Practical Facilitator – Brick, Maintenance and Carpentry (Barnstaple)
About This Role
Got experience in bricklaying, carpentry, joinery or maintenance? Fancy putting your skills to good use and helping the next generation of tradespeople develop theirs?
Our Trades department has grown significantly in recent years, with more apprentices and full-time learners, alongside major investment in staff, facilities and equipment. Now we're looking for someone with industry experience, a positive attitude and a can-do approach to help support our growing team.
You don't need to be an experienced teacher to get involved. You'll help make practical lessons run smoothly, prepare materials and workspaces, maintain tools and equipment, and support learners as they develop their practical skills and industry knowledge. For those with the right experience and confidence, there's also the opportunity to progress into teaching through a development programme, with a mentor and a College-funded Level 3 teaching qualification.
You'll need to be...
- experienced in a construction trade, such as bricklaying, carpentry, joinery or maintenance
- reliable, positive and ready to muck in as part of a team
- organised and able to prepare materials, tools and equipment for practical sessions
- committed to maintaining a safe, stimulating learning and working environment
- keen to share your practical knowledge and support learners with different needs and abilities
