Join SOMFY and Shape the Future of Energy-Efficient, Smart, and Sustainable Living
At SOMFY, we are committed to transforming how people live, work, and interact with their homes and buildings. As a global leader in automated control systems – specializing in motorized solutions for blinds, shutters, awnings – we develop innovative, sustainable, and energy-efficient technologies that enhance thermal health, visual comfort, and reduce overall energy consumption.
With over 50 years of innovation and a presence in more than 60 countries, SOMFY is a family-owned French company with a long-term vision and deep industrial expertise. In Poland, we operate a strategic manufacturing site in Niepołomice, supporting both local and international markets. Poland is a key country for SOMFY’s growth, innovation, and sustainability leadership.
Job Description
At SOMFY, we believe that technical education and product knowledge are key drivers of customer experience, business performance, and long-term growth.
We are looking for a Technical Training Team Leader who will transform the way we approach technical trainings across the organization.
This is not a traditional training coordination role. We are searching for a hands-on leader and change driver who will design and develop a modern, scalable, and business-oriented training ecosystem - connecting technical expertise, product strategy, customer needs, and service excellence.
The role combines training transformation, people leadership, learning design, and close cross-functional collaboration. A key part of the role will be leading and developing a team of Technical Trainers, ensuring high-quality training delivery, strong competency development, and a culture of continuous learning and knowledge sharing.
You will work closely with the Product Management team to ensure training content and technical education programs are fully aligned with product roadmap, launches, positioning, and evolving customer needs.
This role plays a key role in strengthening competencies across employees, partners, and customers, supporting product adoption, customer satisfaction, and business growth.
In the future, the role is planned to evolve into a broader regional responsibility covering additional Eastern European countries.

Coordinate onsite, online, hybrid, and field training activities.

Manage training catalogues, assessments, dashboards, and learning analytics.
Business Impact & Continuous Improvement
Measure training effectiveness and monitor business impact, including customer satisfaction and product adoption.
Continuously improve training programs based on business feedback, market evolution, and product changes.
Team Leadership
Coordinate daily activities of the training team and ensure effective project execution.
Set priorities, support development, and foster collaboration within the team.
Build a positive, high-engagement, learning-oriented environment aligned with SOMFY values and behaviors.
Cross-functional Collaboration
Collaborate closely with Product Management to translate product strategy and technical specifications into effective learning content.
Work closely with Technical Support, Customer Care, Service, Sales, and Marketing teams.
Qualifications
- University degree in Engineering, Automation, Electrical/Mechanical Studies, Mechatronics or another related field.
- Min 5 years of experience in designing and delivering technical training programs.
- Previous experience in leading or coordinating a team, with strong people leadership potential.
- Experience working closely with Product Management, Technical Support, Service, or customer-facing technical teams.
