We are seeking a Bilingual Electrical Trainer (Spanish/English) to support workforce development in the industrial and commercial construction industry. This role is ideal for an experienced Electrician, Foreman, or Superintendent who is interested in transitioning out of the field into a classroom training and mentorship role.

The Electrical Trainer will work with adult learners, delivering hands‑on training and classroom instruction while helping electricians strengthen their technical skills and advance their careers. This position blends technical instruction, hands‑on assessments, and administrative tracking of training progress.

• Deliver job‑specific training on electrical topics including NEC code, NFPA
  70E, electrical systems, and safety practices.
• Conduct hands‑on training and technical skill assessments (e.g., conduit bending, transformer wiring, electrical installations).
• Develop and maintain training exercises and assessment stations that reflect real‑world field scenarios.
• Evaluate employee skill levels and identify training opportunities to close knowledge gaps.
• Track and document training hours, certifications, and progress using a Learning Management System (LMS) and required reporting tools.
• Maintain accurate training logs and ensure compliance with applicable Department of Labor training requirements.
• Observe trainees on practical exercises to evaluate training effectiveness and recommend additional instruction when needed.
• Coach, mentor, and support employees to help them achieve career development goals.
• Coordinate training schedules and certification renewals.
• Maintain a safe and professional training environment while enforcing safety policies and procedures.
• Conduct regular check‑ins and one‑on‑one meetings with trainees to monitor progress.

• 5–10+ years of experience working as an Industrial or Commercial Electrician.
• Experience in a leadership role such as Journeyman, Foreman, or Superintendent.
• Strong understanding of electrical systems, transformers, materials, and field practices.
• Bilingual in Spanish and English (required).
• Prior teaching, training, or mentorship experience preferred (trade school instruction or field leadership experience is acceptable).
• Ability to manage and lead a classroom of adult learners.
• NCCER certification is a plus but not required.

This role is perfect for a hands‑on electrical professional who enjoys teaching and mentoring others and wants to transition from field work into a training environment while still utilizing their technical expertise.
