Job description

Lead Core Facilitator

Authority Brands Inc. is a leading provider of home services, building brands that support the success of our franchisees, as well as bettering the lives of the homeowners we serve and the people we employ.

Position Summary

The Lead Core Facilitator reports to the Director of Training and leads the team that teaches the common core—the week every new franchise owner completes regardless of brand. This player-coach role leads Core Facilitators, teaches approximately half of a full facilitation load, and ensures core and network classes are delivered by prepared, certified facilitators. The role is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and requires up to 15% travel.

Authority Brands prepares new franchise owners to open and operate successful home service businesses through online pre-work and live, hands-on training in Atlanta. Owners complete online pre-work and then attend live, hands-on training in Atlanta, beginning with a common business-operations core shared by every brand and followed by brand-specific training. The team also delivers network classes in sales, leadership, call taking, and management development, as well as trades and restoration classes taught by endorsed core facilitators. Contracted partners lead the initial curriculum design; the training team delivers the programs and owns the curriculum after handoff.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead Core Facilitators by setting schedules, coaching performance, providing feedback, and contributing to hiring and performance reviews.
