- Teacher Support & Advocacy: Act as a trusted peer and mentor to educators, helping them seamlessly integrate ITZA into their daily teaching practice, while ensuring alignment with Scotland’s Curriculum for Excellence (CfE).
- Relationship Management: Build and maintain long-term, collaborative relationships with key decision-makers, school leaders, and digital learning coordinators.
- Feedback Loop: Gather insights and feedback directly from educators in the field to help guide ITZA’s ongoing product development and content strategy.
Requirements & Experience
- Teaching Background: Current or former teaching experience in Scotland with a thorough understanding of the Scottish education system, Curriculum for Excellence (CfE), and current school priorities.
- Passion for Pedagogy: Genuine enthusiasm for improving teaching practice and supporting fellow educators with practical, engaging digital tools.
- Presentation & Facilitation Skills: Confident communicator capable of inspiring and engaging groups of teachers, headteachers, and local authority stakeholders.
- Mobility & Flexibility: Willingness and ability to travel to schools and local authority offices across Scotland as required.
- Self-Motivation: Ability to manage your own schedule, prioritise outreach targets, and work independently with accountability.
- Established networks or contacts within Scottish Local Authorities or Regional Improvement Collaboratives (RICs).
- Experience with digital learning technologies, edtech platforms, or educational consulting/sales.

Contract Type: Freelance / Subcontractor basis.
Hours: Part-time with flexible timing (mutually agreed based on outreach demand and candidate availability).
