About The Role
The role
We are seeking to appoint an experienced and highly organised Operations Manager with fantastic attention to detail for our school. This is an exciting opportunity to join a truly exceptional senior team and provide strategic leadership on HR, office management, site and contractor management and projects. If you are an ambitious and driven individual with a passion for high quality systems and processes, this is the job for you.
This is a varied and exciting role where your contribution will greatly impact the operational success of our school. You will lead our planned capital projects as well as offering integral operations expertise and support across the school. The role operates on a 52 weeks per year contract, with 25 days annual leave per annum.
What’s special about this role?
This newly created role falls within the school leadership team, providing day to day and strategic oversight and leadership for Operations. Key aspects of the role include, but are not limited to, HR, building operations, health and safety, capital projects, IT, community usage, catering and cleaning contract administration and operational support across the school.
Who are we looking for?
Across school life, we embed high aspirations and a growth mindset in all of our children. We believe that every single child who joins us has the potential to be knowledgeable, articulate and successful. It’s important this resonates with all candidates. Equally important is subject expertise and knowledge, transferable skills and experience.
Why will you love our school?
There are lots of reasons! We’re lucky to be based in a brand-new building with top class facilities. We serve a wonderfully diverse community - we are non-denominational, mixed gender and two fifths of our pupils receive pupil premium funding. We’re led by our values - Aim High, Have Integrity, Be Kind and Model Determination and our team truly unite behind our vision. Curriculum is incredibly important to us and we’ve planned backwards from university readiness to give our pupils the very best in every subject discipline. We timetable collaborative planning and love to engage in ‘productive struggle’. Every team member is supported with coaching and tailored professional development, whatever stage they are at in their career. Our extended school day (we finish at 4pm four days a week and earlier on Wednesday) allows us to offer a broad, rich curriculum and timetabled enrichment for every child - but we never have meetings after school. Our team say: ‘All staff are incredibly supportive and positive, and it is a great environment to work in’.
