• Provide Mentorship & Feedback : Guide apprentices through their learning journey with regular feedback and one-on-one coaching sessions.
• Workplace Engagement : Foster strong relationships with local regiments and key stakeholders to ensure apprentices receive the right support, whether in the workplace or during training.
• Record Maintenance : Maintain accurate and up-to-date apprentice records, using MIS systems and e-portfolios to track progress.
• Monitor & Report Progress : Ensure apprentices are on track to meet their target achievement dates and provide regular reports to the Programme Manager.
• Quality Assurance : Ensure that all training and assessments meet internal quality assurance standards and the required apprenticeship frameworks.

What We're Looking For:

• Fabrication Expertise : A strong background in fabrication, with hands-on experience in engineering and fabrication processes.
• Relevant Qualifications : A teaching or assessor qualification (or a willingness to work towards one) is essential for this role.
• Military Engagement : A willingness to work with local military regiments, understanding their specific needs and challenges in the field.
• Coaching & Mentoring Skills : Proven experience in coaching, mentoring, or training apprentices, with the ability to motivate and guide others.
• Proficiency in Digital Tools: Comfortable using digital learning tools, e-portfolios, and online learning platforms to support apprenticeship delivery.
• Excellent Communication Skills : Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to give constructive feedback that motivates apprentices to succeed.
• Adaptable and Flexible : Willingness to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends, to accommodate the needs of apprentices and local regiments.

Desirable Attributes:

• Experience in Ofsted Inspections : Familiarity with the inspection process and the requirements for apprenticeship training.
• ESFA Funding Knowledge : Understanding of ESFA funding and its impact on apprenticeship delivery.
