Help shape the next generation of electrical professionals
As a leading nationwide apprenticeship provider, Skills for Security is proud of its excellent learner feedback, strong outcomes and state-of-the-art training centres.
We are looking for an experienced electrician ready to take the next step in their career as an Electrical Tutor. This is a rewarding opportunity to share your practical knowledge, inspire future talent and help apprentices develop the skills, confidence and professional behaviours needed to thrive in the electrotechnical industry.
You will be based within comfortable commuting distance of our Walsall, Warrington or Watford training centres. This is a hybrid role, but you should expect to work from your centre around four days each week.
Are You Ready to Shape the Future?
As an Electrical Tutor, you will support learners completing the Level 3 Installation and Maintenance Electrician Apprenticeship Standard. You will combine your industry expertise with high-quality teaching, coaching and assessment, helping apprentices make meaningful progress from enrolment through to Gateway and Apprenticeship Assessment.
Alongside technical and vocational training, you will help learners develop the wider skills that make a real difference in the workplace: confidence, resilience, communication, professionalism and personal effectiveness.
You will also have opportunities to support commercial, regulated and CPD training programmes, helping us grow our training offer and deliver a first-class experience for learners, employers and industry partners.
Fully Funded Training
If you have the technical expertise and passion to develop others, we will support you to become an outstanding tutor. This includes fully funded teaching and assessor qualifications where these are not already held, alongside ongoing professional development and clear progression opportunities.
