About the role
Electrical Trainer Assessor (City & Guilds)
Birmingham | £44,000 plus benefits | teaching City & Guilds electrical qualifications
The opportunity
Our client, an established training provider delivering electrical qualifications to learners across the West Midlands, is looking for an experienced electrician ready to move off the tools and into training and assessing.
This is a role for someone who knows the trade inside out and wants to pass that knowledge on, rather than someone looking for an easy step back from site work. You will be working with learners at different stages, from apprentices through to experienced electricians upskilling or converting qualifications, so patience and the ability to explain things clearly matter as much as technical depth.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you will be doing
- Delivering theory and practical training on City & Guilds electrical qualifications to a mixed group of learners
- Assessing and signing off learner competence against City & Guilds and NVQ criteria
- Marking coursework and preparing learners for examinations and end point assessment
- Keeping accurate, audit-ready records of training and assessment
- Making sure course content reflects current wiring regulations and industry standards
What you will need
Essential:
- A recognised electrical qualification (NVQ Level 3 or equivalent) and up-to-date knowledge of the 18th edition wiring regulations
- Solid hands-on experience as a qualified electrician, ideally with some supervisory or mentoring exposure
- It would also help to hold, or be working towards, an assessing qualification such as TAQA, CAVA or A1, and a teaching qualification such as AET or PTLLS, though training can be provided for the right candidate.
