We are looking for an experienced Training Manager at our head office campus in Nottingham, responsible for ensuring that training plans are developed and delivered to an agreed timescale for all Manufacturing staff across our three factories.

Reporting to our Continuous Improvement Manager, you will work collaboratively with all members of the Manufacturing Management team and key people within the wider business to deliver the agreed training strategy.

• Evaluating and reporting on the impact of training.
• Working closely with the Health and Safety team to ensure training compliance relevant to a Manufacturing environment.

At Games Workshop we are looking for people who will do their best to understand the needs of the company and to put those needs first when they are at work. Because of this we believe that what you are like, hence the attitude you show to work and the way you choose to behave is just as important as your skills and experience.

In return for your hard work, you will receive 33 days holiday per year (including public holidays), matching contributory pension scheme up to 7.5%, profit share bonus (subject to GW meeting profit targets) and option to join our Share Save scheme. Oh and let’s not forget, a staff discount of between 25% and 50% on our products!
