Job Description
At AE Talent Solutions our mission is simple yet profound: to connect exceptional talent with exceptional opportunities. We are dedicated to empowering organizations with top-tier candidates and helping individuals achieve their career aspirations.
Our client is looking for a Workshop White Goods Instructor to lead a purposeful prison-based workshop at HMP Millsike, focused on refurbishing donated white goods such as fridges, freezers, and washing machines for reuse in the local community.
This is a workshop where practical skills meet real social impact. Prisoners gain valuable technical experience, contribute to sustainability, and support low-income households through access to affordable, refurbished appliances.
You’ll oversee the day-to-day running of a busy, hands-on workshop, managing the refurbishment process from donation through to finished product. At the same time, you’ll supervise and support prisoners as they develop practical skills, grow in confidence, and work toward employment-readiness.
You’ll embed key employability behaviours through daily routines, support the delivery of vocational qualifications (such as warehousing where relevant), and ensure that workshop operations run smoothly, safely, and in line with prison protocols.
Key Responsibilities:
* Induct prisoners into the workshop, providing guidance on safety, stock control, and the handling of tools and equipment.
* Lead, motivate, and supervise the workshop team as they refurbish white goods for community use.
* Set daily production targets and quality standards, ensuring refurbished items meet required checks before reuse or resale.
* Promote a rehabilitative working environment using restorative practices and positive reinforcement.
* Ensure full compliance with health, safety, and security procedures including risk assessments, tool control, and Level A/B searches.
* Support employability development through the Employability Passport and, where relevant, deliver or assess warehousing qualifications.
* Monitor attendance and productivity, keeping accurate records and contributing to prisoner case reports as needed.
* Collaborate with Work & Skills Coaches and other prison staff to ensure joined-up support for everyone’s development.
Experience and Qualifications:
* Experience in maintenance, repair, warehousing, or a related technical field—ideally involving white goods or electrical appliances.
* Level 2 Diploma in Electrical Installation or Engineering Technology (desirable).
* A certificate in 224 Appliance Repair or 221 Washing Machine Repair (desirable).
* The ability to manage people and maintain structure in a busy work environment.
* A strong understanding of health and safety in a workshop setting.
* Good organisational skills to manage stock, workflows, and production targets.
* A positive and collaborative attitude, with strong communication skills.
* Awareness of prison security procedures, or a willingness to learn.
Experience in training or assessing vocational qualifications is a bonus, but not essential we’ll support the right person to develop these skills.
Company Benefits:
* 30 days annual leave.
* Cycle to Work scheme.
* Access to hundreds of discounts via the Additions portal.
* Employee Assistance Programme.
* Access to online wellbeing centre.
* Enhanced Wedding leave.
* A paid volunteering day each year.
* Enhanced Maternity scheme.
* Refer a Friend reward scheme.
* Holiday purchase scheme
* Pension scheme.
* Life assuranceBefore You Apply
