Qualified Assessor

Are you a qualified Assessor looking to move into a more rewarding role where you can genuinely change lives?If you enjoy coaching learners, building confidence and helping people progress into employment, this could be the perfect next step. Full support is available to help the right person transition into teaching if required.You'll support young people aged 16-25 with EHCPs, including learners with autism, ADHD and learning disabilities, to develop the skills, confidence and qualifications needed for paid employment.This is far from a traditional classroom role. Based within large retail stores across Wolverhampton, Walsall, Tipton and Merry Hill (Dudley), you'll combine Functional Skills teaching with supporting learners during real work placements.A typical 9am-5pm day includes:

• Around 1 hours delivering Functional Skills and employability sessions.
• Around 4 hours supporting learners during their work placements.
• A final 30-minute teaching and reflection session.

Learners complete a range of retail tasks including customer service, tills, stock replenishment and back-of-house duties. Groups are small (typically around 8 learners, with a maximum of 12), and you'll always work alongside one or more Skills Coaches, with an excellent ratio of around one adult to every four learners.The lesson plans, schemes of learning and teaching resources are already developed, allowing you to focus on supporting learners rather than creating content from scratch.What we're looking forThis role would suit someone who enjoys developing people and helping them achieve their potential.You'll either be:

• A qualified Assessor or Level 3 tutor with experience delivering Functional Skills English and Maths, or
• A Level 5 qualified teacher (such as PGCE, Cert Ed or DTLLS). Functional Skills teaching experience would be an advantage but isn't essential.

If you join with a Level 3 teaching qualification, you'll be fully supported to achieve your Level 5 qualification.A driving licence would be helpful as you'll occasionally travel between sites, although public transport is possible.The first learner cohorts are now starting, making this an exciting opportunity to join a growing programme from the beginning.Please apply via this advert.
