Job Details

The Role:
As a Computing and Digital Curriculum Manager you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. You’ll join a friendly and diverse team at the Westminster Adult Education Service (WAES), and focus on delivering teaching, learning and assessment of the highest standard while developing an exciting and ambitious curriculum that meets our growth targets. Managing the staff in your portfolio, conducting reviews of their work and identifying their training needs, you’ll also keep up to speed with all the relevant developments in funding, policy, curriculum and employment.

Committed to ensuring our learners are supported appropriately and access arrangements are available to those who need them, you’ll monitor and track the learner journey to maximise outcomes, undertake course evaluations and contribute to the self-assessment process. We’ll also expect you to ensure courses meet the requirements of the awarding bodies, and work with our stakeholders to build upon the work of the Westminster Digital Academy while ensuring KPIs for interview and job outcomes are met or exceeded.

You’ll be dedicated to promoting our activities both internally and with the wider education and employment sectors, and develop links with other academies to review best practice. Always ready to adopt new initiatives and innovations, you’ll encourage our alumni to provide talks, workshops, masterclasses and case studies for new entrants to the sector, and work to bring new employers into the Academy’s orbit.

About You:
With well developed experience of curriculum development and working in a post-16 education environment, you’ll be capable of tracking and monitoring learners in ways that lead to high-achieving outcomes. A motivating team leader and inspirational teacher and assessor, you’ll have a good understanding of safeguarding legislation and its application within the educational sector.

Committed to the principles of equity and diversity, you’ll be a hands-on problem solver with excellent organisational and time management abilities, and your superb interpersonal and communication skills will make you an excellent people manager.

We’ll expect you to hold a teaching and learning qualification at level 5, a degree or professional qualification in a Digital or Computing subject, and Level 2 English and Numeracy or its equivalent. You should also have strong IT skills, including MS 365 and associated applications, and IQA or other Assessor/IV qualifications would be desirable.
