Who are Preston Vocational Centre (PVC)?
PVC was established in 2009, becoming part of the Community Gateway Association (CGA) Group as its charitable subsidiary in 2013.

* You'll have experience of working in the construction industry with a good understanding of health and safety relating to construction roles.
* You'll have the ability to inspire learners and engage them in vocational education, encouraging them to reach their potential.
* You'll safeguard and promote the welfare of young people and vulnerable adults at all times and in all aspects of your work.
