We are welcoming applications from colleagues with experience of working in administration or those with the aptitude and aspiration to be successful in this role. This post focuses on serving our community members with excellent organisation, efficiency, and a smile.

families deserve to be served by excellent staff who enjoy working in a dedicated team. We believe that
our small Trust has the best combination of a family feel whilst still offering progression opportunities
across a number of schools.


The workload and wellbeing programme is in its infancy. For the successful candidates, we currently
offer free wraparound care for employee children and grandchildren in our schools and are due to
implement wellbeing weeks during 2026. Our refurbishment programme is underway which will lead to
inspiring environments for all staff and children. We are looking forward to meeting dedicated colleagues who will benefit from our School and Trust offers.
