The Vacancy

There's never been a more exciting time to join the Academy of Pre-Technical and Skills for Living and Work


As an area of growth, we have multiple brand new roles in an already amazing team of individuals committed to helping disadvantaged young people grow in confidence and realise their potential through learning.


The brand-new role of Job Coach for SEND is ideal if you:

  • Want a rewarding role where you can also develop your communication and coordinating skills by playing a key role in managing the relationship between host businesses and the college
  • Can coach young people with SEND to develop both their general employability & adult skills as well as the specific skills needed for the role they are undertaking
  • Would enjoy seeing progression in your learners as they rotate through multiple positions within the companies to learn a huge variety of skills
  • Passionately believe that every young person, no matter their barriers to learning, should have the chance to build professional and personal success

You will be based within a host business, helping build and manage the Supported Internships programme, a structured work-based study programme for young people aged with an Education and Health Care Plan.
The core element of a supported internship study programme is a substantial work placement. You'll work closely with an expert Work-based Tutor to provide rounded support.


Day-to-day you will be responsible for:

  • Working closely with the host businesses to support the interns and ensure they are building the necessary skills for success in their positions
  • Engaging in regular meetings with the host business, the interns and the college to build great working relationships
  • Developing the programme and creating a quality internship that achieves positive outcomes for the amazing young people within it
  • Actively promote and embody the college's FREDIE values of fairness, respect, equality, diversity and engagement

We're open-minded & welcome all applicants who believe they can succeed


Though ideally, you will:

  • Be able to support the workrelated activity each student is undertaking and maintain a dynamic coaching approach
  • Be able to assess each learner's needs and deliver tailored content
  • Have knowledge of the barriers to employment that young people with SEND face, with the passion and tenacity required to help break them down
  • Have knowledge and experience of working with young people with learning difficulties and disabilities

When applying, If there are other roles on our site under the tag 'Inclusion' that you would be interested in, please mention these at the top of the 'supporting information' section and we will be happy to acknowledge your interest for multiple positions.


We're a passionate and dynamic team, looking for enthusiastic people to bring even more new ideas, spirit and creativity to the area.


No two days are the same and we all play a vital role in ensuring our young people achieve and progress.

If you believe that education is key to raising aspirations and expectations then this is the academy for you


We also offer outstanding pension, benefits & annual leave packages

We appreciate your interest and look forward to getting to know you
