Who we are? 

With a clear vision and a strong social purpose, we bring great training, teaching, employability, and upskilling to local communities, with life-changing courses.

Since 2012, we have been giving those experiencing or who have experienced domestic abuse the opportunity to return to learning - inspiring them to realise their full potential. We see education as a tool for social justice, not just self-improvement, and we pride ourselves on making learning egalitarian and accessible.

Developing, delivering, and maintaining a key educational programme, you will ensure that our learners enjoy an outstanding experience. At the heart of our closely-knit area team, you will support and manage tutors, engage volunteers to work across various boroughs and identify business development opportunities as well as manage a programme of study. You could also find yourself involved in specialist aspects of regional educational provision, communications, quality, and teaching, whilst actively promoting our crucial work - so every day will bring different challenges.

About you:

Empowering people from all walks of life is what we are all about, so we are keen to hear from people in disadvantaged or underrepresented groups. Whatever your background, it is essential that the person has a PGCE/PCET or equivalent, alongside extensive experience of developing tutors, co-ordinating diverse stakeholders and engaging with those who are disadvantaged. Equally importantly, you should be exceptionally organised and methodical. The ideal candidate will be IT literate and able to support delivery through a blended learning approach including the use of Zoom, TEAMS and our MOODLE Virtual Learning Environment (VLE).

The Tutor and Engagement Officer will provide a supportive service to individuals in the wider community. The Tutor will work with individuals who are or have experienced domestic abuse. The Tutor will deliver Agored Cymru accredited units and Qualifications to women 18+. The courses will be delivered at Entry Level 1 and above and will include a range of varied qualifications and accredited modules.

We also have an online learning portal ' The Life You Want' which is available to all learners.

The Role

Are you an excellent Tutor and Engagement Officer who has experience in delivering vocational courses? If so, this is the perfect position for you. Are you interested in Volunteering or have you experience working with Volunteers? Are you passionate about education and have the ability to engage learners in projects? You will have an innovative approach to teaching and be able to deliver a high-quality learning experience to learners.

Working as part of a successful team, you will provide inspirational and engaging teaching and learning as well as maintain retention and high success rates across the programme. The Tutor and Engagement Officer will support the engagement of learners in the programme.
