Duration: 6 Months (Contract to Hire)

We are looking for a New Hire/Onboarding Training Specialist II (LMS)

Our client is looking for a sharp, people-first Training Specialist to lead employee development. This is not a broad HR role; it’s a specialized, high-impact position focused on owning and building scalable onboarding and training programs that drive performance.

You’ll play a critical role in shaping the employee experience from first touch to long-term success, partnering closely with leadership to build high-performing teams and develop the infrastructure that helps them thrive. If you’re just as comfortable creating a learning strategy as you are building out an LMS module, this role is for you.

Cannabis industry experience is a major plus—we move fast, operate across multiple states, and need someone who understands the nuance of recruiting and training in a tightly regulated, evolving space.

Onboarding & Talent Development

• Design and deliver scalable onboarding programs that ramp new hires quickly
• Manage and improve a structured 30-60-90 day new hire success framework
• Build and maintain SOPs , onboarding decks, and functional training guides
• Leverage a Learning Management System ( LMS ) to deliver and track training programs—experience with Trainual, Lessonly, TalentLMS, or similar tools preferred
• Create content and workflows within the LMS; an instructional design background is a huge plus
• Partner cross-functionally to drive a consistent, high-quality learning experience across teams

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in full-cycle recruiting and onboarding/training delivery
• Strong experience managing or building within a Learning Management System
• Ability to create engaging, structured content—especially for remote or multi-location teams
• Highly organized with excellent communication and follow-through
• Experience in cannabis or other regulated, high-growth industries is a strong advantage
• An instructional design, enablement, or L&D background is a major bonus
• Thrives in a fast-paced environment and loves building from the ground up
