Temporary

Location: the East of England

Are you an experienced motor vehicle professional looking to pass your skills on to the next generation of technicians?

About the Role

As a Motor Vehicle Technician with a further education provider, you'll deliver engaging theory and practical workshop sessions across motor vehicle programmes, helping learners build the technical knowledge, industry standards and employability prospects they need to progress.

You'll teach across a range of levels and abilities, bringing current industry practice into your teaching and adapting your approach so every learner can succeed. If you haven't taught before, that's no barrier — you'll be supported to work towards a recognised teaching qualification.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Delivering high-quality classroom and workshop teaching across motor vehicle programmes.
  • Teaching and assessing learners at a range of levels, including full-time students and apprentices.
  • Planning, preparing and assessing learning activities that support progression and achievement.
  • Providing timely, constructive feedback that helps learners improve.
  • Maintaining a safe and effective workshop environment.
  • Contributing to curriculum development so content reflects current industry practice.
  • Maintaining accurate course and learner records.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Level 3 qualification in motor vehicle maintenance and repair (or equivalent)
  • Strong practical and technical knowledge of the motor vehicle sector
  • Good communication and organisational skills
  • Enthusiasm for mentoring and developing learners

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching or assessing qualification
  • Previous experience of teaching, assessing or instructing learners

Drive the next generation forward

If you're ready to share your industry expertise and help learners become industry-ready technicians, we'd love to hear from you.

What's on Offer

  • Support to work towards a recognised teaching qualification
