Agricultural Engineering Lecturer
Kent
£23,903 to £32,157 p/a
Full-time, permanent

We are currently working with an FE college in the Kent area that are looking for an Agricultural Engineering Lecturer to join their team on a permanent, full-time basis.

The college is a specialist in land-based courses such as Agricultural Engineering, and has a great reputation for offering a high quality level of teaching in this subject area.

The position is a full-time role of 37 hours per week, and would involve the delivery of a variety of Land-based Engineering courses, ranging from level 1 to level 3. The teaching on the level 1 and level 2 courses will mostly be based in the college’s workshop, although the level 3 course has a 50/50 split between workshop and classroom sessions.

You will need to have a sound practical background in agricultural engineering with experience in the operation, overhaul and repair of agricultural and associated machinery (ie. tractors, ploughs, combine harvesters, etc). They are requiring a candidate who has experience of maintaining agricultural vehicles and machinery (including stripping down and rebuilding engines).

The role would be based at the college’s main campus, and all of the delivery would take place there. The starting FTE salary would be between £28,683.6 and £32,157 per annum, although if you do not have a teaching qualification already, the maximum salary that they could possibly offer would be £28,970. You would also get a final salary teacher’s pension in addition to a very generous holiday allocation of 38 days plus Bank Holidays.

To apply for the role, you MUST have:
-Experience of maintaining agricultural machinery

Please note that you don’t need a teaching qualification in order to apply to this role, as the college would be able to put you through one if you don’t have one already.

Please feel free to pass on my details if you know someone who might be interested.
