Job Introduction

Are you a Qualified Accountant looking for a career change? You have the qualifications and industry experience, but maybe working in finance isn't for you.

Your skills lie more with people, you love training and developing staff and enjoy mentoring young professionals. Join us as a Performance Support Coach and use your real-life experiences to guide students through their qualifications.

No previous coaching experience? No problem We provide training to develop the skills needed to be an excellent coach. What we need is your passion and drive to inspire others in your area of expertise.

For over 40 years, we've been dedicated to building careers through education—maybe you even studied with us.

We're seeking professionals from accountancy and tax backgrounds who are ready to develop promising apprentices.

Our learning approach is driven by real-world experiences from seasoned professionals like you, giving future talent the edge they need for successful careers.


What You'll be Doing
As a Performance Support Coach, your day will be filled with meaningful interactions with our learners:


  • Learner Engagement: Conduct five calls a day with learners, each lasting around 45 minutes. You'll prepare for each call to ensure you can effectively monitor their progress and link their studies back to their qualifications.
-
Target Setting: During calls, you'll set realistic and motivating targets to help learners prepare for exams and stay on track with their studies.
-
Continuous Support: Serve as a constant touch point, providing ongoing motivation and support to help learners overcome challenges and succeed in their exams.
-
Marking and Feedback: Assess learners' work, focusing on the quality of written English. Your feedback will help them improve their writing skills and meet their targets.
-
Collaboration: Work closely with learners and their line managers to ensure a cohesive support system, tracking completion rates and addressing any issues promptly.
-
Motivation and Inspiration: Inspire learners who have switched from finance roles, using your experience and passion to guide them through their new career paths.

What You'll Need
-
Level 7 academic qualification (ACCA, CIMA, ICAEW, ICAS or equivalent).
-
Passion for student success and enhancing the student experience.
-
Strong communication skills to build rapport and maintain empathy with learners.
-
Proven experience in working independently and managing workloads efficiently.
-
Self-motivation and eagerness to expand knowledge and skills.
-
Collaborative team player mentality.
-
Exceptional time management and organisational abilities.
-
Proficiency in written and verbal communication.
