Are you an experienced Plumber or Gas Engineer looking to step away from full time site work and move into a more stable, rewarding career?

Do you want a role that offers flexibility, autonomy over your diary, outstanding benefits, and the opportunity to make a real difference by developing the next generation of tradespeople?

On offer is a long term career opportunity with a well established education provider that is in an exciting period of growth. Known for genuinely investing in its staff, this organisation offers full teacher and assessor training, funded qualifications, clear progression routes, and one of the strongest benefits packages in the sector.

This institution has an excellent reputation for supporting trades professionals as they transition into education. You will be fully supported with structured training, mentoring, and ongoing development, allowing you to build a meaningful and secure career without the pressures of constant site deadlines.

In this hybrid role, you will work with apprentices both at the training centre and out in the workplace. You will coach, tutor, mentor, support and assess apprentices on a 1 to 1 basis, helping them develop strong practical skills, knowledge and professional standards as they progress through their apprenticeship. You will liaise closely with employers to ensure learners receive the right on the job experience and support, while also helping apprentices successfully complete their qualifications.

You will be trusted to manage your own diary, plan site visits and organise your workload, giving you real autonomy and flexibility in how you operate day to day.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced Plumbing or Gas professional with a Level 3 qualification, who enjoys helping others and is looking for a long term career change. No teaching or assessing experience is required, as full training and qualifications are provided.

This opportunity would suit a plumber or gas engineer who wants to come off the tools, gain new qualifications, enjoy excellent holidays and pension, and work in a role with real purpose, flexibility and progression.

The Role:

• Full Trainer & Assessor Training Provided
• Deliver training and support to Plumbing & Gas apprentices
• Carry out workplace assessments on site
• Coach, mentor and support apprentices on a 1 to 1 basis
• Liaise with employers to support learner progress
• Hybrid role across home, centre and apprentices' workplaces
• Amazing Benefits

The Person:

• Background in Plumbing and/or Gas
• Hold a Level 3 qualification in Plumbing or a related trade
• Commutable across Cambridge and Huntingdon
• Keen to move into a training and assessing role
• No prior teaching or assessing experience needed
