Chief Executive Officer

Ambitions Academies Trust

Salary: Highly competitive with relocation package available

Contract: Full time, permanent

Award-winning Ambitions Academies Trust is seeking an inspiring Chief Executive Officer with exceptional leadership skills and commitment to improving the life chances of all children

The Trust was created in March 2012 and now comprises thirteen academies, located over fifteen sites, based across Bournemouth, Poole and Weymouth with the Trust Offices situated in Poole. Relationships between the academies are strong and they work closely together to collaborate, challenge and learn together in pursuit of excellence.

We are a forward-thinking trust, providing high quality education across all sectors, primary, secondary and special. We are especially proud of our impressive track record in long term transformation of academies in the most challenging circumstances. We work with our academies to ensure that our pupils and young people have the opportunities to achieve the very best both in and outside of the classroom and to prepare them well for success in their future lives.

The opportunity to continue and build on the successes of the Trust has arisen due to the retirement of our highly-respected CEO. We are seeking a leader with considerable and relevant experience who can work closely with the Trust Board to develop future strategy and lead the Trust through the next phase of its development and growth.

If you are confident that you have the skills, drive and vision to inspire and lead our teams to make this a reality, we would like to hear from you.
