Become a construction or trade teacher, trainer, lecturer or assessor

Demand

The UK construction boom is creating a significant demand for skilled tradespeople, with a growing skills gap expected to widen over the next decade.

Shaping the Future

As a construction teacher, trainer, lecturer, assessor, or end-point assessor (EPA), you’ll find personal reward in nurturing young talent and shaping the future of the industry.

Opportunities

With our extensive network of providers across the UK, we know which ones are open to supporting you through this process and where your unique skills would be a great fit.

Inspire the next generation of tradespeople

The UK needs great tradespeople to support the growth of our fantastic construction industry – but those future tradespeople need someone to inspire, nurture and train them to be the best they can be. Could that be you?

Help combat the construction skills shortage

The UK is experiencing a construction boom – but there is a shortfall in skilled tradespeople to deliver these projects, and the skills gap is only set to widen over the next decade. Colleges and training providers are crying out for passionate teaching and delivery staff to support and inspire their learners – who are queuing up to learn a trade!

Construction teachers, trainers, lecturers, assessors and end-point assessors (EPA) benefit from the personal reward that comes from nurturing young talent, and knowing they are really making a difference to the future of their industry. If this sounds like something that would inspire you – check out our current vacanciesregister to hear about future opportunities or get in touch with us today!

Teaching qualifications not required

Due to the nationwide shortage, many providers are supporting their staff through necessary qualifications on the job – so even if you don’t have a teaching or assessing qualification, you could still qualify for a role. Because we work with so many different providers across the UK, we know which ones would be willing to support you through this, and where your unique skillset would be a good fit. Working in education is a great opportunity to widen your skills and gain qualifications to help you progress in your career.

Want to down tools? Top up your income!

If you have extensive experience in industry, and have trained junior staff before (an apprentice is ideal) then working in further education and training could be a perfect fit for you! Whether you want to reduce your hours spent on site, top up your income in preparation for retirement, or just want to give back: we work with education providers including collegestraining providers, and local authorities who are actively recruiting construction professionals just like you.

Management opportunities available too

We have some fantastic success stories from candidates who have moved from industry to education – and then worked their way up to management level, leading and shaping the future of college construction departments. Because we also recruit at middle management and senior executive level, we can be here to support you throughout your career – and we’d love to help you progress!
