The posting

Role Overview The Junior Trainer is responsible for supporting the design, coordination, delivery, assessment and continuous improvement of technical training programs delivered through the Synkron Training Center. Working under the direction of the Training Specialist, the role supports the full training lifecycle across Synkron's core technical disciplines, including industrial automation, electrical systems, mechanical systems, mechatronics, instrumentation and controls, equipment maintenance, troubleshooting and related engineering capabilities. The Junior Trainer delivers classroom, practical, virtual and field-based training; supports curriculum and training material development; facilitates trainee assessments; maintains learning records; supports LMS administration; prepares training equipment and laboratories; and assists in monitoring the effectiveness of training interventions. This is a developmental technical training role. The Job Holder is expected to progressively build the technical depth, facilitation capability and training management competence required to independently manage increasingly complex training programs – supporting internal Synkron engineers, client technical teams, partner engineers and external trainees, and contributing to positioning the Synkron Training Center as a high-quality regional centre for industrial and engineering capability development. Key Responsibilities 1. Technical Training Delivery: Support and deliver structured technical training under the guidance of the Training Specialist through classroom instruction, hands-on practical sessions, technical demonstrations, equipment-based and simulation-based learning, virtual/hybrid sessions and field or client-site training, across areas including industrial automation, PLC programming, electrical and mechanical systems, mechatronics, instrumentation and controls, equipment installation, maintenance, diagnostics and fault-finding. 2. Training Preparation & Facilitation Support: Ensure training materials, presentations, equipment, training kits, rooms and laboratories are ready and current ahead of each session; support the Training Specialist in delivering complex or advanced programs; and progressively facilitate assigned modules independently, including one-on-one coaching for trainees needing extra support. 3. Curriculum & Training Content Development: Support the development and version-controlled maintenance of technical curricula, manuals, facilitator guides, trainee workbooks, presentations, practical exercises, troubleshooting guides, SOPs, assessment tools and question banks, and recommend improvements based on trainee feedback and technical developments. 4. Trainee Assessment & Competency Evaluation: Administer pre- and post-training, knowledge, practical and competency assessments; mark and record results accurately; provide constructive feedback; identify trainees needing additional coaching or remedial training; and support analysis of competency gaps. 5. LMS & Digital Learning Administration: Support administration of learning programs through Zoho Learn, Zoho Trainer Central and other approved platforms – uploading and maintaining training materials, courses, assessments and trainee records, monitoring participation and completion, and assisting in converting classroom content into digital learning materials. 6. Training Laboratory, Equipment & Practical Learning Support: Set up, test and safely operate PLC kits, simulation, electrical, mechanical, instrumentation and demonstration equipment; conduct basic maintenance and routine checks; maintain equipment registers; and ensure practical training areas remain organised, safe and ready for use. 7. OEM, Certification & Internal/Client Training Support: Support training programs associated with OEM partners (Siemens, Danfoss, Heuft and others), assist with certification tracking, participate in OEM technical training to build trainer capability, support the development of internal Synkron engineers and technical teams, and support client and external training delivery including onsite sessions at client facilities. 8. Training Coordination, Effectiveness & Compliance: Work closely with the Training Specialist and Academy Administrator on calendars, schedules, attendance, records and reports; collect trainee feedback and support post-training reviews and continuous improvement; and ensure all training activities comply with applicable health and safety requirements. Requirements Education Requirements ● Bachelor's degree or diploma in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronic Engineering, Automation Engineering or a related field. ● Professional certifications in automation or industrial systems are highly preferred. ● OEM certifications (Siemens, Danfoss, etc.) are strongly preferred. Experience ● 1–3 years' experience in engineering, industrial automation, maintenance, technical support, field service, technical training or a related technical environment. ● Experience in industrial automation environments preferred. ● Experience in PLC programming, automation systems, or industrial controls preferred. ● Experience delivering technical training is strongly preferred. ● Experience working with manufacturing or industrial clients preferred. ● Experience working with OEM automation equipment preferred. Technical Requirements ● Basic-to-intermediate knowledge of industrial automation systems, PLC programming and troubleshooting, electrical systems fundamentals, and mechanical and mechatronic systems. ● Working knowledge of industrial instrumentation and controls, and equipment installation and commissioning fundamentals. ● Ability to apply engineering diagnostics and fault-finding techniques in a practical training context. ● Technical training and facilitation skills, including practical demonstration and technical presentation skills. ● Ability to develop training materials, administer assessments and maintain accurate technical documentation. ● Working knowledge of LMS administration (Zoho Learn and Trainer Central exposure preferred). ● Ability to track training data and prepare basic reports. ● Ability to set up training equipment and coordinate training logistics. ● Strong health and safety awareness in equipment handling and practical training delivery. ● Ability to explain technical concepts clearly, logically and practically to trainees with different levels of knowledge and experience.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
