**About us**:NPTC Group of Colleges is one of the largest Further Education providers in Wales, providing almost every conceivable vocational area of education and training including an exciting and varied programme of full and part-time courses stretching across locations from South to Mid Wales.

We contribute over £21 into your pension, for every £100 you earn.

The holiday allowance is excellent right from year 1. You have 28 days per year of holiday (rising to 32 after 5 years’ service), and as we close the College for up to 5 days over Christmas, this means up to an additional 5 days of leave.

The College is an educator and as such we actively promote and encourage Continuous Professional Development for all of our staff; we may even be able to contribute to the fees for higher degrees and other qualifications helpful to your job.

On top of all this, working at the College gives us the privilege of being involved in helping our learners and our communities succeed and thrive.
