A dynamic educational institution in Watford is seeking a Careers and Progression Advisor to help students shape their future paths. In this full-time role, you will provide one-on-one and group guidance on topics such as CV writing and university applications. Ideal candidates will possess a qualification in careers guidance or a commitment to achieving one, along with a track record of working with learners. The position comes with a generous benefits package and opportunities for personal development.
West Herts College Group has an exciting opportunity for a Careers and Progression Advisor to join our dynamic GAP team. We have full-time opportunity available based at our Watford Campus.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, student-focused individual who is passionate about guiding learners towards their future goals. If you are someone who is resilient and able to build positive relationships with both internal and external stakeholders with a commitment to maintaining a student focused provision, then we welcome your application.
You will play a vital role in helping students make informed decisions about their next steps, whether that’s university, apprenticeships, employment, or further training. From delivering engaging group sessions on topics like CV writing and the UCAS process to providing one-to-one careers guidance, you will ensure every student has access to high-quality, impartial support tailored to their individual needs.
The successful candidates should hold, be working towards, or willing to work towards a recognised qualification in careers guidance (e.g. Level 3 or 4 in Careers Guidance and Development or equivalent). Experience of working with young people in an educational setting and knowledge of careers education frameworks such as the Gatsby Benchmarks or Matrix Standard would be highly advantageous.
You will be supported by a high performing team and will work closely with colleagues across curriculum areas, as well as with employers, universities, and community partners to bring careers education to life. Training and development opportunities are embedded in our culture, and you will be encouraged to grow your skills and innovate in your delivery.
These roles will be 37 hours per week.
The closing date for applications is Wednesday 21st January 2026.
