Software Trainer

This new role is for a Software Trainer who is bright, energetic, cheerful and gets on well with people at all levels and is happy to travel throughout the UK. You will be joining a very successful software company of around 75 people, who have been in business for 40 years and have a great ERP solution that covers purchasing, sales order processing, finance, warehouse management, EDI, eCommerce, stock control, CRM & sales, and is sold on premise, in the cloud and is available for mobiles and tablets. Salary to £30k plus rental car, expenses, and discounts on a range of things.

They are looking for someone local, ideally within 60 minutes' drive of Chesterfield, who is happy travelling, often for two or three overnight stays per week, and coming into the office and working from home occasionally. You will be running training courses on client sites and in the office and via WebEx, and that could be small or large groups or on a one to one basis.

You will be responsible for updating existing course material to keep in line with new releases of the software, as well as developing new courses, and will write and update user manuals, document your training sessions, and keep appropriate records. There will be a small element of project management, and you will be expected to take one day a week writing up your notes from your training sessions and informing the implementation consultants as to any changes that are required or problems that have been encountered. You may also be required to give telephone and / or email support to clients from time to time.

Initially you will spend time in the office learning the software and getting to know the implementation team. They are looking for someone who has previously delivered high quality software or IT training - that could be anything from ERP to CRM software, legal, property, DMS, clinical, field service, pensions, service management, or estate agents' software, to IT software such as MS Office or Windows 10 etc.

You will be someone who recognises the need to get the clients and users to learn and absorb as much about the software as possible, who has a warm approach, is patient, is a good listener, approachable and confident, and can explain technical stuff in layman's terms. You will have experience of delivering software training courses, and writing up course materials, as well as good communication and organisational skills, and you find it easy to learn new software and want to progress in your career.

A rental car is provided for client visits, and expenses and hotels are covered, as well as paid overtime. To find out more, contact Jake King or Carolyn MacLurg at Ambis Resourcing.
