Training Manager

The Role
This isn’t just training. This is control, compliance, and making sure nothing slips through the cracks.
You’ll own everything related to training, compliance, and reporting across the site. That means knowing who is trained, who isn’t, what’s missing, and fixing it before it becomes a problem.
You’ll be the person holding the mirror up to the operation. If there are gaps, you’ll find them. If deadlines are missed, you’ll challenge it. If processes aren’t being followed, you’ll sort it.
It’s a role with real influence, but only if you’re confident enough to use it.
What You’ll Be Doing
Owning the site training matrix and making sure it is accurate at all times
Identifying training gaps and making sure they are addressed quickly
Ensuring full compliance across SOPs, SSOWs, risk assessments and work instructions
Managing MHE training and making sure all certifications are valid and up to date
Standardising training processes and documentation across the site
Producing reports and presenting data to senior leadership
Supporting operational teams and holding them accountable for training deadlines
Managing version control of all training and compliance documentation
Driving improvements in training processes and systems
Leading and developing a small team where required
Supporting audits, investigations and root cause analysis
Working closely with operations to ensure compliance is embedded, not just monitored
What You’ll Need
Experience in training, compliance, or quality within a logistics or operational environment
Strong attention to detail and ability to spot gaps quickly
Confidence to challenge managers and hold people accountable
Experience managing data, reporting and systems
Comfortable presenting information to senior stakeholders
Good understanding of operational processes and how training links to performance
Strong organisational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities
A proactive mindset with a focus on improving processes, not just maintaining them
What You Might Not Like
You will need to challenge people regularly, including senior stakeholders
It is detail heavy and accuracy is critical
You will be dealing with compliance and deadlines constantly
You will be responsible for highlighting issues, not ignoring them
What To Do Next
If you are someone who takes pride in getting things right, holds standards, and is not afraid to challenge when needed, this is worth a conversation
