Joinery and Construction Skills Tutor

What We're Looking For

We are seeking an enthusiastic and knowledgeable individual with a passion for their trade and a commitment to helping learners succeed. Applicants should hold a relevant Level 3 vocational qualification and English and Mathematics at Level 2 (GCSE Grade C/4 or equivalent). A recognised teaching qualification would be advantageous; however, for the right candidate, support will be provided to achieve this within two years of appointment. Possession of an Assessor Award, degree or equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline would also be beneficial.

The successful candidate will have relevant industry experience within their specialist area and ideally experience of teaching in a Further Education or Higher Education environment. You will possess excellent communication, presentation and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage and inspire learners. A strong understanding of health and safety requirements within both educational and vocational settings is essential, alongside effective classroom management and the ability to provide high-quality pastoral support. You will be confident in using digital technologies to enhance teaching, learning and learner progress, and will bring up-to-date vocational expertise and technical knowledge relevant to the curriculum area.

Please note that the essential qualifications, skills and experience outlined above are those that applicants would normally be expected to meet in order to be considered for appointment. Candidates who also meet the desirable criteria may be given additional consideration where applications are closely matched.
