<p>Interview fractional leaders this week for <strong>free</strong>!</p>

World Wide Window Fashions

World Wide Window Fashions (WWF) is a fast-growing manufacturer, fabricator, and distributor of premium window treatment products, serving dealers and distributors nationwide. We're in an active growth phase — scaling our sales organization, formalizing our first structured training programs, and building toward a more premium, brand-driven future. Our culture is built on Integrity, Candor, Craftsmanship, Inclusiveness, Passion, and above all — **Growth**.

## The Opportunity

We don't have a dedicated HR/L&D function today, and that's intentional — we want to bring in someone with real depth in organizational development to help us build it right the first time, not staff a generic HR seat.

We're looking for an experienced **Learning & Organizational Development Consultant** to design, launch, and supervise a company-wide training system — starting with our highest-priority initiative: a structured **6-month Associate Territory Sales Manager (ATSM) training program**, taking 4-5 recent graduates from zero product/sales knowledge to full territory ownership (new account acquisition + management of existing accounts).

**Important note on how this works:**
you won't be building curriculum in a vacuum. We have deeply experienced internal leaders — for example, a Sales Manager with 20+ years of industry experience — who will serve as internal mentors and subject-matter experts. Your job is to design the training *architecture* (structure, sequencing, milestones, assessment), and then work directly with these internal mentors to translate their expertise into curriculum, and to develop them into effective internal trainers themselves. You are the system designer and facilitator; our internal experts are the content owners.

Beyond that flagship program, you'll build out training tracks for:

- **New hire onboarding** — company culture, employee handbook, and values integration
- **Customer service training** — service standards and escalation handling
- **Product & technical training** — coordinating with subject matter experts across manufacturing and sales
- **Ongoing skills development** for current employees, not just new hires

## What You'll Do

- Design the training **structure, sequencing, and milestones** for the ATSM 6-month program, including competency checkpoints and readiness assessment before territory hand-off
- Identify which internal leaders (e.g., a 20+ year Sales Manager) are the right subject-matter mentors for each area, and run a structured process to extract their tacit knowledge into usable curriculum
- Co-develop curriculum content *with* those internal mentors — you own the framework, they own the expertise
- Build a scalable onboarding and culture training framework tied to our core values
- Coordinate customer service and product/technical training tracks in partnership with internal leaders and SMEs
- Establish clear metrics for training effectiveness and report progress to leadership
- **Train internal mentors to become effective trainers** — coaching them on how to teach, not just what to teach
- Facilitate live sessions directly where it makes sense, but design for internal mentors to carry the ongoing delivery
- Coach managers on how to reinforce training in day-to-day management

## What We're Looking For

- 7+ years in organizational development, corporate training, or L&D — ideally with experience in sales-driven, manufacturing, or distribution environments
- Proven skill in **knowledge-capture facilitation** — the ability to sit with an experienced practitioner (not a trainer by background) and turn their tacit know-how into structured, teachable curriculum
- A track record designing structured onboarding/ramp programs with measurable business outcomes (not just "training decks")
- Experience specifically **developing subject-matter experts into internal trainers/mentors** — this is a core part of the role, not a nice-to-have
- Exceptional interpersonal and emotional intelligence — you'll need credibility with executives, tenured managers who've never trained anyone before, and new hires simultaneously
- Comfort with ambiguity; this is a "build it from scratch" mandate, not a maintain-an-existing-program role
- Bonus: experience with sales competency frameworks or B2B/dealer-distribution sales models

## Engagement

Contract/fractional basis, part-time to start with room to scale as the program proves out. Potential path to an ongoing advisory or in-house role for the right person.

- **Location:** Philadelphia, PA — hybrid, with regular on-site time expected for facilitation and relationship-building.
