We are currently seeking to add a Manufacturing Training Specialist to our Operations team. This role is necessary to support our increasing production demands and ensure continued operational efficiency.
This is a hands-on role responsible for training manufacturing employees to safely, consistently, and efficiently operate production equipment and understand manufacturing processes. The right candidate will play a critical role in accelerating onboarding, standardizing work practices, and improving overall performance through structured, practical training.
The person we want is a hands-on mentor who thrives on the production floor, possessing the unique ability to break down complex machinery operations into clear, teachable steps for others. You are a process-driven expert dedicated to replacing informal shadowing with structured, measurable training programs that guarantee safety and operational excellence.

Responsibilities
About You
In this role, you’ll work side-by-side with the Training Development Team, Production, Quality, and Operations leadership to identify skill gaps and build training that directly improves performance on the floor. You will spend significant time on the production floor identifying training needs, developing training programs, coaching trainers, reinforcing standard work, and ensuring employees understand the manufacturing processes and procedures.
You will design and deliver structured, repeatable training programs that move away from informal “shadowing” and toward clear, measurable skill development.
