To be considered for this role, applicants must have prior experience as a lecturer, teacher, tutor, trainer, or instructor in mechanical engineering. While this is primarily a remote position, candidates are also welcome to work on-site at one of the provider’s locations in the heart of London.
Are you an experienced Mechanical Engineering Teacher, Lecturer, Trainer, Tutor, or Instructor with a Level 3 qualification (or higher) in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline?
A national training provider is offering a fully remote opportunity to deliver Mechanical Engineering courses to students aged 16–19 in the Further Education sector.
How You Will Be Required to Work Remotely
Theory-Based Teaching – You will deliver the theory components of Mechanical Engineering — including engineering principles, health and safety, mechanical systems, maintenance techniques, and technical drawings — remotely using platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Moodle.
Apprenticeship Support – You will also support apprentices who are based on-site with their employers by delivering remote sessions. Tutors provide guidance, regular check-ins, and online support to help learners progress through their qualifications.
Blended Learning Approach – While the role is primarily remote, the training provider follows a blended model. You may be required to attend in-person sessions once every fortnight for practical assessments or hands-on demonstrations. All travel expenses for these visits will be fully covered.
