, user enrollment, role-based assignments, assessment configurations, and system reporting.
• Assign, monitor, and report on training completions, knowledge check scores, and certification milestones across the organization.
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders to ensure test assignments, reset protocols, and learner records remain accurate and audit-ready at all times.
• Troubleshoot LMS access, enrollment, and content delivery errors with urgency; minimize learner disruption and escalate unresolved issues appropriately.

Training Metrics, Reporting & Evaluative Feedback

• Establish and maintain a training evaluation framework (Kirkpatrick or equivalent) that measures learner reaction, knowledge acquisition, behavior change, and business impact.
• Generate regular LMS and program performance reports: completion rates, assessment scores, knowledge gap trends, and training ROI indicators.
• Analyze training data to identify systemic performance gaps, underperforming content, and populations requiring targeted learning support.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Program Support

• Support the Director of Training and VP of HR in planning and executing company-wide development programs, training initiatives, and strategic L&D projects.
• Travel regionally to support training delivery, facilitate workshops, and partner with field leadership on site-level learning needs.
• Maintain organized training records and documentation; produce post-program reports with actionable recommendations for the L&D Manager and Operations.
