Job Description

Health and Social Care Lecturer

Temporary

Location: the East of England

Start date: 16 November 2026

Are you an experienced health and social care professional looking to pass your knowledge on to the next generation?

About the role

You'll plan, deliver and assess engaging health and social care programmes for a further education provider, combining practical, sector-focused teaching with the underpinning theory learners need to succeed.

Working across a range of levels, you'll bring your sector experience into the classroom, helping learners build the knowledge, skills and confidence that employers value. You'll create a supportive and inclusive learning environment, monitor learner progress and adapt your teaching to meet the needs of a diverse group of learners.

If you come from the sector rather than teaching, that's welcome. Our client offers support to help you move into education and develop as a lecturer.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning, delivering and assessing health and social care programmes across a range of levels.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson plans and learning resources.
  • Monitoring learner progress and providing timely, constructive feedback.
  • Creating a safe, positive and inclusive learning environment.
  • Supporting learners to overcome individual barriers to learning.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Occupational experience in health or social care
  • A relevant qualification in health and social care
  • The ability to engage and motivate learners of differing abilities
  • Good organisational and communication skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A teaching qualification recognised in the further education sector
  • Previous experience of teaching, training or assessing

If you're ready to bring your sector experience into the classroom and shape the health and social care workforce of the future, we'd love to hear from you.

What's on Offer

  • Support to transition into education and develop as a lecturer
