We're growing our Project Controls Team and looking for an experienced Skills Coach who is passionate about supporting the next generation of Project Controls professionals.
At Learning Skills Partnership (LSP), we deliver the Project Controls Technician Level 3 Apprenticeship to apprentices working across a range of engineering, infrastructure and construction organisations. Our Tutors deliver the structured teaching programme, while our Skills Coaches provide the one-to-one coaching, workplace assessment and guidance that helps apprentices successfully complete their apprenticeship and achieve End Point Assessment (EPA).
If you're someone who enjoys coaching, mentoring and helping people build real professional competence—not just pass an assessment—this could be the perfect role for you.
The Role
As a Skills Coach, you'll manage a caseload of apprentices working towards the Project Controls Technician Level 3 Apprenticeship. Most coaching and assessment is delivered remotely via Microsoft Teams, supported by occasional workplace visits where required.
You will:
- Provide high-quality coaching and assessment that supports apprentices throughout their apprenticeship journey.
- Carry out assessment activities including professional discussions, observations, oral questioning and evidence reviews.
- Support apprentices to gather evidence for their portfolios and showcase projects.
- Prepare apprentices for Gateway and End Point Assessment (EPA).
- Conduct mock assessments and provide detailed developmental feedback.
- Hold regular progress reviews with apprentices and employers to monitor progress and set meaningful targets.
- Work closely with Tutors and employers to ensure apprentices remain engaged and on track.
- Maintain accurate learner records using our e-portfolio systems.
- Promote safeguarding, Prevent Duty, equality and inclusion throughout the learner journey.
