- Collaborate cross-functionally with various RSC departments to ensure training content is accurate, brand-aligned, and reflects real-time operational needs.
- Ensure relevance and accuracy by conducting regular audits, incorporating restaurant and guest feedback (NPS, 3Ge), and updating content in sync with menu changes, technology upgrades, or process enhancements.
- Conduct in-restaurant validation and learning assessments to gauge content effectiveness, identify gaps, and continuously improve how and what we teach.
- Leverage content creation tools and platforms such as CapCut, Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, PowerPoint, and Smartsheet, while partnering with Talent Development to add to our Learning Management System (LMS).
- Champion modern learning methods by incorporating microlearning, video-first storytelling, interactive quizzes, and spaced learning techniques that align with how today’s team members consume and retain information.
