We’re looking for an enthusiastic and knowledgeable Accountancy Tutor to join our team.

- Deliver engaging, inclusive and high-quality accountancy teaching and assessment.
- Support learners to make strong progress, achieve their qualifications and progress into employment or further learning.
- Monitor learner performance and intervene early where additional support is needed.
- Maintain high standards of quality, compliance and professional practice, including AAT and awarding-body requirements.
- Build strong relationships with employers and ensure training reflects their skills needs.
- Represent Focus at employer meetings, events and professional networking opportunities.

- The ability to engage, motivate and develop learners.
- Confidence building relationships with employers and external stakeholders.
- Strong organisation and digital skills.
- A proactive approach to identifying opportunities and developing provision.

In return, you’ll have the opportunity to develop professionally, stay connected to industry and play an important role in shaping the future of accountancy training at Focus.
