Do you have a background in teaching and assessment in the beauty industry ? Are you looking for a rewarding role to make a difference to rehabilitating prisoners ? Well look no further !... Sodexo are currently seeking a dedicated Beauty Therapy Tutor to work within HMP YOI Bronzefield.  As a Beauty Therapy Tutor, you will support learners to increase their skills and pass the accredited training provide. You will work alongside other tutors within the hair and beauty industry and external agencies to increase prisoners’ employability after release. With your passion for people you will help to manage learning, challenge negative behaviour and increase self-esteem whilst working within the in-house commercial salon.
