We’re already a successful college, but we’re continually striving to be better and do better - be part of our story!
Based at both the Huddersfield and Dewsbury Centres, but with willingness to work at any of the other college sites as required and discussed in advance.
Due to growth within the ESOL department we have exciting opportunities for flexible and dedicated tutors to join our ESOL team. We have a range of hours available during the day and evening. Based at either the Huddersfield or Dewsbury Centre.
