Are you passionate about the Engineering industry and looking to do something different?
Do you think you could teach, but don’t want to be based in a classroom Monday – Friday?
Milton Keynes College are looking for a Workplace Trainer with expert industry knowledge and skills who can teach Engineering maths, Mechanical principles and Materials – the awarding body requirements dictate that you must be qualified at Level 3 or above yourself and have relevant industrial technical competence/experience.
As a Workplace Trainer, your role will be dynamic, varied and highly rewarding - working with employers, apprentices and the college curriculum teams. You will have some autonomy with your diary, with the expectation of certain days/times on campus delivering face to face lessons, appointments to be scheduled with employers at their
workplace and some working from home also supported.
Workplace trainers are assigned a caseload of apprentices to train and assess throughout the evolution of their apprenticeship. Our apprentices’ journey runs all year round, therefore you are able to take your annual leave at any time of the year.
We are looking for enthusiastic and skilled engineers to motivate and inspire learners to develop their skills and enable progression into their chosen careers. No previous teaching experience? Don’t let this put you off… If you are a passionate person with the capacity to become a great teacher we can provide the training to help you achieve your full potential, just as we expect you to be able to help our students achieve theirs. Perhaps you have experience coaching or mentoring and an interest/background in Engineering topics, there are elements of the students learning journey that would benefit from this skillset, such as progress reviews, setting targets, supporting the students to meet the requirements of their chosen pathway.
We're open to applicants looking for part-time or full-time hours.
Part-time hours are 30 hours a week, Monday-Thursday 9am-5pm.
Full-time hours are 37.5 hours a week, Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.
