London South Bank University is our main sponsor and we are co-sponsored by Skanska UK, King's College NHS Trust and Guys & St Thomas' NHS Trust who support our work closely in offering real-life employer challenge projects, developing authentic, contextualised learning. 

This role is for a teacher able to deliver Level 2 and 3 BTEC engineering.  You will be placed within a strong team and we will provide the successful candidate with the opportunity to shape the curriculum, coupled with the freedom to innovate and teach highly motivated young people with a passion and aptitude for STEM.

The successful candidate will be part of a close-knit team and will be required to be highly adaptable and flexible, able to drive high academic standards through outstanding pedagogic practice and the use of high technology. 

This role offers first class career development opportunities, excellent CPD, wonderful students, an innovative education vision, and great links to industry and higher education .
