Turn Your Passion for Catering into a Regional Centre of Excellence
Are you an experienced culinary professional and educator ready to make your mark?
At Rotherham College, we are looking for an inspiring, innovative Curriculum Team Leader to take the reins of our Catering & Hospitality department. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of culinary education in our region—leading an established team, building industry partnerships, and turning our department into a premier Centre of Excellence.
Whether you’re stepping up in your educational leadership career or looking for a high-impact role where your industry knowledge directly shapes young talent, we want to hear from you.
What You’ll Do
As Curriculum Team Leader, you’ll balance hands-on teaching with team leadership, bridging classroom learning, work-based apprenticeships, and commercial operations.
* Lead & Inspire: Guide, support, and mentor a team of Lecturers, Technicians, and Onsite Assessors.
* Teach & Deliver: Deliver approx. 828 teaching hours per year across all qualification levels (including preparation, marking, and learner target-setting).
* Manage & Measure: Oversee course performance, student attendance, retention, and achievement alongside your Curriculum Manager.
* Bridge industry & Classrooms: Leverage your commercial contacts to shape a modern curriculum and secure high-value work placement opportunities for students.
* Run Commercial Learning: Oversee real-world training environments that prepare students for modern industry standards.
You won't be doing this alone. You’ll join a supportive, forward-thinking team of education professionals dedicated to high-quality practical and digital learning. You'll also receive continuous professional development support and a competitive benefits package.
Who We’re Looking For?
We are seeking a collaborative leader who combines strong culinary credentials with exceptional teaching standards:
* Industry Expertise: A solid background in Catering & Hospitality, plus hands-on experience running a commercial environment.
* Teaching & Assessment: Proven experience teaching, assessing, and verifying across various qualification levels. A formal teaching qualification is required (an Assessor’s Award is ideal!) as well as a vocationally relevant qualification at Level 3 or above.
* Leadership Experience: A track record of working in an educational setting, driving high-quality learning outcomes, and motivating a team.
* Networker & Innovator: Ability to collaborate with local industry professionals to keep our study programmes relevant, exciting, and career-focused.
You will be able to lead your team successfully, working collaboratively with colleagues in this area and across other subjects. You will have good contacts with industry professionals and can work with them effectively to shape our future curriculum as well as providing excellent opportunities for our students to gain first-hand experience in this area.
