We are looking for a Pre-Police/Uniformed Service Tutor to join our Christchurch campus for the new year.

In this role, you will be walking into an energetic campus environment where value is placed on delivering outcomes rather than micro-managing work and tasks. You will be given autonomy to work in a way that gets the best results and will be expected to take responsibility and make things happen.
Some of your key responsibilities:
