    The role

    We are seeking to appoint an experienced and highly organised Operations Manager with fantastic attention to detail to join our school in September 2025 on a full time, permanent basis. This is an exciting opportunity which will report into the principal.  You will join a truly exceptional senior team and provide strategic leadership on HR, office management, site and contractor management and projects. If you are an ambitious and driven individual with a passion for high quality systems and processes, this is the job for you. 

    This is a varied and exciting role where your contribution will greatly impact the operational success of our school. You will lead our planned capital projects as well as offering integral operations expertise and support across the school.

Key aspects of the role include, but are not limited to, HR, building operations, health and safety, capital projects, IT, community usage, catering and cleaning contract administration and operational support across the school.

    Who are we looking for?

    Across school life, we embed high aspirations and a growth mindset in all of our children. We believe that every single child who joins us has the potential to be knowledgeable, articulate and successful. It’s important this resonates with all candidates. Equally important is subject expertise and knowledge, transferable skills and experience.
