Executive Principal

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Headteacher or Principal of a good or outstanding school who wants to take their next career step toward becoming a Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

We are seeing an experienced and inspiring leader, to take on the role of Executive Principal. You will play a critical role in continuing to build the Trust in its next phase of development - leading school improvement across the two secondary schools currently in the Trust. 

This model of Executive Leadership is proving to be successful in building leadership capacity within multi-academy trusts.  The Trust is morally driven and highly ambitious to make the right decisions in the interest of our students. We are determined not to progress the status quo with our current two Academies and would look to our Executive Principal to be instrumental in planning our future landscape.

With a relentless focus on ensuring that our students receive the very best experience in teaching and learning in every classroom, you will support each one of them to achieve the outcomes their potential predicts is possible.

Leading at an executive level to enhance the work of Principals in raising outcomes through improvements to the quality of teaching and learning, you will have the drive and determination to successfully collaborate in creating a culture of high expectations that raise standards. 

The role will enable you to further build the financial and business skills required to run a successful academy trust, as well as the interpersonal, negotiation and influencing skills needed to positively engage all Trust and academy stakeholders.
