About The Workery

WHO WE ARE (AND WHAT WE PROVE)

Some people think you can’t teach hands-on, practical trades online. We’re here to prove them wrong.

At The Workery, we’ve built a system that works. Clear lessons. Practical, real-world tasks. Expert feedback. Dedicated support. When you put those together, online learning starts to feel a lot more hands-on.

We started in France, supporting over 20,000 learners to master new crafts with an incredible 98% exam pass rate. Now, we are bringing our proven model to the UK to help a new generation of learners build real skills, change direction, and take their futures into their own hands.

To do that, we need the best in the business. We need a true expert who wants to share his knowledge.

🎯 The Mission

As our Lead Furniture Making Trainer within our Learning Business Unit, you won’t just be lecturing from a script. You will be the architect of our UK Furniture Making course and the face of the program.

Your goal? To take complex, manual techniques and translate them into a digital curriculum that is clear, accessible, and highly practical. You will show aspiring professional furniture makers how to take their passion and turn it into a lifelong career.

What You’ll Do:

Build and adapt the Path (Instructional Design): Structure a comprehensive, step-by-step learning journey. You’ll design the lessons, the practical tasks, and the assessments that prove our learners have got what it takes.
Step Up to the Camera (Content Production): Write the scripts and get in front of the camera. You'll perform live technical demonstrations, explaining the core mechanics of the craft with absolute clarity.
Command the Network (Expertise & Partnerships): Act as the ultimate furniture making authority for our pedagogical team. Build and manage a network of external assessors, suppliers, and trade partners to make our curriculum second to none.

🕵️ Who we're looking for

We are looking for someone who has lived the trade, mastered the tools, and is ready to show others how to do the same. This isn’t a role for theorists.

This is for you if:

You know your craft inside out: You have at least 5 to 10 years of professional furniture-making experience under your belt, with an absolute mastery of UK market standards.
You are a natural trainer: You have experience lecturing or instructing, and you know how to break down complex techniques so they are simple to understand.
You possess the Coach’s mindset: You are patient, encouraging, and clear. You know when to support a learner and when to push them to sharpen their technique.
You are ready for change: You want to apply your hard-earned trade skills in a modern, innovative way and are comfortable working with digital tools.
You speak the language: You are completely fluent in English and possess excellent communication skills.
