About the Role

Are you experienced in construction, enjoy working hands-on and have a passion for passing on your practical skills?We're looking for someone with a background in construction, building or the trades to bring their industry knowledge into the classroom.
This is a brilliant opportunity to swap the building site for a specialist learning environment, helping young people develop practical construction skills, gain confidence and work towards future careers in the industry.
You don't need to be a qualified teacher – we're looking for someone who knows their trade, enjoys working with their hands and would love to help the next generation develop their skills!

  • Providing encouragement and guidance to students with additional learning needs.
  • Promoting positive behaviour, engagement and independence.
  • Supporting the delivery of a safe and structured learning environment.
  • Working closely with teaching staff and other support professionals.
The Ideal Candidate

We would love to hear from people who:
  • Have experience or a genuine interest in construction, building or a trade.
  • Enjoy working with young people and supporting their development.
  • Are patient, approachable and encouraging.
  • Can engage learners through practical, hands-on activities.
  • Have experience working with young people with SEN or additional needs (desirable but not essential).
