Teaching Assistant

Have you reached a point in your life where you want your work to mean more than just a paycheck? If you have a lifetime of experience in patience, empathy, and problem-solving, the students in Cranleigh need your wisdom.

Randstad is proud to support a specialist trust in Cranleigh, Surrey, that provides a sanctuary for students with diverse learning needs. We are seeking a dependable, compassionate individual to join the team full-time-someone who can be a steady, guiding presence in the classroom.

Many of our most successful Teaching Assistants didn't start in education. They come from various walks of life-nursing, parenting, management, or the arts-bringing a "calm in the storm" energy that helps our students thrive.

In this role, you will:

• Mentor and Guide: Help students navigate their educational journey with patience and understanding.

• Build Stability: As a full-time member of the team, you become a trusted face that students rely on every day.

• Collaborate: Work alongside dedicated teachers and therapists to create an inclusive, supportive environment.

We aren't looking for a specific degree; we are looking for a specific character.

• Life Experience: You've seen it all, and you know how to stay calm, patient, and kind under pressure.

• Reliability: You understand the importance of showing up for young people who need consistency.

• A Nurturing Spirit: You have a genuine desire to see young people with complex needs reach their full potential.

• Communication: You can connect with people from all walks of life.

• Schedule: Full-time (Monday-Friday), offering a consistent routine within the school term.

• Location: A prestigious, scenic campus in Cranleigh.

• Support: You will receive full guidance and training within a structured, professional department.

If you're ready to apply your life skills to a role that truly matters, we would love to hear from you. This isn't just a job; it's a chance to be the person a student remembers forever.
