Are you an experienced carpenter or joiner looking to step off the tools and pass your skills on to the next generation of tradespeople?

About the Role

As a Carpentry Lecturer, you'll deliver engaging, high-quality teaching and assessment across carpentry and joinery programmes at a further education provider, helping learners build the practical skills, technical knowledge and confidence they need to progress in the industry.

Working closely with colleagues in the team, you'll teach in both workshop and classroom settings, track learner progress and prepare learners for employment, apprenticeships and further study. If you don't yet hold a teaching qualification, this could still be the role for you. Our client welcomes applications from industry professionals and offers support to help you move into teaching.

Your responsibilities will include:

Teaching carpentry and joinery programmes from entry level through to Level 3.
Delivering practical workshop sessions alongside classroom-based theory.
Developing learning resources, schemes of work and assessments.
Assessing, reviewing and tracking learner progress.
Preparing learners for employment, apprenticeships and further study.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

Significant industry experience in carpentry and joinery
A relevant trade qualification (Level 3 or above) in carpentry and joinery

Desirable (but not essential):

A recognised teaching qualification, or a willingness to work towards one with support
Experience teaching or mentoring others in a trade setting

If you're ready to bring your carpentry expertise into the classroom and help shape the next generation of tradespeople, we'd love to hear from you.
