Functional Skills Tutor (Maths)

We are Multiverse, a tech scaleup with a social mission. We’re creating a diverse group of future leaders by building an outstanding alternative to university and corporate training, through the power of professional apprenticeships.

We’re one of the fastest-growing businesses in Europe and rapidly expanding in North America, working with over 500 clients including McKinsey & Co, Morgan Stanley, Verizon and Visa. In June 2022, we broke the EdTech funding record (again!) by announcing our $220m Series D, making Multiverse the UK’s first ever EdTech unicorn.

Join us on our journey to democratising access to the best careers and learning opportunities.

The opportunity

We are looking for a dynamic teacher to join our rapidly expanding Functional Skills team. You will support the team as we build on our foundations to deliver industry-leading content to the apprentice body. You will be passionate about the Multiverse values as well as developing Maths skills.

We deliver a range of exciting apprenticeships to varied groups, from Digital Marketing apprenticeships at Google to Management apprenticeships at Westminster City Council. Apprentices who don’t have GCSEs in Maths and/or English work towards completing their Functional Skills Level 2 qualifications with us.

• You can prepare, plan and deliver quality learning programmes to small groups remotely

• Deliver excellent and engaging Maths sessions to individuals and groups. Each apprentice will attend 8 of your sessions before going forward to the exam
• Build an understanding of international qualification equivalencies and support the Functional Skills team with processes regarding qualification compliance
• Strive to increase the first time pass rate and for apprentices to have completed Functional Skills by month 6 of their apprenticeship
