If you’ve ever considered a career change from scaffolding to teaching, now is the time.
The CITB’s National Construction College (NCC) is looking for experienced scaffolders to join its team of instructors and help train the next generation of industry professionals.
With open days on Thursday, 28th November, and Saturday, 30th November, at both Bircham Newton and Erith, it’s the perfect chance to explore what this career shift could mean for you.
Why Consider a Role at NCC?
For seasoned scaffolders, becoming an instructor offers more than just a change of pace. It’s a chance to pass on years of real and practical experience. You’ll be responsible for guiding the next wave of talent entering the construction industry to seasoned professionals looking to upskill; you’ll support learners through everything from core skills to specialised CISRS and SITS training.
As CITB Instructor Jordan Hurry explains, “Every day is different and comes with unique challenges and greater rewards. I feel immense job satisfaction knowing I’m helping shape the future of our trade.”
Meet Jordan Hurry – A Journey from Scaffolder to Instructor
Jordan, a former scaffolder with 13 years in the field, made the switch to teaching at NCC just over a year ago. With experience across various projects, he now applies his hands-on knowledge to inspire new learners.
“I wanted to make a difference and prove that scaffolding is a skilled trade,” says Jordan. “Now, instead of working on-site with tubes and spanners, I’m helping learners build their futures.”
Since joining NCC, Jordan has completed his Level 3 Teaching and Education qualification and was recently promoted to lecturer. His journey showcases the opportunities available for those ready to make the leap into teaching.
Why Join the NCC Team?
At NCC, instructors enjoy:
- Competitive pay and benefits
- Professional training and development opportunities
- A supportive team environment where innovation is encouraged
With NCC’s ongoing investments in modernising content and infrastructure, it’s an exciting time to become part of this team.
