Job Description

Marine Engineering Lecturer

Temporary

Location: the East of England

Start date: 29 September 2026

Are you an experienced marine engineering professional looking to inspire the next generation of technicians and engineers?

About the role

You'll design, plan, deliver and assess engaging marine engineering programmes for a further education provider, combining practical workshop teaching with the underpinning theory learners need to succeed.

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

If you come from industry 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:

  • Designing, planning, delivering and assessing marine engineering programmes across a range of levels.
  • Delivering a mix of practical workshop sessions and underpinning theory.
  • Monitoring learner progress and providing timely feedback and support.
  • Working with colleagues to keep the curriculum current and relevant to the sector.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Industry experience in marine engineering or a closely related engineering discipline
  • Strong practical and technical knowledge you can pass on to learners
  • Enthusiasm for supporting and motivating learners

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A teaching qualification, or a willingness to work towards one
  • Previous experience of teaching, assessing or instructing

If you're ready to bring your marine engineering experience into the classroom and workshop, we'd love to hear from you.

What's on Offer

  • Support to transition into education
  • Support to work towards teaching qualification
