Training manager Jobs in Jersey City, NJ

Senior Training Manager - Joe & the Juice - New York

Joe & the Juice is a people centric food and beverage company built around culture, not just juice, sandwiches, coffee, and much more. When joining us, you step into a high energy community where the music is loud, the bar is your stage, and your personality matters as much as your skills.

We believe in four simple virtues that shape everything we do:

• Positive Attitude
• Inclusion
• Social Ties
• Growth

For us, this means that when you choose a cup half-full mindset and welcome people from every background, build real friendships across the bar by creating great guest experiences, and use every shift as a chance to learn something new, you become more than just a juicer; like us, you continue to search and mind purpose and meaning in what you do.

From your first day, you'll be part of an international network of juicers who support each other, celebrate wins together, and push each other to grow. You will learn by doing, move through a clear Moneyball career path, and be part of a company where most leaders have earned their stripes behind the bar (fun fact: over 75% of our employees started as Juicers!).

If you love fast paced service, music, people, and the idea of turning a job into a lifestyle, JOE can become a place to build skills, friendships, and a career that can take you across cities, countries, and roles.

As a Senior Training Manager in JOE & THE JUICE, you have the responsibility for training, educating and developing all District Managers and Store Managers within your designated markets based on our internal training modules and other relevant material determined by Head of Central Ops and Regional Director. The Senior Training Manager must be able to create and deliver engaging training to all needed roles within Joe & the Juice. You will design, refine, and roll out learning experiences that build capability, reinforce Joe's culture, and support operational excellence at scale. From onboarding to career progression, you'll translate strategy into actionable training modules and ensure consistent execution in the field.
