Learning & Development (L&D) Instructor (Level I or Level II)
About The Position
State ECU is growing our Learning & Development team-and we're intentionally hiring this role at either the Level I or Level II scope. That means we'll match the position level (and the day-to-day responsibilities) to your experience, education, and demonstrated training expertise. If you're earlier in your L&D career but hungry to grow, you'll thrive at Level I. If you've already led trainings end-to-end and can own small projects with limited supervision, you may be a Level II fit. At State ECU, we invest in our people through continuous learning, collaboration, and real opportunity to grow your career in a supportive community. We live the credit union philosophy of "people helping people"-and we take pride in delivering consistent, exceptional experiences for our members and one another. Reporting to the Learning & Development Manager, this role supports the full training lifecycle-from needs assessment to design, delivery, and continuous improvement-serving staff across the credit union. The impact is direct: stronger employee engagement, more consistent service excellence, and better performance outcomes. We will hire someone into one of two levels... Ideal for candidates with solid training fundamentals who excel at delivering and facilitating learning, supporting development work, and building confidence across a broad range of topics with more structured guidance. Responsibilities emphasize delivery + support + growth. Ideal for candidates who can operate with more limited supervision, lead small-scale L&D projects, and mentor others while owning broader portions of program design and improvement. Responsibilities emphasize ownership + leadership + project/mentor scope.
