What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, dynamic and inspiring Careers Coordinator to join our Trust. We are determined in our mission to improve the life chances of our students and we are equally committed to the wellbeing and development of our staff.

The opportunity to join the Trust at a time of significant development in terms of careers education is an exciting one.
