About the role
- Deliver end-to-end training consultation tailored to client needs and lead technical training programs.
- Provide subject-matter direction to instructional designers and learning scientists.
- Translate field workflows and job tasks into learning objectives, scenarios, labs, and assessments; review/approve storyboards and modules for technical accuracy and practicality.
- Act as the technical SME for protection & control and construction lifecycle topics (commissioning, testing, documentation, QA/QC, outage planning, energization readiness).
- Consult with stakeholders (Ops, Engineering, Safety, PM/CM) to identify gaps, prioritize curricula, and define career progression pathways (competency models, proficiency rubrics, evaluator guides).
- Assist with change-management oriented training tied to new tools/processes; plan adoption and reinforcement strategies.
- Use data & analytics (skills assessments, completion and pass rates, field quality/rework, safety observations) to evaluate impact and recommend enhancements.
- Facilitate selective delivery: host SME demos, labs, and vendor equipment sessions; coach field evaluators and mentors; support train-the-trainer where needed.
- Coordinate logistics and tech stack (LMS/VILT tools, lab setups, vendor gear) with the Training Ops team to ensure smooth execution.
- Serve as a client-facing representative for scoping, SOW inputs, and stakeholder updates—clearly communicating status, risks, and results.
- Champion and embed human performance principles throughout programs.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent blend of field experience and training leadership.
- 5–7+ years in P&C engineering, commissioning, or field services.

- Strong grasp of electrical theory and protection & control fundamentals.
- Comfort reviewing relay/IED settings, electrical drawings, test records, and oscillography.
- Working knowledge of substation/line construction workflows (estimating, scheduling, materials, civil/electrical sequence, inspections, energization, closeout).
- Demonstrated ability to direct instructional designers: write objectives, validate scenarios/labs, and sign off on technical correctness.
- Experience facilitating hands-on sessions using secondary injection test sets and multi-vendor relays/controls (Doble, Megger, Manta, Omicron; SEL, GE, ABB/Hitachi Energy, Siemens).
- Excellent facilitation, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
