Job Description

Calling all recent or soon to be graduates in Wolverhampton – your next adventure starts here!

Have you recently graduated and are now looking for a role that’s exciting, flexible, and genuinely rewarding? Maybe you’ve gained experience as a sports coach, youth worker, or supported young people in a school setting — and now you’re ready for your next step. If that sounds like you, this opportunity could be the perfect fit.

Zest Education is working alongside a number of dynamic and supportive secondary schools across Wolverhampton and the surrounding areas, all seeking enthusiastic Cover Supervisors to join their teams. Positions are available to start in September.

✨ What does a Cover Supervisor do?

As a Cover Supervisor, you’ll step into the teacher’s shoes when they are absent — without the planning or marking. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Delivering engaging, pre-prepared lessons to students aged 11–18
  • Keeping classes focused, motivated, and on task
  • Managing classroom behaviour calmly and positively
  • Feeding back to school staff about lesson progress and behaviour

With no planning workload, your role is to guide, support, and ensure learning continues smoothly.

🌟 Why this role is perfect for you

  • No lesson planning required — just bring your energy and commitment
  • Flexible working patterns — choose full-time or part-time
  • A brilliant stepping stone into teaching or education pathways
  • Every day is different — from English to Science to PE!

Whether you’re exploring a future career in teaching or simply seeking a fulfilling role working with young people, this is a fantastic opportunity.

🧠 What we’re looking for

  • At least 20 days’ experience working with young people (school, youth work, sports coaching, etc.)
  •  Or a degree, but not essential — enthusiasm, reliability, and confidence are key
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport quickly

💼 What’s in it for you?

  • Competitive pay (dependent on experience and references)
  • Supportive, forward-thinking school environments
  • The chance to make a genuine difference in young people’s lives
  • Free parking/on-site parking depending on school

📌 Job Types

Full-time · Part-time · Permanent · Temporary

🔒 Safeguarding

Zest Education is an APSCo-audited agency committed to safeguarding children.
All candidates must have (or be willing to obtain):

  • An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or be willing to apply)
  • References covering the last two years
  • Successfully pass all safeguarding checks

This role is open to recent graduates or individuals with relevant, recent experience in schools following the British Curriculum.
