Defence Training Specialist 

Are you looking for a role where your expertise will directly empower defence customers to excel in their missions? Step into this key position, where your military background, instructional design skills and stakeholder management expertise will shape how armed forces learn, adapt and succeed. 

The job: develop and deliver training solutions that combine military expertise with strategic goals 

As a Defence Training Specialist, you will play a key role in shaping a standardised and innovative approach to training within Systematic Defence. You will create role-based and collective training solutions for SitaWare users and tailor them to their operational needs in command-and-control (C2) military workflows. This gives users a comprehensive understanding of how to use SitaWare in compliance with their standard operating procedures (SOPs). 

You will bridge the gap between the Product Manager’s vision and the Content Development team’s production, transforming military C2 procedures into powerful training products. 

Furthermore, you will: 

• analyse, design, develop, implement and evaluate (ADDIE) new training courses in collaboration with Systematic trainers across the organisation and the Content Development team 
• develop Subject Training Plans (STPs) for the Systematic Defence Standard Training Catalogue 
• create generic training scenarios for self-paced and instructor-led training 
• standardise training content to align with the Systematic standard training approach 
• design and provide C2 guidance for Systematic trainers, content creators and instructional designers 
• design simulation scenarios to enhance self-paced and instructor-led training 
• provide close support for Systematic’s military trainers in their preparation and delivery of training 
• ensure global consistency in training across Systematic’s worldwide organisation. 

You should expect some travel abroad as part of the job, about 10–20 days a year. 

The team: join Defence Service Development and shape the future of defence training 

Defence Service Development was established just a couple of years ago, and we already have a committed team of 20+ professionals in both Aarhus and Copenhagen. 

You will join our Training Development team within Service Development in Aarhus. The team’s mission is to develop and maintain the Systematic Defence Standard Training Catalogue, which supports our entire product suite. 

The team designs and maintains all training for Systematic Defence. This training is delivered through SitaWare Aspire e-Training, instructor-led sessions and interactive workshops. Our diverse and talented team includes video content creators, instructional designers and domain experts, who all work together to craft impactful learning experiences. 

SitaWare Aspire is a digital training platform that provides realistic, hands-on training for users of the SitaWare suite, a C2 software solution used in operational environments. The platform integrates the actual SitaWare application into the training environment, so users can practise with the same interface they use in real operations. 

Who you are: a skilled military professional with expertise in training development and strong stakeholder management skills 

You bring extensive experience in designing, planning, developing and executing large-scale training programmes, including operational scenario development and STP creation, as well as expertise in C2 workflows. A strong background in staff work at battalion and brigade level is essential, combined with solid knowledge of training methodologies in military training establishments. 

To succeed in this role, you are able and keen to dive into the detail to ensure that training content is accurate, relevant and aligned with standards. You will actively take part in the analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation processes. 

Furthermore, we are looking for: 

• a Defence Training Specialist who actively performs tasks while providing guidance and support and setting the direction 
• proficiency in English. 
• Finally, you bring strong stakeholder management skills. You communicate clearly and collaborate effectively with various stakeholders to align training initiatives with organisational goals. 

Please note that you must be able to present a clean criminal record and have lived in a NATO and/or EU country for the past seven years, as we work with security-classified projects. Read more here.
