The Field Services Regional Trainer plays a critical role in developing, training, and supporting DCOMM’s field technicians across Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin. This position is responsible for delivering hands-on technical training, safety education, and compliance support that directly impacts quality, safety, and long-term technician success.

This role bridges classroom instruction and real-world field execution. The Regional Trainer leads new hire onboarding classes, builds and delivers training programs for coax, fiber, bury drop, and safety, and partners closely with Market Managers, Operations Leaders, and in-market trainers to ensure consistent standards across regions.

When not leading formal new hire classes, the Field Services Regional Trainer is embedded in the field — conducting quality inspections (QI), safety checks, uptraining newer technicians, and reinforcing best practices. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator, credible field leader, and coach who thrives in fast-paced, hands-on environments and is passionate about developing people the right way.
