Built on 60 Years of Excellence — and Built to Scale.

For over 60 years, Peaden has set the standard in HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical services as a family-owned leader across Northwest Florida and Southern Alabama. Our well-established branches in Pensacola, Fort Walton, and Panama City have long been trusted names in our communities — and in recent years, we’ve successfully expanded into Tallahassee and Baldwin County, AL with even more growth ahead.

These locations are just the beginning. We’re scaling aggressively, and at the heart of that growth is a commitment to world-class training, servant leadership, and performance accountability. These aren’t just buzzwords — they’re what set us apart in one of the most competitive industries in America.

To support our expanding footprint, we’re hiring a Field Training Manager to lead the development of over 200 technicians, build and manage our internal training infrastructure, and deliver high-impact, data-driven coaching that drives performance and builds real careers.

If you’re a coach at heart with a trainer’s mind, and you thrive in an environment that values excellence, action, and growth — this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact.

What You’ll Do

• Design and lead technician training programs across HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical trades
• Analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) to drive personalized, measurable coaching
• Leverage Service Titan data and AI-powered training platforms to support technician success
• Align development programs with Nexstar best practices, sales systems, and service standards
• Facilitate classroom training, ride-alongs, one-on-ones, and new hire onboarding

Who You Are

• Proven background in the trades: HVAC, Plumbing, or Electrical (tech, manager, or trainer level)
• Advanced knowledge of Service Titan: reporting, workflows, dashboards, and scorecards
• Experienced in Nexstar training systems, accountability coaching, and technician performance
• Strong ability to interpret KPIs and build high-impact, field-ready coaching programs
• Skilled communicator — able to relate to blue-collar techs and present confidently to C-suite leadership
• Organized, driven, and passionate about developing others
• Able to travel throughout our North Florida and South Alabama service area (approx. 50–75% travel)

What We Offer

• $100,000–$120,000 base salary + performance-based bonus
• Company vehicle + fuel card
• Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance Coverage: Health, Dental, and Vision
• Eligible first of the month after your start date
