Job summary
We are looking for an occupationally competent and passionate Apprenticeship Work Coach to join our team at HCRG Care Group. In this rewarding role, you will support apprentices across a range of Leadership, Health & Social Care, and Clinical Care apprenticeship standards, guiding them throughout their full learning journey.
Working collaboratively with employers, line managers, workplace mentors and our quality assurance team, you will deliver high quality coaching, conduct progress reviews, and provide ongoing pastoral support to ensure apprentices stay engaged, motivated and on track to achieve their qualifications.

* Support apprentices to achieve successful, timely completion of their apprenticeship standards.
* Deliver high quality coaching, mentoring and assessment support.
* Engage apprentices, managers and workplace mentors to build tailored learning and development plans aligned to workplace practice.
* Provide pastoral support to apprentices, taking into account individual wellbeing needs.
* Prepare, agree and review action plans during regular progress reviews in line with programme and funding requirements.
* Support apprentices to achieve Functional Skills through coaching and effective signposting.
* Maintain accurate and timely documentation, including individualised learning records and funding compliant progress reviews.
* Proactively identify new apprenticeship opportunities within relevant occupational sectors, ensuring programme content remains current and fit for purpose.
* Ensure safeguarding responsibilities are met and all learners are protected throughout their programme.
* Maintain up to date records of apprentice progress, engagement and compliance.
* Attend standardisation and quality meetings with work coaches and assessors.
