Job Description

Science, maths and English are fundamental skills in the water industry. As part of the YTL Wessex Academy, we're looking for an engaging and innovative teacher/trainer to inspire our apprentices in these subjects.



We know not everyone will be able to teach English, maths and science. We are happy to accept applications if you are qualified in any one of these areas. We will recruit the right person(s) to deliver their specialism. This is an initial six-month fixed-term contract.

What you'll do

------------------



The YTL Wessex Academy has strong aspirations to create pioneering apprenticeship programmes now and for the future. We are an ambitious team that wants training and development to be outstanding.



We don't shy away from trying new approaches. We support apprentices to take control of their own learning and actively encourage both apprentices and line managers to provide constructive feedback to enable us to improve.



If you have a genuine passion for science, maths and/or English and want to develop teaching that reflects the working world and impacts and improves people's confidence in their job, this is the ideal job for you.



You will support the learning of our in-house apprentices. Apprenticeships are open to all across the YTL Group. This role will involve teaching people of all ages. We don't expect you to be an expert in all areas.



You'll schedule and manage a cohesive and effective training programme of skills, knowledge and behaviour development that results in an increase in the competence of operators across the business.

What you'll need

--------------------



You will need to be able to teach science at levels 2 and 3, with maths and English at level 2. The team has already identified the topics you'll need to deliver, but we will listen to you on how best to inspire our apprentices to love science, maths and English as much as you do.



Ideally, you'll understand the regulators within the industry and have some business acumen to be able to help the apprentices understand the impact compliance has on the work they carry out.



You'll be creating and delivering high-quality exciting materials, resources and assessments that reflect good pedagogy practice and meet Ofsted requirements, but what happens in the training room can be led by your knowledge and your imagination.



Alongside the delivery of knowledge, you'll be expected to carry out all the usual teaching-related activities, including monitoring and tracking individual performance, obtaining feedback, and providing accurate, detailed data for reporting.



The academy is passionate about quality service, and our aim is to assess provision and deliver continuous improvements to ensure high standards and significant achievement.

What you'll receive

-----------------------


A combined pension contribution of up to 20%. Career progression and professional development opportunities. 25 days' holiday rising to 28 with length of service. The opportunity to buy up to ten days' holiday and sell up to five every year. A healthcare package that allows you to claim back healthcare costs. Life assurance of up to eight times your salary. A new electric car in exchange for part of your gross salary, subject to conditions. Cashback and discounts from more than 3,000 retailers. One paid volunteering day each year. Enhanced family leave and pay arrangements. An interactive health and wellbeing platform. Support from mental health first aiders. A 1,000 referral fee if you recommend someone to work for us.
