- Warm, approachable, and able to remain calm under pressure.
- Organised and capable of planning targeted support programmes while maintaining accurate records.
- Emotionally literate, empathetic, supportive, and able to handle sensitive information with discretion.
- A visible and approachable Senior Leadership Team and a dedicated, supportive staff community.
- A strong professional support network within the school and across Ambitions Academies Trust.
- Access to high-quality, evidence-informed CPD tailored to individual development needs.
- Excellent opportunities for career progression.
- A culture that values work-life balance and staff wellbeing, supported by a dedicated Wellbeing Champion.
- An Employee Assistance Programme providing access to immediate support and confidential counselling services.
- Additional staff benefits, including free eye tests for DSE users through Specsavers and free will-writing services through Dunham McCarthy Solicitors.
- A competitive pension scheme through either Teachers' Pensions or the Local Government Pension Scheme.
Should you wish to arrange an informal discussion or visit, we would be delighted to hear from you.
