You'll manage a caseload of learners and apprentices, planning assessments, delivering training sessions and preparing learners for end point assessment.

Essential:

  • Industry experience in an engineering discipline

  • A relevant engineering qualification at Level 3 or above

  • A1 Assessors Award or equivalent

  • Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle for travel between sites

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised assessing qualification

  • Experience delivering training or assessing in a further education setting

What We Offer

  • Permanent, full-time role

  • Opportunity to shape the training of future engineers

If you're ready to bring your industry experience into the training room and the workplace, we'd love to hear from you.
