The training instructor will be expected to deliver company training programmes within the specified training procedures and accredited standards, for GWO. This includes a number of theory, discussion and practical elements across the modules; fire awareness, first aid, manual handling and working at height. The nature of GWO training is very practical and the instructor is therefore required to be able to demonstrate a number of course elements in a simulated wind turbine environment, therefore requiring a level of climbing competency and fitness.
The key tasks include:
- Carry out company and Accredited training programmes and provision of training procedures as required.
- Complete training documentation and records as required
- Develop and improve training equipment and facilities as appropriate in line with the Technical Director.

- Maintain company systems and procedures including enquiries, quotations and quality and training procedures. Auditing and review of customer feedback.
- Carry out other duties as requested by the company such as site inspections, onsite training, overseas training and audits.
Experience:
The role would suit somebody already working in wind energy, ideally in a supervisory role, safety role or with suitable turbine experience. GWO certifications are an advantage but anyone with a teaching/training background and the relevant working at height experience would be considered. It goes without saying the person must be comfortable working at height.
