- Planning and delivering engaging practical and theory sessions in carpentry and joinery.
- Assessing student work and providing constructive feedback to support progress.
- Preparing students for industry-recognised qualifications and assessments.
- Maintaining a safe, well‑organised workshop environment in line with health and safety requirements.
- Keeping up to date with current carpentry and joinery industry practice and standards.
- Monitoring and recording student attendance, progress and achievement.
What We're Looking For
- A recognised trade background in carpentry and joinery
- A relevant Level 3 qualification in carpentry and joinery, or equivalent industry experience
- Strong communication and organisational skills
- A commitment to safe working practices and high professional standards
Desirable (but not essential):
- A teaching qualification such as a PGCE, DET or Cert Ed
- An assessor or verifier award
- Previous experience teaching or mentoring in a further education setting
If you’re ready to bring your carpentry expertise into the classroom and help shape the next generation of tradespeople, we’d love to hear from you.
A real person, not an automated email. If we are not the right fit for you we will say so quickly rather than leave you waiting.
