About the Role

You'll join a further education provider in the West Midlands, teaching hairdressing and barbering to learners working towards industry-recognised qualifications.

  • Tracking learner progress and providing constructive feedback.
  • Contributing to curriculum development so that content reflects current industry standards.
  • Maintaining salon safety and professional standards in all practical sessions.
  • Working collaboratively with the wider team to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A Level 3 qualification or above in hairdressing, barbering or a related discipline
  • Industry experience in hairdressing and/or barbering
  • Confidence delivering both practical and theory sessions to learners of varying abilities

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification, or a willingness to work towards one
  • An assessor qualification
  • Previous experience teaching or training in a further education setting
