About The Position

The Onboarding Field Trainer prepares new Design Consultants for success during onboarding by delivering primarily virtual training on product knowledge, systems, and company processes. The Trainer follows a structured curriculum, supports certification and skill assessments, monitors cohort performance, and uses metrics to help shape each new hire’s success. Between classes, the Trainer supports the local field team through ride-alongs, appointment observations, coaching, district meetings, and sales events. Regular in-field presence is a core responsibility of the role. The position is hybrid and follows a 40-hour work week, Monday through Friday. Start times are flexible based on the home market, with core collaboration hours from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM Pacific Time. The role is virtual-first during onboarding classes, while field time is concentrated between classes and may vary with business needs. Up to 40% of working time may be in the field, with field time potentially exceeding that target during peak periods. Mileage reimbursement is provided for driving beyond 60 miles round trip. A valid driver's license, reliable personal transportation, and willingness to travel independently within assigned markets are conditions of employment.
