The Role
We're looking for an experienced Teaching Assessor to deliver and assess Level 4 Children, Young People & Families Residential Care and Level 5 Management apprenticeship programmes, supporting learners working within residential childcare settings across England.
This is an exciting opportunity to leave a lasting impact on the sector by coaching, mentoring and developing future leaders who care for children and young people in Residential Care Homes.
