About JTL
JTL is a national apprenticeship provider specialising in the electrical and plumbing sectors, supporting thousands of apprentices and working with employers across England and Wales. We are proud to be an Ofsted ‘Good’ provider and a registered charity, reinvesting in our learners, staff and training facilities.
Our apprentices are at the heart of everything we do. We work closely with employers to develop the next generation of skilled tradespeople, providing high-quality training, support and guidance throughout the apprenticeship and training journey.
Support and develop the next generation of electricians
Do you want to play a key role in helping apprentices build real, hands-on skills in a safe and professional environment? This dual role combines workshop support with practical training delivery, giving you the opportunity to shape how apprentices learn, practise, and apply their trade.
Whether you’re an experienced trainer or a skilled electrician looking to move into education while staying hands-on, this is your opportunity to support apprentices to develop confidence, competence, and the professional standards expected in industry.
At JTL, we’re committed to delivering more than qualifications, we prepare our apprentices for life and work. This is a role where you’ll see the direct impact of your support in the progress, confidence, and achievement of your apprentices, making it both practical and deeply rewarding.
About the role
This is a true dual role, combining responsibility for maintaining a high-quality workshop environment with the delivery of practical training and targeted AM2S preparation.
You’ll play a key part in creating a safe, well-organised, and industry-relevant workshop where apprentices can develop and practise their skills. Alongside this, you’ll deliver focused training and coaching designed specifically to prepare apprentices for their AM2S end-point assessment, helping them build the knowledge, skills, and behaviours required to achieve a successful outcome and progress confidently into the workplace.
