Essential:
A qualification in Business, Retail, Customer Service or similar (L3 or above)

A teaching qualification (PTLLS/AET/Cert Ed or equivalent)

Knowledge of Business & Retail curriculum at Level 1 and 2

Experience teaching or supporting young people in FE, training or youth settings

Strong communication and classroom management skills

A belief that every young person deserves a second chance
