About the Role

Keighley College is looking for a Teacher of Hairdressing and Barbering to join our Hair and Beauty team.

You’ll teach across Levels 1 to 3, bringing your industry experience into the classroom and college salon to help students develop the skills, confidence, and professional standards they need for a career in the hair industry.

What You Will Do

• You’ll deliver practical and theory sessions in hairdressing and barbering, from foundational cutting, styling and client consultation to more advanced colouring, clipper work, fading and beard shaping.
• In our college salon, you’ll coach students as they work with clients, helping them develop their technical skills alongside safe working practices, client care and professional conduct.
• You’ll adapt your teaching to suit students’ starting points, give clear feedback and track attendance and progress so you can intervene early when students need support.
• You’ll prepare students for assessment and help them take their next steps into further study, apprenticeships or employment.
• Working with colleagues and local employers, you’ll keep the curriculum up to date with industry practice and help students gain experience through employer-led projects and work placements.

About You

• You’ll bring hands-on experience in hairdressing and barbering and be able to turn that experience into clear demonstrations and practical lessons for students from Level 1 to Level 3.
• You’ll be as comfortable helping a beginner master their first cut as you are giving an advanced student precise feedback on a fade or colour service.
• You’ll have up-to-date knowledge of salon and barbershop practice, including cutting, colouring, styling, clipper work and beard grooming.
• You’ll model high standards of hygiene, safe working and client care, and help students understand what employers expect in a professional salon or barbershop.
• You’ll communicate clearly, build positive relationships and adapt your approach to students’ different starting points.
• You’ll give specific feedback that helps students improve their technique, build confidence and work more independently.
• You’ll take an active role in supporting attendance, progress and achievement.
• You’ll work well with colleagues and employers and be committed to safeguarding, inclusion and helping students progress into further study, apprenticeships or employment.
