• Planning and delivering practical and theory Painting and Decorating sessions.
• Assessing learner work and tracking progress towards qualifications.
• Maintaining high standards of health and safety within the workshop.
• Supporting curriculum delivery and development.

• Strong practical and technical knowledge across surface preparation and finishing
• Enhanced DBS on the update service, or willingness to obtain one

Desirable (but not essential):

• Teaching or assessing qualification
• Previous experience of teaching or training in further education

If you don't yet hold a teaching qualification, that needn't hold you back — support is available to help you gain one alongside the role.
