Job overview
About E-ACT
E-ACT multi-academy trust is responsible for 26 academies across the length and breadth of England. Our academies can collaborate and share ideas with one another in ways that schools may not be able to. Most importantly, we all feel part of something much bigger as our responsibilities go far beyond the four walls of a single academy, and extend to people and their communities across the country.
About the role & our ideal candidate
E-ACT’s governance remit is considerable. Five regional hubs have educational and operational responsibility for the academies in their area, and every one of our 26 academies is also supported by an Ambassadorial Advisory Group. You will be supporting the Governance Manager to ensure the smooth running of the administration of E-ACT’s governance structure.This is an exciting opportunity, and you must have the ability to work in a fast moving environment to high levels of accuracy. Whilst experience in the education sector is desirable, this isn’t essential. We are more interested in a candidate with strong communication skills, both written and verbal, an eye for detail and a positive, can-do attitude.
Why work for us?
This is an exciting time to join an ambitious team and organisation. We offer the chance to work with amazing people and inspirational pupils, as well as sector-leading work-life balance arrangements, a professional training and development programme and a generous holiday entitlement.
How to apply
If you have any questions about the role, please contact Heather Rowe at HR.Team@E-ACT.org.uk. All enquiries will be dealt with in confidence.
Your application should outline how you meet the qualification and experience elements of the person specification.
Interviews are scheduled for Tuesday 7 August 2018.
E-ACT is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and vulnerable adults, and all appointments are subject to enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) checks and satisfactory references. E-ACT is also committed to promoting equality, challenging discrimination and developing community cohesion. We welcome applications from all sections of the community.

E-ACT is a leading Academy sponsor and social enterprise, specialising in the development of world class Academies and schools in the UK.
Our mission is straightforward. It is to become the leading education provider developing and nurturing highly successful Academies and schools.
We believe the better educated and more highly-skilled people are, the better their life chances and the more likely they are to succeed in today’s globalised world.
To achieve this, E-ACT Academies quickly become centres of excellence for improving young people’s life chances and opportunities.
Academies in England are helping transform and improve secondary education and opportunities for thousands of young people.
As a multi-Academy sponsor, E-ACT is working with individual schools, local authorities and the Government to set up high quality all-ability schools. Our Academies are governed by experienced and successful people and organisations drawn from the communities served by each Academy.
We work closely with private and public sector partners, universities and further education colleges to raise educational standards and young people’s aspirations through innovative approaches to teaching and learning.
As a social enterprise we combine the efficiency and effectiveness of a business trading for social purposes.
Diversity, tolerance and equality are at the heart of every activity in E-ACT Academies, where young people of all races, faiths and cultures learn together.
E-ACT Academies are also vibrant centres for their communities, available all year round outside of traditional school hours for sport, health and recreational activities. They are also a focus for family-related activities and provide lifelong learning opportunities for local people of all ages.
