Technical Trainer / Learning & Development Specialist

Warwick | Competitive Salary £TBA + Package | Hybrid

You will like

Delivering technical product training for a market-leading international manufacturer renowned for innovation, quality and engineering excellence. You'll join a well-established global business where you can take your practical plumbing, heating or bathroom installation expertise and use it differently – developing people, improving product knowledge and helping technical and commercial teams better understand and communicate premium products.

Based from Warwick with flexible hybrid working, this Technical Trainer / Learning & Development Specialist opportunity offers an excellent career move for an engaging technical professional who enjoys sharing knowledge as much as using it.

You will like

The Technical Trainer position itself, where you'll design, develop and deliver engaging technical and product training, predominantly for internal colleagues with occasional external customer training.

This isn't a traditional Learning & Development role. You'll combine hands-on plumbing and installation knowledge with presentation, communication and training skills, becoming a key source of technical product expertise within the business.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Designing and delivering engaging technical and product training.
• Delivering classroom, virtual and practical hands-on training sessions.
• Demonstrating product installation and real-world applications.
• Developing detailed knowledge of the company's product portfolio and competitor products.
• Translating technical features into clear product benefits and USPs.
• Supporting Sales teams with the knowledge and confidence to communicate technical advantages.
• Creating PowerPoint presentations, trainer guides, workbooks, technical manuals, installation guides, videos and e-learning content.
• Developing UK-specific installation and fitting guidance.
• Supporting new product launches with training materials and delivery.
• Working with Sales, Marketing, Technical, Product Management and HR to identify learning needs.
• Evaluating training effectiveness and continuously improving content and delivery.
• Supporting wider L&D programmes including sales, customer service, presentation skills and onboarding.

You will have

To succeed as Technical Trainer / Learning & Development Specialist, you'll combine credible practical technical knowledge with the personality and communication skills to engage an audience.

You will have:

• Practical hands-on plumbing, fitting or installation experience.
• Good knowledge of bathroom, plumbing or heating products and UK construction methods.
• Practical plumbing background and/or recognised plumbing qualification.
• Ability to understand products, installation methods and technical information.
• Excellent communication, presentation and interpersonal skills.
• Confidence explaining technical concepts simply to different audiences.
• Strong PowerPoint, Microsoft Office, organisation and planning skills.
• Commercial awareness and a customer-focused approach.

Previous experience as a Technical Trainer, Product Trainer, Training Specialist or Learning & Development Specialist would be advantageous, as would experience creating learning materials, e-learning or delivering classroom and virtual training.

However, you don't necessarily need to be a career trainer. If you're an experienced plumbing/bathroom professional with technical credibility, charisma and a natural ability to explain, demonstrate and engage, this could be your opportunity to move from doing into developing others.

You will get

As Technical Trainer / Learning & Development Specialist, you'll enjoy:

• Competitive Salary £TBA (upon shortlist)
• Attractive benefits package.
• 10%+ Bonus (company & individual performance based)
• Contributory Pension (6% Employer, 4% Employee)
• 37.5-hour working week.
• Flexible working hours and start times from 7:00am.
• Hybrid working – one day per week from home.
• Early finish on Fridays.
• Opportunity to join a market-leading global manufacturer.
• Broad exposure across technical and commercial functions.
• Excellent opportunity to develop a career combining technical expertise with Learning & Development.
• Supportive, professional and collaborative working environment.
