About the role

We are seeking experienced and suitably qualified Building & Construction Trainers and Assessors to join our team on a flexible contract basis.

• Maintain accurate assessment records and documentation within our LMS.
• Ensure assessment decisions are supported by sufficient, valid, authentic and current evidence.
• Work collaboratively with our compliance and administration teams.
• Participate in assessment validation, professional development and continuous improvement activities.
• Assist with reviewing and improving training and assessment resources where required.

What we’re looking for

• Relevant vocational qualifications and demonstrated industry experience in building construction, swimming pool construction or related disciplines.
• Current training and assessment credentials that meet applicable RTO requirements.
• Demonstrated vocational competency and current industry skills relevant to the units you will assess.
• Previous experience delivering and assessing nationally recognised training within an RTO environment.
• Strong understanding of competency-based assessment, assessment principles and the rules of evidence.
• Ability to review practical workplace evidence and make sound, well-documented assessment decisions.
• Strong written communication and organisational skills.
• Confidence working independently with online learning management systems.

Highly regarded

• Experience delivering or assessing CPC40820, CPC40120 or CPC50220.
• Current or previous building, site supervisor or swimming pool building licences.
• Experience assessing RPL applications and workplace-based practical evidence.
• Experience working with online and self-paced training programmes.
• Familiarity with the Australian VET regulatory framework and RTO compliance requirements.
• Experience reviewing or developing assessment tools and resources.

What we offer

• Work remotely – flexible work-from-home arrangements.
• Flexible contract opportunities – workload and availability can be discussed.
• Established training resources – work within our existing LMS and assessment systems.
• Ongoing assessment opportunities – access to students across our building and construction qualifications.
• Supportive team – work alongside our compliance and administration staff.
• Long-term opportunities – potential for ongoing engagement as our training programmes expand.

We understand that experienced trainers and assessors often work across multiple organisations, and we are open to discussing flexible arrangements that suit your existing commitments.
