About the Role
A Snapshot of Your Day
The Strategic Training Forecaster plays a pivotal role in ensuring that our field service workforce — responsible for maintaining and repairing fossil fuel and nuclear turbine systems — is consistently equipped with technical expertise, safety compliance, and operational readiness required to meet the demands of a highly regulated and mission-critical industry.
This position is not limited to scheduling training sessions; it is a forward-looking, analytical, and operationally integrated role that requires anticipating skill requirements months in advance, aligning training schedules with outage and maintenance cycles, and ensuring that every resource deployed to a site is fully prepared to execute work to the highest technical and regulatory standards.
The successful candidate will combine deep industry knowledge with strong analytical capabilities, enabling them to forecast workforce needs accurately, identify skill gaps before they impact operations, and maintain a continuous state of readiness across geographically dispersed teams.
How You’ll Make an Impact
- Build strong relationships with field teams to maintain an accurate understanding of operational challenges, skill requirements, and training effectiveness.
- Act as a trusted advisor to field supervisors, offering insights on workforce readiness and skill deployment strategies.
- Conduct comprehensive analysis of historical outage schedules, turbine maintenance intervals, emergent repair trends, and plant upgrade timelines to determine future training requirements.
- Maintain a rolling 12–18-month training forecast that accounts for both planned and unplanned operational demands, ensuring readiness for scheduled overhauls and rapid-response situations.
- Track training completion rates, certification renewals, and compliance records to maintain a fully qualified workforce.
- Implement continuous improvement initiatives to enhance training efficiency, reduce skill gap closure times, and improve operational performance.
What You Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in mechanical or electrical engineering, Energy Management, Workforce Planning, or related discipline (or equivalent experience).
- Minimum of 2 years in workforce forecasting, training oversight, or field service operations within fossil or nuclear power generation.
- Proficiency in data analysis tools such as Excel, Power BI, or equivalent, with the ability to translate complex data into actionable insights.
