You'll also contribute to the successful delivery of the Skills Bootcamp programme by supporting participants to achieve positive employment outcomes and ensuring programme performance targets are met.

Every learner's journey is different, making this a rewarding and varied role where you'll see first-hand the impact your support can have.

• Work collaboratively with curriculum teams and external partners to ensure learners receive a joined-up support experience.

What we're looking for

You'll be passionate about helping people succeed and able to motivate individuals from a wide range of backgrounds.

You'll ideally have experience in employability, careers guidance, coaching, recruitment, welfare-to-work, education or skills provision and enjoy building positive relationships with learners, employers and partners alike.

Most importantly, you'll be empathetic, organised and committed to helping people realise their potential.

Why join Capel Manor College?

As part of our Employer Skills, Innovation & Growth Directorate, you'll play a key role in delivering innovative employment and skills programmes that are transforming lives across London.

You’ll work within a supportive and ambitious team, receive ongoing professional development and have the opportunity to contribute to high-profile programmes that make a lasting difference to individuals, employers and local communities.

• These include generous annual leave, access to a defined pension scheme, retail and leisure discounts and access to an online GP.
• In return, we offer a competitive salary, generous annual leave, Local Government Pension Scheme membership and a rewarding role where your work has a genuine social impact.
