Summary

What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking for a proactive and organised individual to support and mentor a caseload of Plumbing apprentices across our Slough and Langley campus. In this rewarding role, you will coach learners to develop their skills, knowledge and behaviours, helping them succeed in the workplace and achieve their end point assessments. You will work closely with both apprentices and employers, carrying out regular progress reviews and using digital tools such as e portfolios and Microsoft Teams to track development and ensure compliance with funding and audit requirements.

Ideally, you will hold a Level 3 qualification in Plumbing and Heating, along with an Assessor Award (CAVA/A1) or be willing to work towards one. Gas qualifications (such as CCN1 and CENWAT) are desirable but not essential, as this role focuses primarily on face to face plumbing delivery.

Experience supporting apprentices in a training or education environment is highly valued, and a teaching qualification would be a distinct advantage. Please pay particular attention to the supporting statement of the application, making sure to include details of how you meet each of the essential criteria listed on the person specification.
