Are you passionate about helping young people succeed? Do you have a talent for guiding learners through life’s challenges and supporting their growth both academically and personally?
We’re looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Personal Development (PD) Coach to join our team and make a real difference in the lives of our students.
As a PD Coach, you’ll initially be embedded in our Construction Department, working alongside teachers and support staff to help students stay engaged, build essential skills, and move confidently towards further study or employment.

•   Experience working with young people or learners in an educational, youth work, or pastoral support setting.
•   Knowledge of safeguarding, EHCPs, and student support services.
•   Strong communication skills and the ability to inspire and support learners from diverse backgrounds.
•   Confidence using digital learning tools and an interest in assistive technology.
•   A flexible, team-oriented attitude and the drive to go the extra mile.
Why Join Us?
You’ll become part of a college that places students at the heart of everything we do. We offer:
•   A supportive and collaborative working environment
•   Ongoing professional development and training
•   Opportunities to be creative and influence the direction of the student support offer
