Casual Trainer

Find your next role with St John Ambulance.

As a Casual Trainer for St John Ambulance, you will work alongside our busy team ofover 400 employed and casual trainers delivering and assessing a variety of First Aid and Health & Safety training courses to our workplace and community training customers.

Our customers are future lifesavers and come from a variety of backgrounds, so no training course is ever the same and you will have tobe able to adapt to deal with different situations and learning styles.

You must, therefore, remain passionate and engaging while delivering a pre-defined training syllabus, whilst having the expertise to adapt the pace and style to suit the audience

Casual Trainers indicate their availability to us over a period and are then offered assignments to run courses (of mainly half a day to 3 days duration) which you can accept or decline. In return, you will be paid an attractive hourly rate plus travelling expenses – and once assigned, we guarantee to make the payment even if a course is cancelled (although we may to use that time for a different assignment, within reason).

You will also be paid for your induction period during which you will learn to deliver our courses confidently and knowledgeably.

We currently have opportunities in various locations, and particularly in London and around the South, for suitably qualified and motivated trainers.
