Apprenticeships are increasingly important for the recruitment, retention and training of staff. They apply at all levels, across all disciplines, with more apprenticeship standards being approved nationally. The Apprenticeship Assessor/Coach is a key specialist role in our Faculty of Education.

You will work with a diverse range of internal colleagues and external partners to create apprenticeship opportunities that enable staff to develop and progress, regardless of where they work in the Trust or the job they do.
