Subject Matter Expert - Business Ethics
Role Overview
Alchemy is seeking an experienced Subject Matter Expert (SME) in Management and Leadership Instruction to support the design and development of a non-credit online course.
The SME will collaborate closely with Alchemy's instructional design team and the client's academic leadership to create content for a non-credit course entitled Fundamentals of Business Ethics.
This is a consulting/contract role focused on course design, content creation and validation, and assessment alignment — not day-to-day instruction.

• Collaborate with instructional designers to define course-level learning outcomes, competencies, and scope.
• Validate curriculum structure, sequencing, and instructional content for accuracy and relevance.
• Review and validate assessments, including knowledge checks, performance-based assessments, and capstone requirements.
• Participate in structured design reviews, working sessions, and milestone approvals.
Educational Requirement
• Graduate-level degree in business, management, or leadership.
Required Professional Experience
• Experience teaching workforce-training, undergraduate, or graduate courses in leadership or management (specific experience teaching courses in business ethics preferred).
Preferred Experience
• Experience contributing to academic programs, workforce training, or continuing education.
• Experience creating or reviewing content, assessments, activities, and resources for online or in-person learning courses.
• Experience working with instructional designers or academic institutions.
• Understanding of competency-based education or outcomes-based training models.
Skills & Competencies
• Deep, current knowledge of concepts in management and leadership.
• Ability to translate real-world situations into teachable competencies.
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate with instructional designers.
• Attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.
• Professional judgment to balance educational rigor with feasibility.
Engagement Details
• Contract/project-based engagement.
• Expect at least one weekly working session with the assigned Instructional Designer, plus independent content development time between sessions.
• Remote collaboration with periodic structured working sessions.
• SME is expected to produce content independently; Alchemy's instructional design team supports content development.
