This is a varied and evolving position, with scope to contribute across multiple areas including safeguarding, inclusion, pastoral support and wider school operations. The exact areas of focus will be shaped in discussion with the successful candidate, allowing the role to develop in line with both school priorities and individual strengths.

The post will also play an important role in strengthening capacity across the school, enabling leaders to focus on strategic development and operational leadership. We are looking for a professional, discreet and resilient individual with excellent organisational skills, strong attention to detail, and the ability to build effective working relationships at all levels. The ideal candidate will be confident working in a fast‑paced environment, able to manage competing priorities, and committed to supporting a positive and inclusive school culture.
