Description
At Zuern Building Products, we believe great training goes beyond the classroom. We're looking for a Learning Specialist who enjoys working directly with people, building relationships, and helping team members gain confidence in their roles through hands-on support and coaching.
This is not a sit-behind-a-desk training role. You'll spend time in our locations, alongside our teams, helping new and existing employees learn systems, understand processes, and successfully apply what they've learned in their day-to-day work.
As a family-owned company, we value collaboration, continuous improvement, and developing great people. If you enjoy teaching, solving problems, and helping others succeed, we'd love to hear from you.
