St Marys, Australia Sleeping Giant | James Lane Full time

**Shape Careers. Inspire Success.**

At **James Lane | Sleeping Giant**, we don’t just sell furniture—we help shape beautiful homes. With over 40 years as a proud Australian family business, we’re known for timeless style and exceptional service.

- Monitor participation and outcomes to improve future sessions

**Collaboration & Mobility**
- Partner with HR and leadership to ensure consistent onboarding and training experiences
- **Travel across Greater Sydney and interstate (sometimes at short notice)** to deliver face-to-face training and support in-store
- Stay agile and hands-on, this is a highly mobile and people-driven role

**What You’ll Bring to the Table**
- **Retail experience is a must Y** ou know what great customer experiences look like on the shop floor
- A background in onboarding, training, or L&D (especially in retail or similar environments)
- Strong presentation and communication skills with a passion for helping others grow
- Highly organised with an eye for detail, especially when managing checklists and learning tools
- Confidence using Microsoft Office; LMS or digital learning tools are a plus
- A flexible, can-do attitude You’re happy to jump in wherever needed and travel or by car often

- Enjoy great **staff discounts** across our James Lane and Sleeping Giant brands
- Ongoing development and support to help you thrive in your role
- Be part of a passionate and friendly team that values creativity, collaboration, and retail excellence
