Regional Training Manager

Job description

We’re looking for a Regional Training Manager to lead and deliver high-quality training and development across our UK franchise network. This is a key leadership role focused on supporting both Snap-on sales associates and franchisees through training initiatives, coaching, and structured development programmes. You'll play a central part in building a capable, high-performing Franchise Performance Team (FPT) and helping new franchisees succeed from day one.

Working closely with the Senior Leadership Team, you’ll oversee training delivery across multiple programmes including Franchise Development Training (FDT), Rookie onboarding, the Franchisee Sales & Marketing Training (FSMT), and more. You'll manage performance and development plans, track progress, and make sure every training initiative supports both business goals and individual growth.

A large part of this role involves working directly with Franchise Developers and supporting the early performance of new franchisees. You’ll ensure that every rookie franchisee has the right tools, structure, and guidance to grow their business quickly and sustainably. This means regular reviews, performance tracking, working with internal partners, and taking action to support development or resolve issues.

In addition to managing new start processes and rookie development, you’ll also support wider training delivery for our sales organisation. You’ll help design and deliver content, assess outcomes, and make sure Snap-on’s high training standards are met at both regional and national levels. You'll work with subject matter experts and external consultants when needed, and be directly involved in delivering sessions at major events like the Snap-on Franchisee Conference (SFC).

You will also oversee special programmes through line management of the Programme Developer, helping drive sales in Rock ‘N Roll (RNR), Diagnostics, and other targeted areas.

As this is a regulated role under the FCA’s Senior Managers and Certification Regime, you will be listed as a Certified Employee and must meet all standards for Fitness and Propriety.

What You Will Need

  • Bachelor’s degree or 6+ years of business management experience at Snap-on
  • Strong leadership and people management skills
  • Background in training, coaching, or education (sales training is a plus)
  • Strong understanding of franchise operations and field sales
  • Excellent presentation and facilitation skills for adult learners
  • Strong interpersonal skills and ability to build trust
  • Confident working with senior leaders and franchisees
  • Able to analyse performance data and take clear, informed action
  • Skilled in negotiation and managing conflict
  • Strong attention to detail, with strong written and verbal communication
  • High-level ICT skills (MS Office essential, Tableau desirable)
  • Organised and able to manage multiple training programmes and schedules
  • Self-motivated, can work independently and meet tight deadlines
  • Comfortable with extensive UK travel

If you're ready to take the lead in growing a strong franchise network and want to continue your Snap-on journey, we’d like to hear from you. Apply and help shape the future of Snap-on Tools here in the UK.
