This is a hands-on regional position that works directly with site Operations, Technical Operations, Health, Safety and Environment, People teams, and subject matter experts. The AMER and EMEA role holders will work together to maintain a consistent global program while accounting for regional, jurisdictional, customer, and site-specific requirements.

· Ensure training and qualification records are accurately captured in approved systems and that supporting evidence is complete, current, and auditable.

· Maintain and improve training dashboards and reporting so Operations leadership can see completion status, qualification progress, overdue items, requalification needs, and other agreed training measures.

· Review regional training data with site and Operations leadership, identify gaps or recurring issues, and drive appropriate follow-up actions.

· Coordinate external or vendor training where specialist or statutory training is required and ensure completion evidence is captured in approved Yondr systems.

· Support mobilizations and new-site readiness by developing training plans, coordinating delivery, validating site-specific training content, and helping prepare teams for operational handover.

· Maintain training material libraries and support version control so teams use current, approved content.

· Promote continuous learning, operational discipline, safe execution, and practical knowledge sharing across sites.

· Partner with the counterpart Regional Operations Training Lead to maintain a consistent global program while accommodating regional requirements.
