Job Description

Computing Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Location: the South West

Are you a computing specialist or industry professional who enjoys helping learners build skills they can take straight into work or further study?

About the Role

You'll join a further education provider in the South West to plan, deliver and assess Computing across its programmes. You'll teach both theory and practical sessions, supporting learners of mixed abilities to progress into higher education, apprenticeships or employment.

You'll work as part of a supportive teaching team, contributing to curriculum development as well as the day-to-day classroom experience.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Delivering engaging, high-quality teaching and assessment across Computing programmes.
  • Planning schemes of work, learning activities and assessments.
  • Developing resources and curriculum content that reflect current industry practice.
  • Tracking learner progress, marking work and providing timely feedback.
  • Maintaining accurate records of learner performance and completing associated administration.
  • Contributing to course reviews and internal quality procedures.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Strong subject knowledge in Computing
  • Experience teaching or assessing learners, or relevant industry experience
  • A relevant qualification in Computing or a related discipline
  • Strong organisational and communication skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification, or willingness to work towards one
  • Experience delivering specialist areas such as programming, networking, web development or cyber security
  • Experience teaching across a range of qualification levels

If you're ready to help the next generation of digital professionals get started, we'd love to hear from you.
