Job Description

Body and Paint Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Location: the West Midlands

Start date: 19 October 2026

Are you an experienced vehicle body repair or paint professional looking to inspire the next generation of technicians?

About the Role

As a Body and Paint Lecturer, you'll deliver vehicle body repair and refinishing training for a further education provider, helping learners build the practical skills and industry standards they need to progress into employment.

You'll plan and deliver a mix of workshop and theory sessions to learners of mixed abilities, assess practical work against awarding body requirements and work alongside the wider teaching team to maintain strong standards of teaching, learning and assessment.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering Body and Paint sessions across a range of levels and abilities.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessments.
  • Assessing practical and written work and providing timely, constructive feedback.
  • Supporting learners to develop their technical skills and employability.
  • Contributing to curriculum development in line with current industry standards.
  • Keeping accurate records of attendance, progress and achievement.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A Level 3 qualification in vehicle body repair, paint or a related discipline
  • Substantial industry experience in body and paint
  • Strong communication and organisational skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A teaching qualification such as PTLLS, Cert Ed or PGCE, or a willingness to work towards one
  • Previous experience of teaching or assessing within further education

If you're ready to pass on your trade knowledge and shape the technicians of the future, we'd love to hear from you.
