At Qantas, we represent Australia to the world. Our diverse country is known for our spirit, mateship, and can-do attitude. We’re resilient and strong, and work hard to make sure we’ll be right.
As Group Learning & Development accelerates the modernisation of its learning ecosystem, we are seeking a Learning & Development Manager Technology (AI & Immersive Learning) to pioneer the deployment of next-generation learning and development technologies across the Qantas Group.

You will lead requirements discovery, develop business cases for technology investments, test systems, and drive change readiness activities, engaging closely with stakeholders across the business to prove the ROI of advanced learning technologies.
You will have:
- 5+ years’ experience in learning technology, digital learning, business systems or learning transformation roles within a large, complex organisation
- Strong experience administering and managing enterprise LMS platforms (ideally Workday Learning)

- Experience supporting or leading system releases, testing and change readiness
- Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills
- Experience leading and developing specialist teams
- Tertiary qualifications in digital learning, IT, business systems or a related field (desirable)
- Demonstrated understanding of adult learning principles, the ADDIE methodology, and how to meaningfully integrate AI tools into learning design
