Job Description

Maths Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Start date: October 2026

About the Role

You'll join a further education provider to deliver maths teaching to learners studying across a range of programmes, supporting them to build the numeracy skills and confidence they need for work, further study and everyday life.

You'll teach groups of mixed ability, adapting your approach so every learner can make progress.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging, accessible maths lessons to learners of mixed abilities.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessments.
  • Tracking learner progress, marking work and providing timely feedback.
  • Supporting learners with gaps in knowledge, building their confidence and motivation.
  • Working collaboratively with the wider maths and curriculum teams.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Experience teaching maths, ideally within further education or secondary education
  • A maths-specific qualification or strong numeracy background
  • Ability to differentiate and adapt your teaching to varied learning needs
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • Enthusiasm for helping learners succeed

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, CertEd, DET or a Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training

Help Learners Master the Numbers

If you're ready to make a real difference to learner attainment and confidence, we'd love to hear from you.
