Business Training Manager


37 hours per week, 52 weeks per year 
Salary within the range of £41,808 to £48,093 per annum 


This is an exciting and dynamic role for the right person, delivering a growing and highly responsive programme of business training in the context of major infrastructure developments, including Sizewell C and Freeport East. You will be joining a friendly team, keen to support you to flourish in your role. 


As our Business Training Manager your headline responsibilities are to –

 

  • Lead the ongoing development of our Business Training programme, working with the Department Director, internal curriculum colleagues, Industry Partners and other stakeholders to grow the programme to meet the needs of businesses. There will be a particular immediate focus on the establishment of the recently approved Internet Test Centre, the forthcoming Logistics Academy, and training which meets the needs of the Sizewell C project.
  • Lead the ongoing delivery of business training, building the good reputation of the programme with high quality delivery which provides an excellent learner experience. 
  • Manage the programme on a strong commercial basis, generating income to agreed annual targets, and managing provision flexibly, adapting swiftly to changing demand. 


The ideal candidate will have skills in managing technical and vocational training and a commercial approach, will be confident in engaging with stakeholders and have excellent communication skills. You must also be highly organised and a good team player. You will keep the learner experience at the centre of everything you do.
Suffolk New College is a multi-campus college, therefore you may be required to work at and travel between campuses. This role will be split mainly between the Suffolk Rural and Ipswich campuses, with significant work over time at Suffolk New College on the Coast in Leiston as our links with the Sizewell C project develop.
Due to the nature of this role access to personal transport is essential. If using your own vehicle, it is a requirement for your car insurance to cover business use and evidence of this will be requested by finance before any travel claims are paid.
At Suffolk New College, we promote the culture of BeSNC. Implementing BeSNC is not just a choice; it's a commitment to providing the best possible environment for our learners to thrive. It's a commitment to nurturing an inclusive and supportive community where each student, staff and community member can reach their full potential.

Why Join Us?

For more than 60 years, nuclear power stations in the UK have been quietly keeping Britain fuelled with massive amounts of home-grown energy.

Our teams up and down the country are proudly continuing to serve the nation – but they also have an eye on the future.

EDF is leading the UK's nuclear renaissance with the construction of a new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C and plans for a new power station at Sizewell C in Suffolk.

Nuclear power is the most reliable, low-carbon energy source currently available to the UK. EDF is playing a key role in the development of nuclear sites, while Hinkley Point C will provide low-carbon electricity to meet 7% of the UK demand. The project is already making a positive impact on the local and national economy as well as boosting skills and education.

We’re not just building new nuclear power stations. We’re developing careers, upskilling generations and creating thousands of employment and apprenticeship opportunities across a variety of skills areas.

It takes a special kind of person to work in the nuclear energy industry and although we have thousands of them there’s always a need for more.

Our industry has a mind-boggling range of opportunities and more jobs, and in more places, than you might think. But it’s also an industry which is changing.

We’re a responsible business and proud to be Britain’s biggest generator of zero carbon electricity. With size, age and experience, we believe we can do even more.
