Runshaw College is one of the most successful colleges in the country, renowned locally and nationally for our outstanding results, friendly and supportive culture and focus on putting the student at the heart of all that we do.
We value our staff and students highly, and invest heavily in their development, support and wellbeing. Situated in Leyland, Lancashire, the College is near the M6, M61 and M65 and within commuting distance of Manchester, Liverpool and the Lake District.
This a truly exciting time to be joining the Digital team at Runshaw. With investment from the Strategic Development Fund and working alongside Lancashire Chambers of Commerce as they develop their Lancashire Local Skills Improvement Plan, we are on the cusp of launching our Centre of Digital Excellence. We currently deliver a wide range of Digital provision to 16-19 learners, adults and apprentices and the launch of our Centre of Digital Excellence, will see us entering the next stage of our development in delivering a curriculum that is at the cutting edge of technology, not only meeting the need of our learners but also local and national employers. This will see the introduction of Level 4/5 provision, Higher Technical qualifications, Vendor qualifications and additional pathway choices for vocational students, as well as employer focused bespoke training packages.
The FE sector is a great place to work, providing multi skilled professionals the opportunity to work with both 16-19 and adult learners to help forge the workforce for today and tomorrow. As a result, we see our next step in recruitment as an exciting opportunity to do something different. We are looking for the right people, with an enthusiastic approach to their work, a passion for the subject and excellent subject knowledge, but above all else people who are eager to learn, try new things and will put learners’ experience at the forefront of everything they do, even if they currently don’t have any teaching or training experience. If this sounds like you, we are keen to hear from you!

About Runshaw College
Runshaw College first opened in 1974 as a small Sixth Form College with just 450 students. Almost fifty years later, we are now a hugely successful comprehensive Tertiary College with over 6000 learners, supported by over 650 staff. What has never changed at Runshaw, is our enduring focus on teaching, learning and the needs of our students, which is always at the centre of everything we do. As a result, we have developed a national reputation for educational excellence.
Runshaw College is one of the largest providers of A Level courses in the country, offering an extensive range of over 40 different subject options. The sixth-form curriculum also includes a very broad range of vocational courses, from Entry Level to Level 3. As a comprehensive Tertiary College, we also provide large numbers of apprenticeships in partnership with local employers, as well as significant adult learning programmes to meet the needs of our communities.
The college has very strong relationships with a broad range of employers, working in collaboration and co-creating an agile curriculum to address skills shortages and develop the highly-skilled and employable workforce of the future. Students consistently achieve some of the strongest outcomes nationally, and progress in large numbers to prestigious destinations including Oxford and Cambridge Universities, Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Science courses, and prestigious conservatoires.
