If your passion is for people, we want you to join us.
We're looking for a skilled Talent, Learning and EDI Specialist to join our team at Lift Schools. We are building a network of excellent schools across England.

Your skills and experience will help transform our culture.
We are in a rapidly changing world where we will need to support our young people and teams to embrace new ways of working, frontier technologies and broadening digital access.

The role will be instrumental in making an impact across the talent life cycle, from onboarding and induction onwards, so that we can become an employer of choice - somewhere where the best people strive to join and thrive when they're with us.

* have a significant interest in learning, talent management and organisation development
* are great at working collaboratively, diagnosing solutions, thinking creatively and delivering change
* are interested in the creative use of technology to make an impact
* believe that employees should be treated as adults, consumers and human beings - not numbers - this is about really thinking through how we support and engage our people
