Job overview

We are at a very exciting time in our journey as we continue to grow in both size and stature within the local and wider London educational landscape.  

We opened to students aged 14-19 in Brixton in September 2016 as a brand new school, and benefit from incredible specialist facilities that are the envy of many colleges and universities let alone schools.  Close to central Brixton, we benefit from being in a vibrant, dynamic, rewarding and inspiring place to work, and enjoy excellent transport links. As we move forward and evolve as a specialist provision, we are currently consulting on becoming a 6thForm only Academy from September 2023 and are looking to incorporate a new Finance specialism into our curriculum. 

Our vision is to develop young professionals with the skills and knowledge for successful careers in the engineering and health industries.  We do this through a highly specialised curriculum and offer GCSE, BTEC and A-level provision.  Our curriculum is supported via our core values of INNOVATION, INTEGRITY and INTENT; these help guide students and staff alike towards excellence. 

Supporting our vision and values is our mission to maximise achievement through innovative teaching and learning and high quality partnerships with London South Bank University and our Industry partners including: Skanska; Essentia; Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS trust; and King’s College NHS trust.  We are proud that our students benefit directly from real-life employer challenge projects, delivered alongside our sponsors and designed to develop authentic, contextualised learning. As a result, our students are motivated and highly engaged by the offer of a professional, mature learning environment.  

Your role will be to play a key role in the running of the UTC by managing a customer focussed administrative service through the leadership and provision of high quality professional provision.  You will support the Principal and senior leaders closely by providing a high quality professional administrative function. You will also have the opportunity to lead on HR for the academy, working closely with central Trust staff in providing operational support for the HR function.

The school’s curriculum is created with industry partners including London South Bank University, Skanska, Guys and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust and Kings College NHS Foundation Trust to ensure students get real world experience and skills to prepare them for future employment. The UTC offers entry into Year 10 and Year 12 for those with a passion for engineering or health and the drive to receive a specialist education alongside traditional GCSEs, A-levels or BTECs. 

Specialist Curriculum

South Bank UTC is STEM focused, and its specialisms are design with sponsors to ensure everything they do gives students the best career opportunities. They focus on areas of growth and excel in teaching the skills needs to thrive in jobs, higher education and apprenticeships. 

Engineering is about more than just building things: it is creative, practical and aims to make the world a better place for future generations. The engineering curriculum has been designed to ensure students are ready for the future. Alongside traditional GCSEs or A-Levels, students are given a unique opportunity to excel with hands on practical engineering skills. South Bank UTC facilitates the development of personal skills as well as academic and technical knowledge, with projects and trips designed to ensure our students are highly employable.

Healthcare is bigger than you think. There are 350 different NHS careers, ranging from Doctors, Nurses and Midwives to Physios, Educators, Engineers and Technicians, not to mention the many other jobs in the wider health and health tech sectors.
