4 days ago


Swindon, United Kingdom Swindon Borough Council Full time

At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by realistic transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that’s who we’re doing it for - the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you’ll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. It’s all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.

Multiply is a new government-funded programme to help adults who do not have a maths qualification at level 2 (or equivalent) improve their numeracy skills through engagement activities, learning opportunities and qualifications.

We are looking for inspirational Numeracy Mentors who will:

- Develop and deliver/support a range of engagement and learning activities to our priority groups that positively promote the value of numeracy skills and the range of Multiply (and other) opportunities available to increase these skills
- Support individuals on Multiply programmes to identify and overcome barriers to maths learning including those with distinct needs such as dyscalculia or dyslexia and those who are neurodivergent
- Work closely with the Multiply Lead, Champions and Tutors to increase learner attainment and progression in the community and workplaces

Our Numeracy Mentors will have the opportunity to engage our learners in 1:1 and small group settings to help them know more and be able to do more and to be more confident with maths. These activities are delivered in a range of community settings and in Swindon workplaces.

Our Numeracy Mentors are paid an hourly rate for both learner contact time and agreed prep/admin time as well as attendance at meetings and mandatory CPD.

As a casual worker you are entitled to paid holidays proportionate to the number of hours worked, as it is not possible to predict working hours in advance holiday pay will be paid as a 12.07% enhancement to the hourly rate.

There is an opportunity to take the Award in Education and Training qualification as part of your own CPD.
- You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act “for the effective performance of a customer-facing role”)._

For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It’s why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you’ll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We’ll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we’ll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon by 2030 together. And you’ll be proud to say it was made better with you.

**Your next steps
