- Strong troubleshooting skills and an enjoyment of solving puzzles – no two days are the same here!
- Someone who enjoys teamwork, can prioritize effectively, and can jump into new tasks with a positive attitude.
- Willingness to travel between school sites within the Trust, a driving licence and own transport is required.
Why You’ll Love Working with Us
- We offer plenty of room to grow and develop your skills, with ongoing training and opportunities for career progression.
- You’ll be part of a Trust that’s committed to using technology to empower learning and make a difference for students and staff.
