About the role

You'll manage a caseload of apprentices across the region, working closely with both learners and employers to monitor progress, provide constructive feedback, and ensure apprentices are on track to meet the full requirements of their apprenticeship standard.

• Provide clear, constructive, and developmental feedback that helps apprentices improve and move towards a successful end-point assessment.
• Maintain accurate and up to date records of apprentice progress, attendance, and achievements, producing timely reports and tracking against agreed milestones.
• Identify skills gaps or risk of non completion early and agree targeted interventions with apprentices and employers.
• Complete pre placement vetting for new and existing employers in line with JTL procedures to ensure safe and suitable working environments.
• Embed safeguarding, Prevent, equality and diversity, and health and safety into every aspect of your work, ensuring apprentices feel safe, supported, and able to thrive.
• Promote positive attitudes to learning, workplace professionalism, and the development of essential employability skills.
• Act as an ambassador for JTL by attending careers events, school visits, and industry activities to promote apprenticeships.
• Keep your own technical knowledge and assessment practice up to date through CPD and engagement with industry developments.
