Be Pro Be Proud - North Carolina <-Website

Positive energy, passion, and a high level of integrity are critical for this role.

This program is called "Be Pro Be Proud", and this specific tour will run solely in the state of North Carolina. Be Pro Be Proud is aimed at engaging high school students, exploring careers in various skilled trades such as commercial driving, welding, heavy equipment operation, and more. Maybe you have a story to tell that will resonate with high schoolers looking for the next chapter in their life. Do you have a background working with and/or educating high schoolers? Are you able to engage young people in a positive way? Do you have a high-energy, positive, patient, and encouraging personality? Do you have an impeccable driving record? If yes, then we need to talk.

What You'll Be Doing

The fundamental goal of this position is to engage and excite high school students about skilled trade careers. But, a lot goes on behind the scenes to achieve this...

• We'll train you to set up this custom, double-expandable trailer (what we call the "Mobile Workshop") and to operate all of the various interactive stations and simulators onboard the trailer
• You'll travel the state of North Carolina, typically Monday - Friday
  • Specific schedules may vary from week to week, and between school districts
  • Breaks are built around the school schedule, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Summers
    
• Travel to each school/event site in a company-provided car and assist your CDL partner in the setup and preparation of the Mobile Workshop and all of the interactive components
• Execute the day's event with your CDL partner
• You'll ensure the event trailer and all interactive exhibits and simulators are clean, safe, operational, and event-ready
• You'll be expected to deliver the Be Pro Be Proud message to all of the students during these events and assist them with the interactive components of the trailer (approximately 25-30 students per class onboard the event trailer, generally about 150 students per day)
  
• Tear down the trailer and pack exhibits each day at the end of the event with your CDL partner
  
• While tour stops are pre-planned, you'll need to work with your point of contact at each school/event site to ensure the day's events are properly planned for
  
• Full training will be provided, including safe operation of the event trailer, operation of all simulators and technology aboard the trailer, talking points, and more

What You Get Paid

Compensation is a salary-based and is dependent on your experience in our unique industry. In addition to salary, our Brand Ambassadors receive a healthy per diem while on the road.

SPEVCO also offers a great host of benefits from Medical/Rx, Dental, and Vision, voluntary Disability and Life Insurance, FSA or HSA, 401k with match, PTO plan, and 9 paid holidays.
