At Polaris , we are proud to be one of the UK's leading communities of children's service providers. For over 30 years, we have been dedicated to improving the lives of young people through our independent fostering and adoption agencies, leaving care services, education, and bespoke children's services contracts. Our nurturing community is committed to achieving the best outcomes for every child in our care, and we believe in the potential of our children, families, and staff.

Join a warm, ambitious, and values-driven team that truly cares about making a difference!

We are on the lookout for a creative and passionate Trainer who thrives on training, connecting with people, and embracing a bit of adventure.

• Delivering engaging learning sessions in schools, residential homes, and online webinars—wherever our learners are!
• Designing fun, fresh, and structured training content that truly resonates.
• Creating high-quality resources for our virtual learning environment.
• Bringing energy, enthusiasm, and confidence to every group, big or small.
• Collaborating closely with colleagues to shape courses that make a real impact.

Note: Occasional travel to our offices, schools, and our Bromsgrove/Milton Keynes head office is part of the role.

You are someone who:

• Loves teaching, presenting, or facilitating and feels at home in both face-to-face settings and webinars.
• Brings energy, humor, and connection into every session.
• Can stay calm and professional even when things get busy.
• Enjoys juggling multiple tasks and prioritizing effectively.
• Thrives in a team environment and values building relationships.
• Has solid IT skills (Microsoft Office, including PowerPoint, and LMS systems) and a flair for producing high-quality learning content.
• Is open to running occasional early evening or twilight sessions when needed.

While training/teaching qualifications or VLE experience are a plus, your passion and skills are what truly matter to us!
