- Personally deliver customer training sessions, ensuring high-quality, professional, and engaging experiences.
- Develop reusable resources such as workflow guides, playbooks, analysis toolkits, walkthroughs, and compliance checklists.
- Partner with Engagement and Delivery leads to identify adoption gaps, common challenges, and underused features.
- Stay current on product developments and maintain deep expertise in your assigned solutions (either Dimensions & Altmetric or Elements & Figshare).
- Contribute to a central content library (Skilljar and other platforms), ensuring materials are reusable, measurable, and globally accessible.
- Collaborate with Product, Support, Solutions, and Sales Enablement to align training with broader messaging and roadmap updates.
- Use customer feedback, engagement analytics, and usage data to refine training programs.
- Support webinars, community initiatives, and customer events to showcase best practices and amplify solution awareness.

- Strong presentation and facilitation skills with experience addressing diverse audiences.
- Ability to translate complex workflows, analytics, and compliance requirements into actionable learning.
- Strong collaboration and project management skills across distributed and cross-functional teams.
- Familiarity with the relevant platforms:
