About The Role
We're looking for an inspiring Aviation / Travel & Tourism Lecturer to equip the next generation with the skills, knowledge, behaviours and confidence to succeed in the aviation industry. This is more than a teaching role – it's an opportunity to shape futures, inspire and prepare learners for exciting careers in a fast-paced global sector.

Whether you're already teaching or looking to bring your aviation expertise into education, you'll join a supportive team committed to delivering outstanding learning experiences and helping every student succeed.
What You’ll Do
- Be the Expert: Deliver high-quality teaching and assessment that bridges the gap between textbooks and the industry.
- Ignite Ambition: Use your enthusiasm to motivate learners, helping them master technical skills and reach their full potential.
- Build the Bridge: Develop vital industry links to provide students with "gold-standard" work experience and clear career pathways.
- Collaborate & Innovate: Work within a supportive team at our Rotherham Campus, using practical, theoretical, and digital tools to make learning stick.
You will…
- Be an effective and motivated team player, with excellent interpersonal skills and ability to work effectively with colleagues and management to achieve strategic and organisational objectives.
- Hold a vocational qualification at Level 3 or above and industry experience, as well as a relevant teaching qualification and assessors award, or be willing to work towards.
- Hold a Level 2 (or equivalent) qualification in English and Maths or be willing to work towards.
- Be able to bring the subject to life, using combined methods of practical, theoretical and digital which will engage your learners and provide them with the best skills, knowledge and behaviours for the future.
