About the Role:
Hart Learning & Development is seeking a passionate and dynamic Employability Tutor to join our team. If you’re an inspiring educator who brings energy, creativity, and commitment to your teaching, we want to hear from you.
You’ll be delivering short, impactful courses to unemployed residents across Herts, Beds, and Bucks, helping them build the skills and confidence needed to re-enter the workforce. This role involves both the delivery and assessment of a range of Level 1 programmes and qualifications, with a particular focus on digital skills and supporting learners facing barriers to employment.
This is more than a teaching role — it’s a chance to change lives.
About the organisation:
At Hart Learning & Development, part of North Hertfordshire College, we’re passionate about helping people and businesses grow. We deliver apprenticeships, adult and professional training across the region and throughout the UK.
We offer high quality programmes in areas like Health, Business, Construction Trades, Management, and Professional Courses, serving companies of all sizes from big names such as the John Lewis Partnership and Lloyds Banking Group to local small businesses.
With a fantastic, dedicated team of 50 staff and a £5 million annual turnover, we’re proud to be making a real difference to both learners and employers.
MORE THAN JUST A SALARY
- Travel expenses covered – We reimburse travel costs so you can focus on making an impact wherever you go.
- Birthday Leave – Enjoy a paid day off to celebrate your birthday, because you deserve it!
- Christmas Break – Our offices close over the festive period so you can relax and recharge.
- Professional Development – We’re a established further education college group, not an independent training provider. That means you’ll get solid, structured training with long-term stability and real opportunities to grow your career year after year.
