Jobbeschreibung

About the role:

London South East Academies Trust is looking for an experienced Data Systems and Intelligence Manager to join our team and lead the development of data, reporting and management information across the Trust.

This is an important role for LSEAT. Good data underpins the decisions we make across our schools, whether that is understanding pupil performance, identifying where support is needed or giving leaders and governors a clear picture of how we are doing.

You will take the lead on our use of Arbor MIS, working closely with colleagues across our schools to make sure our data is accurate, consistent and being used effectively. You will also develop our reporting and business intelligence, using Power BI, SQL and the Microsoft Power Platform to make information easier to access and understand.

About the role

Working with colleagues across education, safeguarding, HR, finance and operations, you will:

• Lead the development of reporting and data analysis across the Trust
• Produce clear and useful dashboards and reports for school and Trust leaders
• Lead and develop our use of Arbor MIS
• Improve the quality and consistency of data across our schools
• Develop Power BI dashboards and automated reporting
• Support schools to make better use of their own data and reporting
• Help develop consistent KPIs and performance measures across the Trust
• Provide training and support to colleagues
• Identify opportunities to improve and automate existing processes
• Make sure data is managed securely and in line with GDPR and safeguarding requirements

About you

We are looking for someone who is technically strong but who can also make data understandable and useful.

You will have significant experience of working with data, management information or business intelligence, ideally within education. You should be confident working with Arbor or a similar school MIS, alongside Power BI and SQL, and comfortable handling and analysing complex datasets.

You will also need to be able to work with people at different levels across the organisation. You might be developing a detailed dashboard one day and helping a school colleague understand their data the next.

Experience of SharePoint, Power Automate, data warehousing or other automation and reporting tools would be useful, but just as important is a practical approach and the ability to spot where systems and processes could work better.

About Us

About the Trust

London South East Academies Trust is a growing and ambitious Multi-Academy Trust, currently comprising mainstream, special and alternative provision academies, alongside an outreach service and a music hub. Our schools are located across Bromley, Bexley, Sussex, Lambeth and Surrey, serving a wide range of communities and educational contexts.

Across the Trust, our schools share a strong commitment to raising attainment, encouraging aspiration and supporting social mobility for every pupil, throughout their educational journey and beyond. We take a holistic but personalised approach to education, recognising that children thrive when their individual strengths, needs and circumstances are properly understood and supported. This enables pupils to flourish and achieve their full potential, whatever their starting point.

We believe that great schools are built by great people. As a Trust, we invest in our staff through strong professional development and leadership opportunities, clear expectations and supportive structures. We actively encourage collaboration and the sharing of best practice across schools, supported by high-quality, cost-effective central services that allow leaders and teachers to focus on what matters most: improving outcomes for pupils.

This unique structure provides meaningful progression pathways for pupils and families, as well as broad development and career opportunities for staff across the wider Group.

Our teams are united by a shared belief in the power of education to change lives. By continuing to grow our Trust and welcoming new expertise and perspectives, we aim to strengthen our schools further and extend the positive impact we have on our communities.
