AI Coach

Makers’ mission is to build a better future. We transform lives and organisations through pioneering training which keeps pace with global tech shifts.

Tech and AI are reshaping jobs, the economy and society. Ensuring this transition is effective, equitable and inclusive will be a driver of human wellbeing into the next century. We believe talent is everywhere and the future belongs to those who can adapt and learn.

We are here to help people do this - across tech and in every job being remade now by AI. As a committed B-Corp with the best training results in the country, we believe we uniquely bring the heart and the hard- won expertise to do this.

As AI Coach at Makers, you will be front and centre in coaching learners as they embark on apprenticeships and other programmes that put AI at the forefront. You will coach on our leading AI Essentials L3 programme, as well as other AI products and programmes.

Your key partner in your work will be the Head of AI Coaching, who is responsible for the quality of our AI programmes.

Success in this space is delivering learning that blends the best of Makers learning approaches with the most cutting edge and exciting insights into contemporary AI for business, driving profound and measurable impact among the learners we support and thrilling and delighting their employers.

• Fascinated and obsessed with the new world of AI and follow the evolution of this space constantly
• A great coach who loves to help people grow
• A business improvement fanatic with a business analyst skill set who loves to see how AI can transform work and drive innovation and applies this across their own work

You’ll have the opportunity to work in all of these areas as a part of building your practice as an effective technical educator. You may move around to learn new educational techniques and styles, or spend time gaining in-depth expertise in one area.

• Coach: Through active listening and questions, you’ll help learners reflect on their learning, their goals, the problems they are facing and the solutions they may try.
• Mentor: You’ll use your own experience as a professional to model skills and behaviour necessary to be an AI-enabled professional.
• Technical expert: You’ll use your technical knowledge to give expert feedback to learners as well as to help guide them towards solving their own problems.
• Emotional support: The learning experience can be intense. Learners are often under a lot of stress and work pressure. You should be there to support them and help them make the best choices they can.
• Education expert: Using recognised educational tools, you’ll help the learners organise their learning, sequence material, rebuild their mental models and ultimately become independent self‑learners.

Our training takes place both remotely and onsite. From time to time we may ask you to work from our office in London, in other locations within the UK (with reasonable notice and expenses covered) or remotely as fits the needs of our partners and learners.

• The learners you work with are achieving their learning objectives.
• The learners you work with view their experience as demanding but rewarding, viewing our support as highly effective in helping them succeed in their journey.
