Deliver Exceptional Training. Elevate Dealer Performance. Bring the Brand to Life.

This is a unique, high‑impact role supporting the BMW retail network across Australia and New Zealand, delivering engaging training across Product, Sales, and Aftersales for BMW, MINI, and BMW Motorrad.

This is not a narrow training role—it’s a broad, end‑to‑end opportunity to influence dealer capability, shape customer experience, and bring premium brand standards to life. Whether your background is in Sales, Product, or Aftersales, we’re looking for a versatile trainer who can connect it all.

What You’ll Do

Deliver High‑Impact Training Experiences

• Facilitate engaging face‑to‑face and virtual training sessions across Product, Sales, and Aftersales disciplines.

• Train a wide range of dealership roles, including: 

  • Sales Consultants & Managers

  • Product Geniuses

  • Service Advisors

  • Parts Advisors & Managers

• Deliver Initial & Post Certification Training (ICT & PCT) to support ongoing capability development.

Support Dealer Capability & Performance

• Partner with dealership teams to build product knowledge, sales effectiveness, and customer experience excellence.

• Deliver impactful product training across BMW, MINI, and BMW Motorrad portfolios.

• Act as a trusted training resource, helping translate brand strategy into practical dealership execution.

Plan, Customize & Improve Training

• Deliver training aligned to the agreed Training Plan and global standards.

• Adapt and localize training content to reflect market needs and evolving business priorities.

• Continuously review and refine training materials to ensure relevance, engagement, and effectiveness.

• Apply modern adult learning principles to maximize learner engagement and knowledge retention.

Support End‑to‑End Training Delivery

• Contribute to planning and execution of: 

  • Product launches

  • Immersive driving experiences

  • Special training initiatives and events

• Provide input into curriculum development and delivery strategies.

• Support operational activities that ensure smooth training program execution.

What Makes You a Great Fit

Experience & Background

• Strong understanding of automotive dealership operations, with experience in Sales, Product, and/or Aftersales.

• Experience delivering training in classroom, virtual, or on‑the‑job environments.

• Familiarity with BMW Group products and retail environments is highly advantageous.

Skills & Capabilities

• Engaging, confident facilitator with the ability to connect with diverse audiences.

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills—able to influence and inspire dealership teams.

• Solid business awareness, including KPIs, performance metrics, and dealership dynamics.

• Highly organized, self‑driven, and able to manage a demanding travel schedule.

• Strong presentation and storytelling skills, with the ability to communicate complex information simply.

Desirable Qualifications

• Certificate IV in Training & Assessment (TAE40122) or equivalent (or working towards).

• Experience in training design or curriculum development.

• Familiarity with virtual delivery platforms and modern training tools.

Work Flexibility & Travel

• Up to 75% travel across Australia and New Zealand.

• Occasional international travel required.

• Future relocation flexibility is an advantage.

What’s on Offer

• Competitive remuneration package, including performance bonus

• Vehicle allowance

• Ongoing professional development and exposure to premium automotive brands

• The opportunity to work across multiple business functions in a highly visible role

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a rare opportunity to operate across three premium brands, multiple disciplines, and a broad geographic region. You won’t just deliver training—you’ll help shape the capability, consistency, and customer experience of an entire dealer network.

If you’re a confident trainer who thrives on variety, travel, and influence, this role offers visibility, impact, and career growth.
