The Job Role
We are looking for an experienced Freelance Skills Coach to support a cohort of 17 apprentices studying Level 2 and Level 3 Hairdressing and Barbering Apprenticeships.
As a Skills Coach, you will provide one-to-one coaching and guidance, helping apprentices develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours required to succeed in the industry and achieve their End-Point Assessment (EPA). You will carry out regular face-to-face reviews in salon, monitor learner progress, and work closely with employers to ensure apprentices remain on track.
Most apprentices are based across Yorkshire; however, the role requires travel along the M62 corridor to visit learners in their salon workplaces.
