IT Network Engineer

We are looking for an IT Network Engineer to join our expanding Trust team at Altus Education Partnership. Based primarily at Rochdale Sixth Form College, you will be responsible for maintaining Trust-wide network infrastructure – monitor network performance, fix faults and make sure systems meet all technical and security standards. Please refer to the application pack for further information.

Altus Education Partnership was formed in 2017 from Rochdale Sixth Form College, an Ofsted Outstanding provider, and grew from our desire to improve education in the borough of Rochdale as a whole.

The Trust currently comprises four academies:

• Rochdale Sixth Form College (RSFC) opened in 2010 to address the significant underachievement in A Level performance in the borough. Since then, it has raised achievement in the area dramatically and is recognised nationally as a centre of excellence. The college is Ofsted Outstanding, Sixth Form College of the Year 2021, and regularly one of the highest performing colleges in the country according to the DfE’s performance tables and national achievement rate tables.
• Edgar Wood Academy is a secondary school opened in a new build in 2021 under Wave 13 of the free schools’ programme. The school has already established a strong reputation in the local community and is significantly over-subscribed for 2023-24.
• Kingsway Park High School is an Ofsted rated Good school with a strong track record of providing its students with an excellent education. The school will soon benefit from a new teaching block opening at the end of 2023.
• Bamford Academy is an Ofsted rated Good school providing a caring and nurturing environment for all of its pupils; it is a popular first choice for many parents and young people in the local community.
