Contract Type: Freelance or Fixed Term
Hours: Full Time
Salary: GBP18,700 to GBP25,000
Looking for a new challenge?
Are you an existing Trainer Assessor or do you have experience working in health and social care, perhaps with learning difficulty, dementia, or end of life care experience? Do you have a passion for helping people? Do you want to work from home? Are you based in or close to Somerset? Then this may be the perfect opportunity for you.
What will the role involve?
You will be a home based field worker with a caseload of learners under your guidance. You'll manage your own diary and will work a 37.5 hour week. You will visit care homes within your region and work with the on-site learners. You will utilise your experience and inspire, train and support learners to successfully complete their apprenticeship in the workplace, through face to face discussions, remote assessments, use of internet based portfolios, and web based Maths and English learning solutions.
You'll tailor and devise individual learning plans, identify any additional learning needs, and provide the learner with all relevant information, guidance and resources to ensure their progress is kept on track.
What skills are we looking for?
To be successful as a Health & Social Care Trainer Assessor at learndirect you must be approachable, self-motivated and possess high levels of empathy. You must be an excellent negotiator and able to use your initiative to solve problems, often involving different stakeholders. We are looking for people who have worked in the Care Sector or have previous assessor experience.
As a remote worker it's critical that you're able to manage your time and diary effectively, and can work independently and flexibly, responding positively to change. As you will be visiting learners at various care homes in the Somerset area it is essential you have a driving license and access to your own vehicle.
You must be comfortable working with a range of IT packages so that you can access and utilise the technology available. You'll be required to support learners to achieve a level 2 qualification in Maths and English so you must be able to demonstrate this level of competence yourself.
