Careers Advisor

38 weeks term time only

24 hours per week (flexible) - working hours/days are negotiable 

We are looking to recruit a motivated and enthusiastic Level 6 qualified Careers Adviser to join the school staff. Having outsourced careers advice for a number of years we are now keen to employ someone who will become an established member of the school community and who knows the students and staff well.  

We want to employ a Careers Adviser who will deliver one to one and group sessions to students, offer advice and guidance and support them to make appropriate yet ambitious career decisions. We want our students to see the Careers Adviser as someone they can go to for advice and support whenever they need it and who will assist them with college, sixth form and apprenticeship applications.  

Our Careers Adviser will work under the guidance of an Assistant Headteacher and have access to a dedicated careers space. We are keen for the successful post-holder to establish our new Careers Area as part of the school’s central library hub and this post comes with the opportunity to grow into being the school’s Careers Leader in the future.

The only essential requirement is to be qualified to Level 6 in Careers Guidance. Aside from that we want someone who can connect with young people and who wants to be part of the team at school who provide support and guidance to enable our students to go on and lead a successful and fulfilling life.

Slough and Eton is a great school on the outskirts of Slough, which serves the Chalvey community. We are relentlessly focused on ensuring great teaching, learning and experiences are at the core of what we do. It is an exciting time for us and our students are a pleasure to work with.
