Job Details
What if the learning our people reach for felt as well-made and intuitive as the best experiences they use outside of work, and stuck like experience?
Cencora University is building a modern learning organization that helps our people build the skills, knowledge, and leadership capabilities to move Cencora forward. The Innovation Design Studio designs and builds the digital and immersive learning that makes that happen. We are looking for a Senior Manager to lead our LXD Creative Assets and Innovation Studio team that designs and produces learning products inclusive of simulations and multi-media.
In this role you will design and build learning from start to finish: on-demand modules, microlearning, learning paths, scenario-based simulations, interactive stories, video, podcasts, manipulatives for live training, and audio, etc working directly with portfolio managers and subject matter experts. In the first year, the defining work is building reusable design patterns and content standards that make our learning consistent, accessible, and quick to produce with quality and measurable impact.
What We’re Looking For
A learning designer first. You design for outcomes and behavior change, not seat time.
A maker. You have a portfolio of shipped digital learning, simulations, or multi-media and the technical skills to build it.
A strong writer. You make complex ideas clear, and your content reads as though it was written for the learner.
AI curious and hands-on. You use AI to work faster and better, and you hold a high bar for quality and accuracy.
A collaborator. You partner easily with SMEs and U.S.-based business colleagues, give and receive critique, and deliver on time.
Responsibilities
Design and build learning
- Design and build on-demand courses, microlearning, learning paths, and in-the-flow resources that are easy to find, start, and finish.
- Design simulations, scenario-based learning, and gamified experiences that build skills through realistic practice and feedback.
Produce your own assets
- Build and produce your own learning assets from start to finish, including e-learning modules in authoring tools like Articulate Storyline or Rise, scripted and edited videos, screen recordings, audio, graphics, and animations, and package them for LMS deployment.
- Write clear, accessible, on-brand content such as scripts, job aids, and guides.
Partner with the business
- Work with SMEs and portfolio managers in U.S. working hours to turn expertise into practical content, and know when a simpler approach will do.
- Define measures of success up front and work with Learning Measurement to evaluate effectiveness.
Set standards and patterns
- Develop reusable templates, design patterns, and content standards (including xAPI and accessibility requirements) with the studio and Learning Operations.
- Handle business content responsibly, using fictional or de-identified data in examples and following confidentiality and brand guidelines.
Reimagine production with AI
- Use AI to accelerate scripting, storyboarding, asset creation, localization, and updating content, directing it toward your own design vision. You own the outcome, including its accuracy.

- Fluency in English required; Spanish is a plus. Ability to work U.S. business hours.
- Desirable: experience using generative AI in content production.
