FE Engineering Resource Developer and Trainer

We are looking for a talented FE Engineering Resource Developer and Trainer to join our outstanding Education Programmes team.

The Royal Academy of Engineering is harnessing the power of engineering to build a sustainable society and an inclusive economy that works for everyone. 

In collaboration with our Fellows and partners, we’re growing talent and developing skills for the future, driving innovation and building global partnerships, and influencing policy and engaging the public. 

Together we’re working to tackle the greatest challenges of our age. 

Our education and skills activities are focused on addressing the UK’s engineering skills challenge. We work across all phases of education to encourage greater numbers of people – and people from a more diverse range of backgrounds – to become engineers and technicians. 

We currently have a vacancy within our Education Programmes team for an FE Engineering Resource Developer and Trainer. You will play a key role in the development and delivery of teaching and learning resources and teacher and lecturer training. You will play an integral role in providing the next generation of new, advanced, and higher qualified technicians with the skills required to work in areas critical to economic growth, including entrepreneurship, emerging technologies and the net zero carbon economy. This is a great opportunity for you to make a difference at a national level. 

To succeed in this role, you will have an understanding of the current further education system in England and the role of engineering within it, or a knowledge of modern engineering and the skills needs of the engineering industry. You will be an effective communicator, both orally and in writing and have excellent project-management skills.  You will also need to be a self-starter with the confidence to work autonomously and pro-actively as well as have excellent computer skills and knowledge of the full Microsoft suite of programmes. We are looking for someone who is an FE engineering lecturer or an engineering graduate (or equivalent experience/qualifications).

We are also recruiting for a T Level Manager: Engineering and Manufacturing. If you would also like to be considered for that role you will need to submit a separate application. To find out more and to apply, please visit our website at www.raeng.org.uk/careers.

Our offices are based in central London near St. James’ Park.
