Job Description

Motor Vehicle Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Location: the South West

Are you an experienced motor vehicle technician looking to inspire the next generation of automotive professionals?

About the Role

We're recruiting a Motor Vehicle Lecturer to join a further education provider in the South West. You'll deliver practical workshop sessions and classroom-based theory, bringing your industry experience into learners' day-to-day training.

You'll support learners to build the technical knowledge, practical skills and professional behaviours they need to progress into employment, apprenticeships or further study. If you're new to teaching, that's not a barrier — you'll be supported to gain a recognised teaching qualification while you work.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Delivering engaging practical and theory sessions in motor vehicle service and repair.
  • Planning lessons, schemes of work and learning resources.
  • Assessing learner work and giving clear, constructive feedback.
  • Monitoring learner progress and maintaining accurate records of achievement.
  • Using your industry experience to bring learning to life.
  • Creating a safe, inclusive workshop environment in which every learner is supported.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A Level 3 qualification in motor vehicle, or equivalent
  • Recent industry experience in the motor vehicle sector
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills
  • An Enhanced DBS check, or a willingness to obtain one

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as PGCE, Cert Ed, DET or PTLLS
  • Previous experience of teaching or assessing in a further education setting

Drive the Next Generation Forward

If you're ready to pass your trade experience on to learners starting out in the industry, we'd love to hear from you.

What's on Offer
