The Role
We are seeking a passionate and dedicated Lecturer to join our Future Focus team, delivering high-quality education and support to young people aged 16-18 who are not currently engaged in education, employment or training (NEET). This is a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of learners by helping them overcome barriers, build confidence and develop the skills needed to progress into further education, employment or vocational training.
As a Lecturer within our Future Focus provision, you will lead and deliver engaging learning programmes across our NEET and Supported Internship pathways. You will be responsible for planning and delivering outstanding teaching, learning and assessment, ensuring learners are supported to achieve their individual goals and positive progression outcomes.
The role extends beyond the classroom, requiring you to provide personalised support, mentoring and guidance to learners who may face a range of social, emotional, educational or personal challenges. Working closely with colleagues, employers, parents and external agencies, you will help create a supportive and inclusive learning environment that enables every learner to reach their potential.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
