The Company is a leading training provider, and we pride ourselves on our commitment and passion for the learning and development of our learners. We are currently looking for a Tutor to join our successful Study Programme Team. The Team delivers two pre-apprenticeship programmes: Employability Skills and In-centre Traineeships in our Accrington, Oldham, and Bury Centres.

Both programmes are tailored to the needs of students aged 16-18 who are not ready or able to directly enter an Apprenticeship, employment, or other post-16 alternatives. This challenging and rewarding role will suit a passionate and engaging tutor with proven experience and/or a desire to work with learners between the ages of 16 – 18.

We are looking for someone who possesses the following qualities:

The role will be based in our Bury centre with travel to Oldham and Accrington centres when required (flexibility is essential). Please see the person profile and job description below for full details of the role and requirements of applicants.

The Company operates throughout the North West of England and other geographical areas, so a driving license is essential.

The Company has both a moral and legal responsibility to ensure the safeguarding of staff and learners. Applicants will be required to complete the necessary checks throughout the recruitment process, including Disclosure and Barring Service checks, to demonstrate this commitment to the highest level.

The Company is committed to Equal Opportunities, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, colour, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
