Learning Associate 

A fantastic opportunity for a hands-on L&D training professional to lead on site delivery learning experiences at Bakkavor has arisen.

In this busy and exciting role, you will be responsible for delivering learning interventions at our dynamic and fast paced manufacturing sites - ensuring our employees are not only compliant when it comes to the regulatory and mandatory aspects of their role, but also engaged and motivated through your training delivery.

Based in our factories for the majority of your working day/ night- driving engagement, building solid working relationships with key stakeholders and delivering a best-in-class training proposition, will be top of your agenda.

We are looking for someone with the tenacity and resilience to join our journey of change - as we move from Factory Trainers to Learning and Development Specialists.

Main Duties

• Training delivery and competency assessment of machine usage, health & safety, manual handling and all elements of food safety
• Supporting training needs and compliance gap analysis
• Leveraging strong interpersonal skills and engaging content to deliver learning across all available channels
• Supporting site to ensure compliance with standards agreed, through the provision of learning interventions.

About You

Ideally, you will have a real flair for developing cross functional relationships and driving training best practice to ensure employees receive outstanding learning interventions and training.

An FMCG background is not essential, however you will need to be ready for the challenge of working in this fast-paced ever-changing industry.

If you are a dynamic and energetic training professional with the ability to drive the L&D agenda on the shop floor, this could be the perfect role for you.
