• A passion for mentoring and training others.
• A recognised teaching qualification is beneficial, but full training and a paid teaching qualification will be provided.

• Flexible schedule with 1 in 4 weeks dedicated to lesson planning and CPD.
• Career development – full support to gain a teaching qualification.
• A supportive environment with opportunities for professional growth.

This is a great opportunity for a skilled automotive professional looking to step away from the tools and into a rewarding training role. If you have the right experience and a passion for developing future talent, we’d love to hear from you.
