• Significant industry experience in carpentry and joinery
• A Level 3 qualification or higher in carpentry and joinery, or a related construction discipline
• The ability to manage a workshop and a classroom confidently

Desirable (but not essential):

• A recognised teaching qualification
• Previous experience of teaching or assessing in further education
