Role Description

The successful candidate will be responsible for delivering and assessing high-quality programmes within Newcastle College’s further education Sport and Uniformed Public Services provision.

This includes teaching, assessment, and programme administration to ensure effective course management. A key focus will be supporting learners in developing employability skills, promoting independence, and preparing them for progression into higher education, apprenticeships, or employment.

The role will primarily focus on Level 2 Sport and Uniformed Public Services pathways. Applicants should have a strong vocational background in the sport and active leisure industry or uniformed public services, along with proven experience in helping learners develop technical and employability skills.

You will hold an honours degree (Level 6) or an industry-recognised qualification in a related field, plus a post-16 teaching qualification (or be willing to achieve this within an agreed timeframe). Level 2 English and maths are essential, or candidates must be prepared to work towards them.

Experience in programme leadership within FE, HE, or apprenticeships is desirable, as is knowledge of current industry practices. You should also have proven success in designing and delivering strategies that support learners with additional needs or barriers to learning. Strong organisational skills, excellent communication, and confidence with IT systems and VLEs are essential. Flexibility to work evenings and weekends may be required to meet curriculum demands.
