Modern Family Law is seeking a Learning Experience Designer to transform substantive legal and professional development content into polished, engaging, and brand-consistent training experiences. This is a design and production role, not a content generation role — the ideal candidate brings strong visual communication instincts, instructional design craft, and the technical skill to build training materials that look and feel professional across multiple delivery formats. You will partner closely with subject matter experts and curriculum developers to take raw content and shape it into learning experiences that resonate with attorneys and legal professionals.
This role is fully remote and requires the ability to work independently, proactively, and with a high degree of ownership.
What Success Looks Like in 12 Months
In this role, you are the final layer of polish that makes great content shine. You take a well-structured script or content outline and produce something that looks and feels unmistakably professional — something attorneys and legal professionals are proud to engage with. You work efficiently without sacrificing quality, communicate proactively when production timelines are at risk, and bring creative solutions to design challenges. You take brand standards seriously and treat consistency as a feature, not a constraint.
Responsibilities include:
Design & Production
- Transform structured content outlines and scripts into visually compelling training modules, slide decks, workbooks, and job aids using established brand standards.
- Apply MFL brand guidelines consistently across all learning materials, ensuring a cohesive look and feel across formats and delivery platforms.

- Create participant workbooks, facilitator guides, knowledge checks, and reference materials that are visually professional and easy to navigate.
- Select and integrate appropriate visuals, graphics, icons, and multimedia elements that enhance comprehension without overwhelming content.
- Apply adult learning theories to design learning content that builds on the full learner journey, as a cohesive suite.
Collaboration & Production Workflow
- Partner with Curriculum Developers and subject matter experts to understand content goals and translate them into effective design choices.
- Maintain organized file management and version control across all design assets and project deliverables.
- Upload, configure, and troubleshoot course content within the Learning Management System (LMS), currently TalentLMS.
- Ensure all materials meet accessibility standards and are optimized for the intended delivery format (in-person, virtual, asynchronous LMS).
- Manage concurrent design projects across multiple programs, meeting production timelines with a high standard of quality.
Quality & Iteration
- Review completed materials for consistency, accuracy of design elements, and alignment with instructional intent before delivery.
- Incorporate feedback from stakeholders and learners to iterate on and improve existing training materials.
