Data Analyst, MIS & Systems Manager

Thank you for your interest in applying for the role of Data Analyst, MIS & Systems Manager at Co-op Academy Belle Vue. We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Data Analyst to join our team at the Academy. This is an exciting opportunity for an individual who is passionate about utilising data to drive strategic decision making.

Co-op Academy Belle Vue opened in September 2021 as the newest secondary school in the Co-op Academies Trust, and is built upon the shared values and ‘ways of being’ that underpin all Co-op Academies ; Be yourself, always - Do what matters most - Show you care - and Succeed together.

Co-op Academy Belle Vue offers something a little different from other schools, whether that be the structure of the day, our investment in technology, or our diverse and exciting ‘electives programme’. 

When we opened our doors to our first cohort of staff and students, we welcomed a new generation of Co-op pioneers, and together we have built something really special. Although the academy started its life in brand new, custom-built accommodation on the site of Co-op Connell College, we have now moved into our new state of the art academy building on Hyde Road. 

Our new building represents not just bricks and mortar, but an investment in the future of our students and community. We are excited to offer our students access to the latest resources and technology, and to provide them with an inspiring and dynamic learning environment. As we join our new community we will continue to empower our students to think creatively, to collaborate, and to achieve their full potential. We will strive to foster a culture of excellence and inclusivity, where every student feels safe, valued and supported

In our first two years, our cohorts are small, admitting 120 students into years 7 and 8. September 2023 will see 240 new Year 7’s join us, and with 517 applications, it is clear that we are an academy of choice in the East Manchester area. 

Cooperation, community, ambition, achievement, respect, responsibility, endeavour, and enjoyment are all key elements in the role of leading personal development at Co-op Academy Belle Vue. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work closely with the Academy's sponsor, The Co-op Group, and to be part of a supportive network of talented colleagues within the Co-op Academies Trust.

At Co-op Academy Belle Vue, we are committed to creating something special, a culture of high expectations with the ways of being and our CARE principles at the heart of everything we do. Our goal is to provide an exceptional educational experience for our students and to foster a community where everyone feels valued and supported. To achieve this, we are looking for an expert in this field, someone who will lead and model excellence consistently. As a leader, you will be dedicated to creating an environment where students feel inspired to learn, where teachers feel supported to teach, and where everyone feels invested in the success of the school.

The Data Analyst will be working closely with our senior leadership team to provide a forensic overview of our data and insights that will support the strategic direction of the academy. The successful candidate will be responsible for collecting, analysing, and interpreting large datasets to support our decision-making process.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in data analysis, including experience with statistical methods and data visualisation. They should also have excellent communication skills and the ability to present complex data insights in a clear and concise manner.

We are looking for someone who is eager to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, comfortable working with multiple stakeholders, a strong attention to detail, a passion for data, and a commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of the students we educate at Co-op Academy Belle Vue. Exceptional teamwork, high standards and a capacity for hard work will be at the core of your success. You will be a creative thinker with an ability and determination to develop Co-op Academy Belle Vue as a beacon of excellence in all areas, in order to secure high quality outcomes for all pupils.

As part of the Co-op Academies Trust, we value cooperation, community, ambition, achievement, responsibility, respect, and enjoyment in all our endeavours. The successful candidate will have recent experience and evidence of substantial impact on the improvement of a school or academy in areas relevant to this role.
