An exciting opportunity to join the Apprenticeship and Skills department has arisen. The post of Work Based Tutor in Agriculture has become available due to the current post holder taking up another position within the College.

This is an opportunity to work with employers and apprentices, currently delivering the Stockperson Standard through workplace visits and classroom based theory lessons.
