With nearly 14,000 students and 1,000 members of staff, the College is a major employer in the area and makes a significant impact on the lives and future prospects of its learners who travel from across London to study with us. The College is also the sponsor of London South East Academies Trust, a growing Multi-Academy which is rapidly developing a track record of academic and financial success. With a combined turnover of circa £65m and the ambitious growth plans of the group, there has never been a better time to join this exciting organisation.

Benefits
There are excellent pension schemes, including employer contributions (Teachers’ Pension Scheme, Local Government Pension Scheme or Nest). Staff also have access to our Employee Assistance Programme, free onsite parking, salary sacrifice cycle to work/bike loan scheme and annual season ticket loan. You will have access to onsite gym at Bromley, discounts in inhouse restaurants and hair and beauty treatments.

Accreditations
As employers, we recognise and embrace our legal and quality-assurance framework responsibilities, and use these frameworks, as well as other accreditations and schemes, to further develop our development and progress of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. We also acknowledge that there is always more that we can learn, and so we use these accreditations to provide an external lens and share/gain best-practice information.
