Key Notes
Deep knowledge of employer-provider apprenticeships, DfE funding, Ofsted and safeguarding is required for this end-to-end learner-management post. You’ll oversee induction, placements, progress reviews, performance, reasonable adjustments and programme compliance for apprentices, including people in operational and safety-critical settings. The 12-month fixed-term Acton role pays circa £47,000 and is hybrid; applications close 27 September 2026.
What You'll Work On
- Manage apprentices through induction, placements, progress reviews, assessment plans, performance support and successful completion across operational and safety-critical environments.
- Coordinate placement managers, trainers, assessors and external providers so on-the-job and off-the-job learning meet scheme requirements.
- Update apprenticeship delivery plans as standards change, integrating specialist training, reasonable adjustments and targeted interventions for individual learners.
- Maintain evidence and controls for DfE funding, Ofsted, awarding bodies, safeguarding, Prevent, health and safety and TfL quality audits.
Why This Role Matters
- TfL apprentices move through placements and progress reviews towards recognised qualifications; recorded learner progress identifies where additional support or changes to training arrangements are needed.
- DfE funding, safeguarding and Ofsted requirements apply to TfL’s apprenticeship provision; complete records allow the employer-provider to demonstrate how training and learner support meet those requirements.
What They Are Looking For
- Qualification: Level 3 qualification or equivalent professional experience, plus safeguarding training at Level 2 or above.
- Domain: In-depth knowledge of employer-provider apprenticeship delivery, DfE funding rules, Ofsted and awarding-body requirements.
- Stakeholder: Applicants need ability to coach apprentices and influence placement managers, trainers and assessors across multiple teams.
- Experience: Applicants need knowledge of safeguarding, Prevent, equality, diversity and health and safety in learner environments.
- Technical: Applicants need capability using HR, learner and reporting systems to track progress, evidence and audit requirements.
