The Maritime Studies Department at UHI Orkney, known as “The Nav School”, invites applications from a suitably qualified and experienced maritime engineer to deliver and develop training for seafarers, those working in the maritime and renewables sector and young people aiming to join it.
We are looking for a patient, approachable person, good at communication, to help us develop maritime training.
The Nav School in Stromness has been training local seafarers since and has always responded to new challenges. Now we would like to address new engineering qualifications in the Work Boat sector relevant to Offshore Wind and Renewables as well as continuing to serve the Ferries and Fishing sectors. We also lead the world in maritime hydrogen qualifications and knowledge of that sector is desirable but not essential as training can be given. We currently hold MCA recognition for the UK’s only Hydrogen vessel crew training.
The successful applicant will lead on qualifications to meet the needs of the new workboat code, offshore wind and renewables sector and other operators. They will also deliver Basic STCW courses, STCW refresher training and other short courses. Importantly they would also be involved in our growing schools’ programme. The Nav School is a friendly, supportive and motivated team, keen to welcome a new member.
Applicants should hold an SVQ, HND or other SCQF level 8 qualification in an area relevant to the curriculum remit, or have at least five years’ previous relevant experience. You must also hold an STCW Engineering OOW Certificate of Competency. Knowledge of maritime qualifications and experience in developing others, for example cadets or apprentices, is also essential. The successful candidate will be required to undertake an on-the-job teaching qualification within three years of appointment to enable salary progression.
This post is subject to membership of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme in respect of regulated work with children.
You should be able to travel efficiently and effectively between work locations within Orkney to meet the operational requirements of the Service.
Prospective applicants are invited to discuss the post by contacting Mark Shiner, Curriculum leader on or by email
Closing Date: Sunday 10 November
Please note that interview expenses will be paid for this post, in accordance with Council policy.
