Job description

About the role

You're the kind of educator who reads teaching blogs for fun and gets excited about a perfectly planned inset day. You've spent years in the classroom teaching English, maths or supporting learners with SEND, now you're looking to take your expertise to the next level. You know the joy (and chaos) of a breakthrough moment with a student, and you've got a knack for bringing the same spark to your colleagues through coaching, mentoring or CPD sessions. You believe that every learner deserves access to great teaching and you want to play a national role in making that happen. Whether you're facilitating a workshop, designing evidence-based training, or giving thoughtful feedback after a lesson observation, you lead with empathy, energy and purpose. You're ready to jump into a role where your ideas will shape practice across the country. You might be a bit of a pedagogy nerd, you're collaborative to the core, and you're not afraid to be bold when it matters.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead training delivery for English, maths or SEND teachers in colleges nationwide
• Build relationships with providers and ensure a high-impact programme experience
• Co-design workshops, coaching sessions and resources rooted in great pedagogy
• Tailor delivery to setting needs and support staff to embed new approaches
• Work closely with our Head of CPD to refine our offer and drive excellence

At Get Further, we're on a mission to ensure every student secures the English and maths qualifications they need to thrive - and we know brilliant teaching is the key. That's why we're launching a bold, national CPD programme to support FE teachers to deliver world-class instruction in English, maths and inclusive practice. We're now looking for three exceptional educators in English, maths or SEND to join us as CPD Managers. You'll lead training across the country, build strong partnerships with colleges and training providers, and design impactful resources that bring evidence-informed teaching to life.

Qualifications

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS or international equivalent)
• 3+ years' teaching experience in English and/or maths at GCSE level
• Proven experience of designing and delivering high-quality CPD
• In-depth knowledge of effective teaching and learning approaches
• Ability to build strong working relationships
• Excellent communication, interpersonal and stakeholder management skills
• Familiarity with data-driven programme improvement and safeguarding best practices
• Experience in the Further Education sector and leading national training initiatives is a bonus - but not essential

A detailed table of our essential and desirable specifications can be found in our recruitment pack.

Work-Life Balance

• 36 days of holiday (incl. bank holidays)
• Hybrid and flexible working - including school hours
• Remote-friendly (monthly office visit for non-London staff)
• Ongoing learning and CPD opportunities
• Termly team development days in London
• Cycle to Work scheme
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Collaborative, inclusive culture with shared values at its heart

Join a team where your work really matters and where your wellbeing and development are supported every step of the way.
