Join St John Ambulance Queensland and Help Build Safer Communities. Teach skills that genuinely save lives. Not all training organisations are the same. At St John, we don’t believe in “tick and flick” training or overcrowded classrooms. We deliver hands‑on, practical first aid education that gives people the confidence to step up in real emergencies.
We’re looking for engaging, professional Trainers & Assessors who want more than just another contract training gig. If you love connecting with people, bringing energy into the room, and making learning real — we’d love to hear from you.
Why Trainers Choose St John
- Consistent and reliable income
- Company vehicle options available
- Equipment and resources supplied
- Small class sizes with quality learner engagement
- Supportive admin and scheduling team
- Career growth into leadership or specialist training roles
- Leave entitlements and superannuation
- Strong team culture and genuine support
- Purpose-driven organisation with over 140 years of community impact
At St John, you focus on delivering exceptional training — we’ll support the rest.
The Role
You’ll deliver engaging first aid and CPR training across workplaces, schools, and community settings throughout Queensland. Your sessions will be practical, interactive, and scenario‑based — helping learners build real confidence, not just complete a certificate.
You’ll:
- Deliver dynamic, hands‑on training sessions
- Create engaging learner experiences
- Assess practical competency and provide feedback
- Adapt training to different industries and learning styles
- Travel to client locations as required
- Help people gain skills that could save a life
What You’ll Bring
- Cert IV in Training & Assessment (or equivalent)
- Experience in training, education, emergency response, healthcare, or similar
- Strong communication and presentation skills
- Confidence facilitating groups and engaging learners
- A professional, reliable, and positive approach
- Commitment to safety, inclusion, and quality training
You’ll also need:
- Current First Aid & CPR certification
- Blue Card (or ability to obtain)
- Criminal History Check (or ability to obtain)
- Driver’s Licence
Why This Role Stands Out
Many RTOs rely heavily on contractors, oversized classes, and volume-based delivery. We do things differently. St John is trusted across Queensland because we prioritise quality training, practical capability, and genuine learner outcomes. Our trainers are supported, valued, and part of a team — not left to manage everything alone. Help us build safer communities, one learner at a time.
