Are you an experienced employability tutor, or a careers and training professional looking for your next opportunity within further education?

  • Contributing to curriculum planning and quality improvement.
  • Keeping accurate records of attendance, progress and achievement.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Subject knowledge and experience in employability
  • Experience of teaching, assessing or training learners
  • Ability to engage and motivate learners of mixed abilities

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A teaching qualification, or a willingness to work towards one
  • Experience of delivering within further education

If you're ready to help learners take their next step into work, we'd love to hear from you.
