• Values-Driven Leadership: A strong alignment with the Catholic mission and the ability to motivate teams across different school settings.

• Organisational Excellence: Experience managing minor works, maintenance contracts, and risk registers.

Why Join the Central Team?

• Professional Growth: Access to tailored CPD and senior leadership forums.

• Impact: Play a vital role in the formation of a newly established Multi-Academy Trust.

• Collaborative Culture: Work within a supportive environment committed to the professional growth of all staff.
