Are you passionate about supporting our clients on their journey to recovery independence and life away from homelessness? We are looking for a Senior Construction Skills Tutor to join our Learning Training & Employment team. Helping people who have experienced homelessness to develop their skills, improve their wellbeing and move towards independent living is a fundamental part of our mission to support people in rebuilding their lives.

This role will deliver an engaging and effective programme of accredited multi-skills training across a range of construction disciplines. The postholder will create a structured, supportive and inclusive learning environment where clients can build confidence, wellbeing and routine. By providing a safe and non-judgmental space to learn and grow, the role will empower St Mungos clients to move away from homelessness through education, skills development and opportunity.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with local hostel managers to promote the programme and increase client participation.

We are seeking an empathetic and proactive individual who can share their skills, motivate others and inspire confidence.

• A flexible approach with a willingness to work across multiple sites.
