What will you get in return?

This is a fantastic opportunity to work as part of a collaborative trust-wide senior leadership team under the direction and with the support of the Executive Headteacher, Executive Director of Education, and CEO of Together Learning Trust.

You will be based at one of our vibrant secondary schools where you will work closely with the Senior Leadership Teams across the Trust to promote the school’s values and develop the school’s vision.

The Trust is at an exciting point in its planned journey, and as Associate Director of English, you will help shape our growth for the future. The central team works collaboratively with Heads of School, Headteachers, Senior Leadership Teams, and other staff within our schools, making you a key part of shaping the framework that will deliver the best education and outcomes for all students.

Are you ready to be an ambassador for our Trust?

What the role involves in a nutshell:

1. You will join a team of school improvement leaders, including our CEO, Executive Headteacher, and Executive Director of Education. As part of a team of Directors and Associate Directors, you will drive school improvement and secure outstanding outcomes and opportunities for all our students.
2. Embrace and ‘live’ the vision and values of the trust.
3. Lead from the front, demonstrating a strong work ethic and the tenacity to get things done.
4. Inspire confidence from stakeholders and the executive trust leaders.
5. Be bold and creative, seeking out new opportunities.
6. Demonstrate the highest expectations of your own performance and, in turn, inspire others to be their best.

If our school sounds like a place where you could really make a difference, then we’d love to hear from you.
