The National Education Union (NEU) is a force for change in the world of education, bringing together more than 500,000 teachers, lecturers, support staff and leaders working in the education sector. We are working in an exciting period of growth, with activity across the education sector.

We are looking to recruit a Training Coordinator who will provide central logistical support and event co-ordination to the National Training Manager and Training Team in the day-to-day organisation, promotion and delivery of the unions’ reps’ and officers’ training programme, which has recently been expanding. In this busy role, you will need to manage day-to-day budget systems for a significant annual budget, lead on publicity for training courses and maintain systems of reporting on, and quality assurance of, training courses.

Prospective applicants will need to be comfortable working on their own initiative and have excellent organisational skills, liaising with both internal and external stakeholders at different levels, thus excellent communications skills are also essential in this role.

In addition to salary, we offer good conditions including a non-superannuable luncheon allowance currently set at £1,308, 35 days’ annual leave plus Christmas closure days and a defined benefit pension scheme. The NEU also operates a Blended Working Arrangement Policy which means colleagues can occasionally work from home subject to business needs. Salary and benefits will be pro-rata for part-time applicants.
