Job overview

The Brian Clarke CE Academy is looking to appoint a Library Manager to be part of the staff team of our new 11-16 Church of England comprehensive school.

The school opened with a founding team of staff in September 2022 to 240 young people and will continue to grow annually to a pupil body of 1200.

The post of Library Manager at a new school is a wonderful opportunity to shape the library and learning service provision, engendering a love of reading in all students and being part of a talented and committed staff that is growing a school from Year 7 up; supporting the development of its ethos and embedding that in the community of the school and having the benefit of a brand new building with all new facilities and supported by a local, successful and experienced Trust.

In brief we are looking for:

·        An experienced librarian committed to ambition, excellence and community who will work with students and colleagues to drive the growth and development of The Brian Clarke CE Academy to become an outstanding provider for young people and a school where staff, who are committed and ambitious for young people, take pride in and enjoy their work.

·        An inspirational role model with a clear understanding of what makes outstanding educational provision for all and the ability, understanding and experience to apply this to the library and learning service

·        Someone who will go the extra mile for students, not because they are asked to but because they want to; someone who will do their utmost to ensure that all of our students progress to the future destinations of their choice.

·        Someone who will inspire students and the staff they work with and build strong relationships with our parents, carers and community partners.

We are recruiting to our team of exceptional staff to achieve our vision and work together to create a genuinely outstanding school. As Library Manager you will help to shape the totality of the Brian Clarke experience for our young people.

Working for The Brian Clarke CE Academy means that you would be part of the Cranmer Education Trust, a successful, growing Trust which prides itself on looking after its people, offering a high level of support and access to expertise. This is an excellent time to join the team as we develop collaborative structures and systems to enhance and support our growing family of schools.

Alongside The Brian Clarke CE Academy, the Trust is made up of The Blue Coat School, St Anne’s Academy in Middleton and two primary schools - East Crompton St George’s and Mayfield Primary. The Trust also incorporates a teacher training school and the East Manchester Teaching Hub; both of which support the training and development of new and existing teachers across the North West of England. For further details please visit https://careers.cranmereducationtrust.com/

This position will be based at The Brian Clarke Academy, Oldham, but may from time to time require travel as necessary to collaborate with other schools which are all locally based. 

The Cranmer Education Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The Cranmer Education Trust follows safer recruitment practices. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975,2013 and 2020 and appointment is therefore subject to a satisfactory enhanced disclosure from the Disclosure & Barring Service.
