In this role, you'll be responsible for ensuring continuity of learning in the absence of primary instructors due to sickness, leave, or other cover needs.

This role requires strong organizational and safety skills, with the ability to maintain secure, compliant environments. If you're passionate about vocational education and supporting rehabilitation, we'd love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Deliver engaging, hands-on lessons across multiple vocational areas, adapting to learner needs and covering for regular tutors to ensure consistency.
  • Highlight employability skills like teamwork, communication, and professionalism, and integrate digital literacy relevant to each trade, such as digital inventory tracking.
  • Conduct daily tool and equipment checks, adhere to secure management protocols, and prioritize health and safety in each session.

The ideal candidate will have relevant vocational qualifications or extensive hands-on experience in fields such as Carpentry, Plumbing, or Barbering, and a commitment to adaptive, inclusive teaching. A recognized teaching qualification (PTLLS, AET, CET) or willingness to achieve one is also required.

Estimated Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 per annum.
