Westmorland and Furness Council
We are looking for an enthusiastic and self-motivated Digital Skills Tutor, ideally with experience of working in an Adult Education environment. We offer an exciting range of Digital Skills courses from absolute beginner to Level 2 qualifications.
The ideal candidate will have experience in delivering qualifications and will have the ability to inspire our learners to achieve successful outcomes.

We offer classes in various venues, with classes running during the day and evening; therefore, it is desirable that the successful applicant will be flexible to meet the needs of our local communities.
This job opportunity would allow you to help reduce social isolation, improve digital wellbeing, and allow learners to develop skills that are essential for everyday life and work.
As a service, we are working towards achieving an Outstanding Ofsted judgement, and we are looking for an excellent practitioner who can contribute positively to this goal.
