This is an exciting and diverse brand new role for the right person, joining a dynamic, growing Directorate within our thriving College. You will be joining a friendly team, keen to support you to flourish in your role.

As our Skills for Business Coach you will deliver our ePass+ training programme, working with employees from local businesses to develop their soft skills for the workplace. There will be an opportunity to deliver other training, with a focus on personal development, management and presentation skills. You will also form part of a college-wide employer engagement team, working with businesses to assess their training needs and match these with the College offer.

The ideal candidate will be confident in delivering training sessions to employers and have strong communication skills. You must also be highly organised, a good team player, and have an engaging professional manner with stakeholders. You will keep the learner experience at the centre of everything you do.

This post is based at Suffolk New College, Ipswich Campus; however, Suffolk New College is a multi-campus college, and you will be required to work at and travel between campuses.

Due to the nature of this role access to personal transport is essential. If using your own vehicle, it is a requirement for your car insurance to cover business use and evidence of this will be requested by finance before any travel claims are paid.

At Suffolk New College, we promote the culture of BeSNC. Implementing BeSNC is not just a choice; it's a commitment to providing the best possible environment for our learners to thrive. It's a commitment to nurturing an inclusive and supportive community where each student, staff and community member can reach their full potential.
