Recruitment Specialist Tracey Edwards shares the benefits of working at Reaseheath College and University Centre Reaseheath, both of which enjoyed extensive growth in 2021.

One of the things that Reaseheath prides itself on is being industry focused and despite COVID-19 we’ve still been able to develop several new employer partners who will play a large part in supporting and enhancing the curriculum for our students going forward.

Just some of the businesses we have partnered with recently include First Bus, with who we have established the UK’s first bus and coach engineering academy for apprentices, and Lely who supported us with the installation of a technologically advanced, automated robotic milking system on our campus farm.

Join the Reaseheath family

Due to this substantial growth, we are excited to be recruiting for a number of academic and support roles in various departments including animal management, agriculture, construction, finance and IT.

So, if you are looking for your first role or for a new challenge in your career and you would like to feel you’re making a difference to peoples’ lives, take a look at our vacancies page today.
