We are seeking a proactive individual with experience in employer engagement, apprenticeship levy conversations, and relationship‑building across multiple sectors.

• Excellent work–life balance supported by senior leadership
• 26 days annual leave, plus 12 additional days, bank holidays, and holiday purchasing scheme
