• Experience
  in procurement, facilities management, or operational administration.

Not a "Perfect Match" on Paper? No
Problem!

We believe that great talent comes in many forms. So,
you don’t meet all the criteria? No problem. Just tell us what you do meet!
If you have experience in some areas but not others—perhaps you’re a wizard at
facilities but new to school-specific H&S, or you’re a great team leader
from a different sector—we want to hear from you.

When applying, please:

1.
Give us some examples of the skills you do bring to the
table.

2.
Tell us how you envisage yourself growing into the role and which
areas you are excited to develop.

We’re not expecting you to tick every single box. If you think you’ve
got what it takes to help our school succeed, let us know. We’d be pleased to
hear from you.
