Job overview

Engineering Instructor Required  (Term Time only)

An opportunity has arisen for an Engineering Instructor to join Elutec to support the work of our students.

Elutec UTC

Elutec – the 14-19 University Technical College for East London - opened in September 2014 and aims to be the leading engineering and manufacturing UTC in the UK. Elutec is housed in an impressive new building in Barking and Dagenham, surrounded by a Business and Science Park which is soon to be joined by an exciting new film studio complex. The school has excellent transport links, with Dagenham East tube station a short walk away. 

The school’s exceptional sponsors include Ford Motor Company, one of the world's foremost  design, engineering and manufacturing enterprises and the Faculty of Engineering at University College London (UCL), ranked as one of the top 20 “super-elite” universities in the world (especially in Elutec's specialist areas of manufacturing and engineering). Elutec is also sponsored by The Centre for Engineering and Manufacturing Excellence (CEME) in Havering, where Elutec was originally located and by Prospects College of Advanced Technology, one of the country's leading education providers of work-force development needs.

Elutec aims to offer learners and employers an outstanding solution to current skills shortages. Our vision is that our pupils will stand out from the crowd and will be educated and coached to win the technical jobs that local employers desperately need to fill. In those jobs they will stand out as competent young engineering and manufacturing technicians. When they pursue further qualifications, they will stand out as those precious few who "know how to make things" as well as design, test, simulate and research them. In summary, our pupils will be the engineering and manufacturing specialists that employers need to grow their businesses and to develop the local economy. 

Key Responsibility:  To work within the engineering team on developing, delivering and supporting the engineering curriculum at Key Stages 4 and 5, plus supporting students in lessons. 

This exciting opportunity to join the technical team at Elutec will involve teaching and supporting our students in developing their key technical skills in our new engineering workshops.  

The department has a strong Engineering department which delivers  Cambridge Nationals and BTEC Level 3 qualifications. The department is expanding and is interested in someone with industry experience who can share their skills and knowledge to prepare students for university and apprenticeships, and further embed the schools vision.  Previous experience is desired along with holding a teaching qualification and/or an assessors/instructors award.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about engineering and about helping prepare students for the world of industry/apprenticeships/university. You will work alongside a strong and motivated team, who are committed to ensuring that our pupils make outstanding progress.  Ideally with recent experience working in an engineering environment with a strong technical understanding.

The role is supporting in a workshop environment and includes confident use of wide range of engineering machinery, their maintenance, servicing and basic repairs as well as teaching and record keeping.

Elutec and all its personnel are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people.  This position is subject to an Enhanced Disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Services and suitable references along with other essential checks.

To apply, please return your completed application form  by email to: Mrs G Howard, HR Manager, on g.howard@elutec.co.uk

CVs will not be accepted

Closing date for applications:  4th February 2019.  Applications for part-time or full-time are welcome.

Interviews will be held:  Thursday 7th February 2019

Start date:  As soon as possible
