– Foster Relationships: Build trusted relationships with key personnel in the manufacturing space by becoming a sought-after advisor on critical challenges, from operational efficiency to market differentiation.

– Impact Beyond the Classroom: Work on meaningful projects that tie training programs to tangible business improvements. You’ll play a key role in shaping the future success of both our clients and the IMC.

What We’re Looking For:

– Expertise in manufacturing processes and business growth strategies (Lean, Continuous Improvement, Advanced Manufacturing Technologies).

– A dynamic trainer with experience in designing and delivering impactful learning programs in both virtual and in-person formats.

– A proactive collaborator who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is always looking for ways to innovate and improve.

– A relationship builder who can connect with manufacturing leaders and offer valuable solutions to their toughest challenges.

– A detail-oriented professional comfortable with CRM systems (Salesforce), project tracking, and meeting set goals.

Why Join Us?
