About the role:
This is an exciting opportunity to join our fast-growing Activate Business School & Activate Apprenticeships team and focus on developing management and leadership capabilities across a number of different sectors.
As a skilled Performance Coach you will be an enabler, helping our learners move forward either to the next level of learning and/or into suitable employment. Your goal will be to develop learners that are confident, committed to their programme of learning, able to maintain a positive mind-set despite setbacks and have the drive and self-belief to achieve their goals. This means empowering learners, raising their aspirations, helping them set personal goals and planning how to get there. They should be confident in where to turn to for support and be comfortable asking for help.
An important aspect of your coaching will be developing our learner’s emotional intelligence, personal attributes and motivation which will be a key enabler to them achieving their short- and long-term career and educational goals and making a positive change for life.
What do you need to be successful in this role?
You will have experience in delivering and quality assuring Level 3 Team Leader or Level 5 Operational Management Apprenticeship programmes. Experience in workshop facilitation as well as assessing CMI qualifications is essential.
As this is a home-based role you will deliver sessions virtually as well as at client sites, so flexibility to travel is required. You will need to have an adaptable approach, coupled with excellent organisational and interpersonal skills. You will demonstrate the ability to engage and develop students and role model the attributes that we aspire to develop within our learners.
