• Maintain accurate and up to date training records, reporting on participation, compliance, and emerging trends.
• Champion a culture of learning and continuous improvement, encouraging colleagues to develop capability and adopt best practice.
• Deliver training confidently to diverse groups, accommodating different learning styles and experience levels.
• Complete post‑learning evaluations, analysing results to measure impact and continuously refine training programmes.
• Assist in planning and organising the L&D schedule, prioritising induction training and adapting to changing business requirements.

What are we looking for?

• Understanding of learning and development models; and the ability to engage colleagues through value‑add training, with a good grasp of the colleague learning cycle and content creation.
• Understanding of risk assessments, and Health & Safety best practice.
• Proven ability to communicate and coach effectively, influencing stakeholders and supporting learners at all levels.
• Full UK driving licence required, with a willingness to travel nationwide to deliver training across multiple sites, primarily Worcester and Enfield, with initial training in Wigan and/or Airdrie. Comfortable with overnight stays when required.
• Desirable: Experience delivering accredited training in logistics, transport, or supply chain settings.
