Training Executive (Permanent) in Newport

UK Wide (Remote) + Regular Nationwide Travel Circa £35,000 + Travel Expenses + Benefits

Are you an experienced trainer who thrives on building trusted relationships, influencing through collaboration, and raising standards in a consultative, supportive way? A well-established UK fundraising agency is seeking a Training Executive to work in close partnership with a national network of contracted marketing companies and their fundraising teams. This is not a 'top-down' training role; it’s about working alongside business owners and their teams, understanding their challenges and helping them continuously improve through coaching, guidance and shared best practice.

This is a remote-based role with regular nationwide travel, involving visits to regional offices, attendance at key training activities and occasional overnight stays. Acting as a key relationship bridge between charity stakeholders, the internal leadership team and regional marketing partners, you will play a central role in shaping how training is delivered, embraced and embedded across the network. Success in this role will come from your ability to build credibility, develop genuine partnerships and influence positive change in a way that feels collaborative rather than directive.

• Design, deliver and continuously enhance training programmes across a national network of contracted marketing companies and their fundraising teams, adapting your approach to suit different partner businesses and environments.
• Work closely with regional business owners and their teams to understand challenges, identify gaps and co-create practical training solutions.
• Observe trainers and provide structured, supportive feedback to improve delivery, engagement and consistency.
• Introduce practical measures such as quizzes and assessments to support learning retention and continuous improvement.
• Refresh and evolve training content, ensuring it remains relevant, engaging and aligned to compliance standards.
• Manage digital learning tools (e.g. EasyGenerator or similar), including course updates, access and basic analytics.
• Deliver 'train-the-trainer' sessions, empowering regional leaders to confidently deliver high-quality training themselves.
• Build long-term, trusted relationships with independent partners, influencing standards through collaboration and mutual respect.
• Maintain clear and simple training records, reporting on progress, completion and impact.
• Work closely with internal stakeholders to ensure training aligns with fundraising regulation, safeguarding expectations and best practice.

• Experience designing and/or delivering training in a face-to-face environment (fundraising, sales, customer engagement or similar).
• A naturally consultative approach with the ability to influence, guide and support rather than direct or enforce.
• Strong relationship-building skills, with the ability to earn trust quickly across a diverse network.
• Confident facilitator, able to engage different audiences and adapt your style accordingly.
• Comfortable giving honest, constructive feedback in a tactful and emotionally intelligent way.
• Organised and process-driven, able to implement simple systems and track training activity effectively.
• Comfortable working remotely and independently, with frequent nationwide travel.

• Knowledge of fundraising compliance / safeguarding / supporter care principles.
• Experience coaching other trainers or delivering train-the-trainer programmes.
• Familiarity with digital learning platforms (EasyGenerator, Articulate, etc.).

This is a standout opportunity for someone who enjoys working in partnership with others to create meaningful, lasting improvements. If you’re motivated by influencing through collaboration, building strong relationships and seeing the direct impact of your work across a national network, this role offers real ownership, variety and the chance to shape training in a genuinely consultative way.
