Motor Vehicle Assessor

Location: Yorkshire
Job Type: Full Time | Permanent
Salary: £33,000 - £40,000 per annum

Essential Requirement: A recognised Assessors qualification (A1/TAQA) and relevant Motor Vehicle qualifications.

Are you an experienced Motor Vehicle Lecturer looking for your next opportunity? We are seeking passionate and dedicated assessing professionals to join our automotive team and help develop the next generation of skilled technicians.

This is an exciting opportunity to teach within a well-equipped learning environment, delivering high-quality education across a range of Motor Vehicle programmes while enjoying excellent career development, generous annual leave and an outstanding pension package.

  • Visiting apprentices in their workplaces to observe practical competence and assess their performance against apprenticeship standards.
  • Conducting progress reviews with apprentices and employers to monitor development and set clear action plans.
  • Supporting apprentices to build and maintain their evidence portfolios using the OneFile e-portfolio system (or a similar platform).
  • Assessing workplace evidence through observations, professional discussions, witness testimonies and questioning.
  • Providing constructive feedback and coaching to help apprentices improve their skills and remain on track.
  • Ensuring apprentices are fully prepared for their End-Point Assessment (EPA).
  • Liaising regularly with employers to monitor attendance, performance and workplace development.
  • Managing a caseload of apprentices, scheduling workplace visits and maintaining accurate assessment records.

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.
