The Role
We're looking for a motivated and skilled Bricklayer Trainer to deliver City & Guilds Bricklaying qualification up to a Level 2 Diploma, supporting learners in achieving their CSCS cards. Working with a cohort of up to 18 prisoners, you'll play a key role in helping individuals build practical trade skills and prepare for meaningful employment in the construction industry, after release.
Based on site at HMP Millsike, you'll plan and deliver engaging lessons that combine bricklaying, literacy, digital, and employability skills, while using adaptive training techniques to meet a range of learning needs. This is a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference, promoting positive behavioural change and supporting rehabilitation through construction education.
What We're Looking For
We're seeking someone with:
* Experience in bricklaying (qualified to Level 2 or higher) and ideally teaching/training experience within a vocational or prison education setting.
* A passion for supporting others to learn and succeed, with excellent communication and motivational skills.
* The ability to adapt teaching to suit different learning levels and embed essential digital and employability skills.
* A commitment to restorative practices and creating a positive, inclusive workshop environment.
If you're ready to inspire and equip learners with the skills they need for a fresh start in construction, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and help change lives through learning.
