Join Our Automotive Team – Shape the Future of the Industry
We’re looking for a passionate, driven and enthusiastic Lecturer to join our Automotive team at a truly exciting time. The automotive industry is evolving rapidly, and so are we — with an expanding department and a brand-new, state-of-the-art workshop, there’s never been a better time to come on board.
This is your opportunity to inspire the next generation of technicians while working in a modern, industry-relevant environment that reflects the latest technology and practices.
You’ll deliver high-quality teaching and training to learners from Entry Level to Level 3, alongside apprentices working towards Automotive Technology standards. The role is primarily focused on light vehicle, but experience in heavy vehicle would give you a real edge.
We’re looking for someone who brings:
- An NVQ Level 3 in Automotive Engineering
- At least 5 years’ hands-on industry experience
- The energy and ambition to engage and motivate learners
An assessor qualification and teaching qualification are both advantageous, but not essential — we’ll support the right candidate to gain these. What matters most is your enthusiasm, communication skills, and drive to develop outstanding vocational training.
You’ll be part of a growing, forward-thinking team delivering a wide range of provision, including full-time courses, apprenticeships, and specialist short programmes — all designed to meet the needs of a fast-moving industry.
If you’re ready to take your automotive career in a new direction and make a real impact, we’d love to hear from you. To apply for this role, please visit our website at http://www.chesterfield.ac.uk/jobs/
Shortlisting for this role may take place as applications are received. We therefore reserve the right to close this vacancy once a suitable candidate has been appointed.
Closing Date: 3 June 2026
Interview Date: TBC
Please upload a supporting statement to your application detailing how you meet the person specification (max 300 words).
An offer of employment at Chesterfield College will be subject to an Enhanced Disclosure carried out by the Disclosure and Barring Service.
