Job description


We have a great opportunity to join our Education team as a Catering & Hospitality Trainer for Novus, the prison education provider at
HMP Feltham.
This role is offered on a permanent, full-time basis working 37 hrs per week.

What the role entails


In this role, you will work with, and be supported by, our amazing team of dedicated professionals to mentor our learners to develop Catering & Hospitality skills, which will in turn help them to secure future employment opportunities post release.

You will need patience, passion and understanding in your approach to our learners who have 'hit a bump in the road' but want to learn and improve.

Working in a prison is different to a mainstream education facility.

We operate with security at the forefront of what we do, so our class sizes are small to maximise supportive delivery.

To aid this you also will be supported by Learning Support Practitioners who will support with one to one when required.

Our security team are on hand to ensure the lessons run smoothly. We always try to cater to a learner's individual needs and ensure we create a positive learner experience.

Time will be given to planning and your Local Education Manager is always on hand to provide support as and when needed.

Delivery happens between Monday and Friday and weekends are strictly for rest and relaxation.


What we need from you
To be successful in the role of Catering & Hospitality Trainer, you will need:

  • Significant Hospitality & Catering service experience.
  • A flexible approach to working in a fastpaced environment
  • Excellent interpersonal skills
  • The ability to track and monitor learner progress against course criteria.
  • Willingness to gain an Award in Education & Training
  • A Level 2 qualification in catering or hospitality, or a willingness to gain one
  • Commitment to gain an assessor award required by relevant awarding bodies
  • Hold at least a Level 1 qualification in Literacy and Numeracy or be willing to commit to gaining the qualification(s) within 1 year.
  • Gain, hold and maintain a clean, enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check


Ideally, you will want to be a part of a team which has at its core a focus on improving lives and enabling and equipping learners to develop, grow and be equipped for a life of work and success.

You'll be a self-starter with a passion to learn and grow yourself and will bring passion, dedication and positivity to your new role.


Colleague Benefits
As part of the LTE Group family, you will benefit from an excellent package including:

  • Extensive annual leave which can be taken throughout the year and not restricted to school holiday times
  • Monday to Friday working pattern
  • Our inhouse 'Evolve' training programme, which offers you the chance to upskill and further your career through a wide range of recognised qualifications
  • We support you through a teacher training qualification and assessor qualifications
  • Full package of training to support working in a Prison environment
  • Good progression routes into management positions within education
  • Learner class sizes are much smaller than FE colleges
  • Able to be flexible and innovative with the curriculum
  • Part of the wider community of the prison service
  • Additional behavioural and complex need support
  • Various pension scheme options including a Local Government Pension Scheme offering an Teachers Pension scheme offering a 23.68% Employer Contribution.
