We are pleased to offer an outstanding individual the opportunity to join us as we go into our fourth year and take in our next cohort of students. As a health and science focused school you can expect state of the art facilities and students who are keen to learn science in order to follow a range of careers in health and medical fields.  

We are pleased to offer this post of Cover Manager. Working to the Director of Operations, you will be an enthusiastic, punctual, reliable, and responsible cover manager to manage our team of cover supervisors and deliver high-quality cover lessons. The Cover Manager will co-ordinate cover for lessons while teachers are carrying out training and other professional duties, making sure that students stay on task and that high standards of behaviour are maintained at all times.   

This role is the equivalent of up to 210 days per year (slightly more than term time only) not whole year.

You will be an effective user of ICT with a high level of accuracy, a strong eye for detail and a good communicator. You will have the opportunity to develop your skills and experience while working with us so that your career can grow as we do.  Our state of the art facilities and technology will ensure you can engage with all stakeholders effectively and efficiently while also supporting the rest of the school community to do the same.  

Established with the backing of the University of Wolverhampton and in partnership with a wide range of health sector employer partners, including all West Midlands NHS Trusts, WM Ambulance Service and the Mid-counties Co-operative Pharmacy, Health Futures is responding to the identified skills gap that is preventing local young people taking up the varied and valuable career paths in this sector.

Health Futures University Technical College (UTC) is a mixed, non-selective, non-denominational, 14-19 secondary school, situated in West Bromwich in the West Midlands. The school has formed a unique partnership with 20 health, education and public sector organisations from across the West Midlands to enable it to combine national qualification teaching with hands-on project learning with healthcare professionals.

Health Futures UTC, the first UTC in the UK with healthcare and health sciences as its specialism, opened in September 2015 in a brand new multi-million pound building. Over 250 regional students interested in careers in healthcare and health science sectors joined Health Futures for the first time.

Values and vision

The curriculum at Health Futures UTC focuses on healthcare and science but strongly embraces English, Maths and Science and requires students to study these subjects. These subjects are combined with practical and technical qualifications to ensure transferable learning into the world of work and further education. Students also have the opportunity to develop business, technology, enterprise, financial and management skills. 

Health Futures UTC believes that children flourish when encouraged to explore and express the wide range of ideas and possibilities that occur to young minds. It believes they are known to especially benefit from creative learning and collaborative working at a young age. The UTC approach to education reflects these philosophies and taps into the imagination and inventiveness often found in younger learners.
