Advancing the world of health™ is our Purpose, and it’s no small feat. It takes the imagination and passion of all of us-from design and engineering to the manufacturing and marketing of our billions of MedTech products per year-to look at the impossible and find transformative solutions that turn dreams into possibilities.\n\nJob Description\nThe role leads the training specialist team and partners with Operations, Engineering, EHS, and HR to design, deliver, and verify the effectiveness of training. The Training Manager ensures training records are complete, accurate, and inspection-ready, that training is consistent across all shifts, and that training-related root causes identified through nonconformances, CAPAs, complaints, and audits are corrected effectively and sustainably. The role builds an effective, hands-on training program for floor associates and champions a strong quality culture in which every associate understands their impact on product quality and patient safety. As a key member of the Pharma Center of Excellence (COE), the role helps build out the Pharma COE training program and supports the transformation of both sites.\nTraining System Ownership and Compliance\nOwn the site training procedure(s) and the training and qualification process, ensuring compliance with 21 CFR Parts 210/211 (pharmaceutical cGMP), 21 CFR Part 820 (QMSR), 21 CFR Part 4 (combination products), ISO 13485:2016, applicable ICH guidelines (Q7, Q9, Q10), EU GMP / PIC/S where applicable, BD corporate requirements, and other applicable regulatory agency expectations.\nEstablish and maintain a role-based training matrix/curricula for every department and job role, in collaboration with department leaders and Quality, and ensure it is updated when procedures, processes, equipment, or roles change.\nEnsure no associate performs a GMP task without documented, current training and, where required, on-the-job qualification or certification.\nEnsure timely assignment and completion of training for new and revised controlled documents (SOPs, work instructions, forms) prior to their effective date or use, and escalate overdue training to management.\nAdminister and maintain data integrity of the Learning Management System (LMS), including curricula mapping, user access, record accuracy, and periodic reconciliation against the training matrix.\nEnsure training records meet Good Documentation Practices (GDP) and ALCOA+ principles and are retrievable for audits and inspections.\nTraining Effectiveness and Quality Linkage\nDefine and apply risk-based methods to verify training effectiveness (e.g., knowledge checks, observed demonstrations, qualification sign-offs, and performance indicators such as error and deviation trends).\nPartner with Quality on nonconformance, CAPA, complaint, and audit investigations to assess whether training is a contributing or root cause; avoid using retraining as a default corrective action unless supported by root cause analysis.\nDevelop and execute training-related CAPA actions and provide objective evidence of effectiveness within committed timelines.\nTrend human-error and training-related events, identify systemic gaps, and drive improvements in training content, delivery, and process design.\nEnsure cGMP, GDP, data integrity (21 CFR Part 11 and FDA data integrity guidance), and quality-awareness training is delivered at onboarding and refreshed at defined intervals, consistent with the 21 CFR 211.25 requirement for continuing GMP training.\nInclude pharmaceutical-specific training where applicable, such as aseptic technique and gowning qualification, contamination control, cleaning and line clearance, batch record execution, and handling of APIs and materials.\nProgram Development and Delivery\nDesign, develop, and maintain training content (structured on-the-job training, task documents, videos, presentations, job aids) that is accurate, current, and aligned to controlled procedures.\nLead the trainer/qualifier program, including selection, certification, and periodic requalification of on-the-job trainers.\nLead and continuously improve new-associate onboarding to ensure associates are qualified before independent work.\nEnsure training content and delivery are consistent across all shifts and production areas.\nDevelop cross-training and certification programs with Operations, Engineering, and EHS to increase workforce flexibility without compromising compliance.\nSupport site goals with strategic curricula, including Lean / Continuous Improvement and leadership development as needed.\nHands-On Floor Associate Training Program\nBuild and own a structured, hands-on training program for floor associates that relies on demonstration and practice at the point of use, not just reading SOPs or classroom sessions.\nImplement a standardized on-the-job training method (e.g., Tell-Show-Do-Review / Job Instruction model) used consistently by all trainers on all shifts.\nEstablish defined proficiency levels for each operation (e.g., in training, qualified, trainer) with observed demonstration sign-off by a qualified trainer before an associate works independently.\nDevelop visual, operator-friendly training aids at the workstation (one-point lessons, visual work instructions, defect libraries, good/bad part boards) that align with controlled documents.\nPartner with Engineering and Operations to set up training cells, simulation stations, or offline practice areas so associates can build skills without affecting production or product quality.\nMaintain a skills/flexibility board for each area showing who is qualified on which operations, to support staffing, cross-training, and coverage across shifts.\nConduct regular floor observations (Gemba walks) to confirm associates follow procedures as trained; use findings to improve training content and coaching.\nEnsure periodic requalification and refresher training for critical-to-quality operations, inspection tasks, and operations with recurring errors.\nQuality Culture\nLead site quality culture initiatives with Quality leadership, so associates understand how their work affects product quality and patient safety (including Line-of-Sight to Patient / Voice of the Patient sessions).\nEmbed quality behaviors in all training: following procedures as written, Good Documentation Practices in real time, stopping and escalating when something is not right, and speaking up without fear.\nPromote a “Right First Time” mindset and teach associates to recognize, contain, and report defects, deviations, and near misses.\nDevelop quality awareness and data integrity modules for onboarding and annual refreshers, using real site examples (e.g., recent nonconformances, complaints, and audit observations).\nEquip supervisors and team leads to coach quality behaviors on the floor and reinforce them through daily tier meetings and recognition programs.\nMeasure quality culture through associate surveys, observation results, and leading indicators (e.g., near-miss reporting, GDP errors, human-error deviations) and report trends to leadership.\nPharma COE Training Program and Site Transformation\nServe as a core member of the Pharma Center of Excellence (COE) team, helping design and build out a standard COE training program for the El Paso and Sandy sites.\nHarmonize training procedures, curricula, training matrices, LMS setup, and on-the-job qualification methods across both sites, with site-specific content only where processes truly differ.\nBuild a single COE training framework that covers both pharmaceutical cGMP (21 CFR 210/211, ICH Q7/Q9/Q10, EU GMP where applicable) and medical device / combination product requirements (21 CFR 820, 21 CFR Part 4, ISO 13485).\nLead the training and qualification workstream for site transformation projects (e.g., new products, lines, equipment, processes, and system changes) so associates are trained and qualified before go-live.\nAssess current training maturity at each site, define gaps against the COE standard, and run a prioritized roadmap with clear milestones to close them.\nBuild training and change-readiness plans that help associates and leaders adopt new ways of working during transformation.\nShare best practices between sites, and build a network of site trainers and subject matter experts to sustain the COE program.\nReport COE training program progress, risks, and metrics to Pharma COE, Quality, and Operations leadership.\nMetrics, Audit Readiness, and Reporting\nEstablish and report training KPIs (e.g., on-time completion, overdue training, qualification status, training-related deviations/CAPAs, effectiveness results) at site Quality Management Review and operations meetings.\nServe as the site subject matter expert for training during internal audits, corporate audits, notified body audits, and FDA inspections; present the training system and records.\nPerform periodic self-inspections of the training system and drive closure of any identified gaps.\nLeadership\nLead, coach, and develop Training Specialists; set goals, conduct regular one-on-ones, and complete annual performance reviews.\nProvide regular status updates and escalations to Quality leadership, and keep Operations leadership informed, on training compliance risks and issues.\nComply with all local BD quality policies, procedures, and practices, and with all local, state, federal, and BD safety regulations, policies, and procedures, including RCRA hazardous waste regulations.\nThis is not intended to be an all-inclusive listing of duties.
