  • Proven experience designing and delivering Train-the-Trainer programs.
  • Strong facilitation skills across diverse stakeholder groups, including field operations staff.
  • Instructional design experience, including e-learning, instructor-led, and blended learning models.
  • Proficient in tools such as PowerPoint, Articulate 360, Adobe, MS Teams, and LMS platforms.
  • Experience working in utilities, energy, construction, or other field-based environments is highly preferred.
  • Comfortable traveling regularly or working in a hybrid onsite/remote environment.
