Details
We are seeking a highly skilled Jewellery Making & Silverwork Facilitator to deliver our popular Tuesday evening courses spanning the 2026/27 academic year.
This role requires a facilitator who can comfortably navigate a mixed-ability workshop environment for the first two terms by supporting absolute beginners alongside intermediate makers, before transitioning to a dedicated, high-level technical class for advanced progressors in the final term.
You will guide learners through design concept, material selection, fabrication, and finishing. Teach essential silverwork and bench jewellery skills, including saw piercing, soldering, annealing, texturing, doming, and finishing/polishing techniques. To deliver advanced instruction, facilitate advanced techniques for the final term, such as complex stone setting (bezel, flush, or prong), hollow form construction, and intricate wirework. Manage a Mixed-Ability Studio and differentiate instruction effectively during the “All Levels” terms, ensuring beginners grasp core safety and hand-tool basics while pushing experienced learners to expand their design boundaries.
