Had you thought about using your construction trades skills to train the next generation of construction trades by becoming a Construction MultitradesTutor?

I recruit  construction trades professionals : carpenters, joiners, plumbers, builders, decorators, kitchen fitters, bathroom fitters, tilers etc. who wish to re-train to become Construction Multi-trades Tutors.

The Company:

This well established training provider has been delivering introductory construction trades training to young people for over 10 years. 

By introducing construction trades skills to young people, this organisation has proved to be very successful in providing a pathway into various aspects of construction when the young person  leaves school. 

Many of its young learners have gone on to secure apprenticeships and trainee jobs within construction trades.

This has brought about continued success and the need to grow the team further.

You don’t need to have all the construction trades skills, just a few because you are only teaching introductory level.  Those you don’t have you can be taught.

The Role:

• Based in the Leicester area, you'd be giving practical demonstrations on various aspects of introductory level construction skills - bricklaying, carpentry, painting and decorating, tiling, etc.
• As a Multi-trades Construction tutor you would be working with a class room and work shop with a ratio of two instructors to seven young people.
• You'd be providing young people with tasters of basic level construction skills that will help them secure construction apprenticeships or further training when they leave school. 
• 90% of the training is practical as the company have found that this is the way most young people learn best. 
• Multi-trades Construction tutors working hours are 8.00 a.m. - 4.00 p.m. but classes are 9.30 a.m. - 3.00 p.m.  Four days a week so plenty time for admin etc. 
• Term Time Only - working 41 weeks per annum - 11 weeks holiday.
• The starting salary is £27,500  which raises to £30,000 on passing probation.
• Instead of working 52 weeks per year you'd be working 41 weeks per year (11 weeks holiday).
• The salary increases by 5% per annum. 
• If you possess teaching / coaching / mentoring experience but don’t have formal training qualifications, the opportunity will be provided for you to gain them.

The Multi-trades Construction Candidate

• Experience within any construction trades – carpentry, joinery, bricklaying, plastering, painting, tiling, etc.
• Previous experience of working with young people - maybe you have been responsible for looking after apprentices, giving tool box talks, having people shadow you to learn a trade by demonstrating your skills, or an activity leader, cub/beaver volunteer, sports coach, foster carer - any experience like that would be relevant.
• Good, clear communication skills. You must be able to give clear instructions and have a good command of the English language both written and verbal.
• The desire to work with young people and share your knowledge to help set them up for the future.

This is an ideal opportunity to re-train to become a Multi-trades Construction Tutor as full train the trainer support and mentoring is provided.
