  • Support the development of the Secondary STEM offer, including contributing to qualifications/awards under guidance from the Programme Manager.
• Quality, Safety & Organisation
  • Help maintain STEM equipment and ensure sessions follow all health and safety and safeguarding requirements.
  • Complete basic risk assessments for sessions (training provided).
  • Ensure delivery is inclusive and promotes equality, diversity, and respect.
  • Support the collection of participation data, feedback, and simple monitoring information to evidence impact.
  • Record delivery using LFC Foundation systems and share summary feedback with schools (with support).
• Team Collaboration & Promotion
  • Contribute to team planning sessions and programme evaluation.
  • Assist with producing case studies and identifying PR opportunities.
  • Provide occasional content for LFC Foundation social media and communications.
  • Represent the Foundation positively at school and community events.
