Are you a Motor Vehicle Technician or Mechanic with an IMI Level 3 or NVQ Level 3 qualification?

Do you want to move into a more structured, less pressured environment where you can pass on your skills and genuinely change young people''s lives?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing independent specialist school that supports learners who don''t thrive in mainstream education. With a strong focus on practical, hands-on learning, the organisation is committed to helping students rebuild confidence, develop real-world skills, and progress into positive futures.

You''ll be part of a supportive and experienced team that values relationship-led teaching, small class sizes, and a personalised approach to learning. This is an environment where your industry experience is respected, and your ability to engage and inspire learners is what really counts.
