This is a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiastic, driven professional to join an outstanding post 16 college.

Working as part of The GORSE Academies Trust, Elliott Hudson College has a mission to ensure that its students receive an exceptional education.  We are looking for professionals who want to work in a college that focuses on high expectations, challenge and rigour but aligned closely with personal responsibility and pastoral care. Together these values will instill in young people a self-belief that enables them to access the highest standard of higher educational provision and employment.

Through this approach Elliott Hudson College is becoming a catalyst for social change, transforming opportunities for the young people in the communities it serves. We are determined through the establishment of this college, to ensure that poverty and deprivation should in no way limit either the quality of a young person’s educational experience or the levels of achievement to which those students are able to rise.

We are seeking to appoint a Communications and Marketing Officer, a new yet crucial role within the college, to work with the Gorse Academies Trust Head of Communications. The role will involve cultivating and strengthening relationships with stakeholders across the city region and beyond through effective communications, printed materials, events and personal contact.

This position does present the successful candidate with a fantastic career opportunity in a thriving and growing organisation. Applications are welcomed from people who have worked in project management and multi-channel communications, especially digital marketing.

You will be required to work on a flexible basis, which will include some evening, weekend and school holiday work.

You will be based within Elliott Hudson College.

This is an exciting opportunity for candidates who are keen to be at the centre of our organisational change. The last few years have been exceptional for The GORSE Academies Trust and we are incredibly proud that Elliott Hudson College has been judged as ‘outstanding’ in all areas, by Ofsted in March 2018.

Elliott Hudson College is a 16-19, co-educational college which opened in 2015 and now has a student population of 1080 Year 12 and 13 ‘A’ Level students. The college is housed in brand new, state-of-the-art accommodation at The White Rose Office Park, Millshaw Park Lane, Leeds, LS11 0LT.
