Job Description
Are you an experienced and skilled practitioner in brickwork or groundwork and looking for something different? Are you keen to influence and train the next generation of construction specialists and have a positive effect on our young people and their communities by providing high quality training and support? This is a unique opportunity to work in a fantastic department at The College of West Anglia.
JOB TITLE: LECTURER – BRICKWORK/ GROUNDWORK
LOCATION: WISBECH
HOURS: AD HOC (LIKELY TO BE 16 PER WEEK OVER TWO DAYS INITIALLY)
SALARY: £26.85 – £33.86 PER HOUR (INCLUSIVE OF ENHANCEMENT FOR ANNUAL LEAVE AND ADMIN TIME) (£31,904 – £40,233 FTE)
The successful candidate will hold a minimum of a relevant level two qualification, although a level three qualification would be an advantage. Whilst teaching in further education is not essential it is a distinct advantage. They will be able to deliver both practical and classroom based theory sessions.
Don’t have a teaching qualification? It doesn’t matter. We will support you to achieve this through mentorship and support with our in-house teacher training team.
The work we do in Construction is essential in supporting local businesses. We work with a huge range of companies to make sure our qualifications and curriculum offer meet the industry’s needs. We cover brickwork, groundworks and carpentry. We have a first-class track record of working with employers on successful apprenticeship programmes.
We have great facilities on site but are always looking to make improvements to ensure our staff and students have the best possible learning environments. Our staff are welcoming, supportive and have a great sense of humour. We work tirelessly to give all our students the best opportunity to succeed, whether that is taking the first step on to the employment ladder or moving into more senior positions. Whilst it is hard work, it is hugely rewarding, and the next smile is never far away.
We are a successful, community-focused FE College based in the East of England. We have a thriving Technology faculty, and we have a new role available as a Brickwork/Groundwork Lecturer. In recent years, the department has grown from strength to strength, and we are now at the forefront of vocational education. We offer an incredible training package and a chance to work within tight knit and supportive teams.
We pride ourselves on our approach to the work life balance of our team and actively support job share and flexible working opportunities.
Please note that your point on the salary scale will be determined based on both experience and teaching qualifications. Appointments will not normally be made at point 12 or above (£37,454 FTE) without a level 5 teaching qualification and experience.
