What skills and experience we're looking for

Do you have a passion for education and want to inspire the next generation? Whether you’re already working in education and looking for your next role, or if you’re working in industry and looking to change your career path, we have an exciting opportunity for a Lecturer to join our Construction curriculum team.

You’ll be required to prepare, teach, and assess at a variety of qualification levels, providing support and guidance to your learners as they progress through their studies. You will bring in-depth knowledge of the subject area, strengthened by relevant industry or professional experience, alongside a formal qualification that supports your expertise.

We are looking for a collaborative team player with excellent communication skills, who can take a proactive approach, demonstrate strong attention to detail, and work effectively to demanding deadlines.

If you have teaching experience, especially within Further Education this is desirable but not essential. Similarly, while a full teaching qualification (Level 5 or higher) is not required at the time of appointment, you must be willing to achieve this within three years of employment, fully supported by the College.

What the college offers its staff

In addition to a competitive salary, you can expect the following as a Lecturer at NKC Group:

  • 42 days’ annual leave, plus bank holidays (pro rata for part-time contracts).
  • Enrolment onto the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS), one of the most generous in the country.
  • Access to free parking and a number of onsite facilities, including gyms, restaurants and coffee shops.
  • CPD and support from our in-house Teaching & Learning team, who coach, train, and guide our Lecturers through their teaching journey, from unqualified and new to teaching to qualified and experienced.

Further information about the job

The candidate will be required to undergo a full enhanced DBS check and must be eligible to work in the UK.
Visas cannot be sponsored.
If you're interested in teaching or training to teach in England as an international citizen, we can help you understand your next steps.
