We are looking for a Training Project Manager – Power Academy. This position will be based in Raleigh, NC metro area.

Are you the person who naturally sees what needs to happen next? The one who builds strong relationships, keeps multiple balls in the air, and knows how to navigate competing priorities with diplomacy and confidence?

We need a strategic coordinator and trusted partner who can own the complete training delivery lifecycle for Siemens Power Academy. The Training Project Manager leads training engagements from intake and scoping through schedule ownership, stakeholder alignment, delivery readiness, and post-delivery closeout—ensuring a consistent, high-quality customer experience at scale. This isn't just about logistics; it's about being the go-to person who ensures every customer engagement runs smoothly while spotting opportunities to grow our impact.

You'll be the connector—bringing together customers, sales partners, technical instructors, and internal teams to deliver exceptional training experiences that help our customers succeed.

• Collaborate closely with Sales and Business Development to understand customer needs, shape training solutions, and support proposals that create value
• Identify expansion opportunities by recognizing patterns in customer requests, feedback, and industry needs—recommending new offerings, follow-up training, and larger scale programs
• Coordinate 15-25 concurrent training projects with strong attention to detail and clear prioritization, translating customer objectives into well-defined scope and delivery plans
• Own the delivery schedule end-to-end: align instructors, facilities, equipment, and stakeholder commitments while adapting to changes with grace
• Facilitate alignment across diverse stakeholders—ask thoughtful questions, evaluate options, document decisions, and provide guidance that leads to better outcomes
• Partner with Power Academy leadership on capacity planning and forecasting (trainer utilization, demand pipeline, resource allocation)
• Drive continuous improvement by analyzing customer feedback, implementing lessons learned, and developing scalable processes for intake, readiness tracking, and reporting
• Collaborate with Marketing to create customer-facing resources (learning path maps, course guides) that simplify training selection and streamline the purchasing process
