Head of Plumbing Trade Education

Craftmasters is building something new: a best‑in‑class skills education institution purpose‑built for the modern workforce. We’re developing a rigorous, industry‑connected learning environment where students gain the knowledge, hands‑on skills, and real‑world readiness to step into careers from day one. We’re looking for experienced plumbing professionals ready to step into a role that multiplies their impact. Craftmasters is a new vertical of Full Sail University, an award‑winning educational leader with over 45 years of helping students pursue their dreams through real‑world education. Craftmasters is in a pre‑launch build phase, and this role is structured intentionally around that reality. It begins as a part‑time consulting engagement and transitions into a full‑time, on‑campus position as the campus approaches launch. This arrangement allows the Program Manager to make meaningful contributions during the development period without relocating or committing full‑time before the campus is launch‑ready. Year1: Part‑time consulting engagement, approximately 10‑20 hours per week averaged across a one‑month span. Work can be performed remotely. Year2 and beyond: Full‑time, on‑campus role in Orlando, FL. Salary, benefits, and promotion pathway apply from this point forward. The transition from Phase1 to Phase2 is contingent on mutual fit established during the consulting engagement. Role As Program Manager for the Plumbing program, you will lead the day‑to‑day excellence of the program working within Craftmasters’ academic framework and educational standards. You’ll be responsible for faculty performance, student outcomes, curriculum relevance, and industry relationships. You’ll lead a team of Course Directors and Lab Specialists, ensure instruction stays current with NEC standards and emerging electrical technologies, and serve as the primary connection between Craftmasters and the electrical industry in our market. During the startup phase you will also carry a teaching load, and should also expect to step into the classroom as needed throughout your tenure. This is a campus‑based leadership role. You’ll be present, visible, and accountable for the quality of every student who comes through your program. What You’ll Do Lead the Plumbing program including curriculum development, faculty supervision, and student retention Help source and hire instructors who bring genuine field experience into the classroom, then coach and develop them once on board Build and maintain relationships with industry employers and lead our Program Advisory Committee Partner with Admissions and Marketing on program positioning and campus events Monitor program outcomes and drive continuous improvement in completion and placement rates Ensure compliance with ACCSC accreditation standards and state and Department of Education requirements Who You Are You’ve spent meaningful time in the field at an expert level and you’re ready to put that experience to work shaping the next generation of plumbing professionals. You lead naturally, communicate clearly, and hold high standards for yourself and your team. You may not have run a classroom before, but you’ve trained people, managed crews, and taken ownership of outcomes.
