We are seeking to appoint a Regional Clerk to provide clerking support to the Local Governing Board that serves two of our Middlesbrough schools - Caldicotes Primary Academy and North Ormesby Primary Academy.  This is an exciting opportunity to be an integral part of our close-knit School Support Services team. As travel to the academies is required, this role would be ideal for someone based in Middlesbrough or the surrounding areas.

Each AET Governing Board must be supported by the clerk in regards to the following:

• Providing effective administrative support to the governing board
• Ensuring the governing board is properly constituted
• Managing information effectively in accordance with legal requirements

It is essential that the clerk has a good understanding of the AET model of governance as explained on the governance section of the AET website. Additionally, the clerk should complete the 20 minute governance overview module and certification.

Within this clerking position, you will cover one joint Local Governing Board for 2 academies and also have time for annual training and clerks' briefings.  This is a part-time role, amounting to a between 8-10 days per year, term-time, but candidates need to be available flexibly for a small number of additional days as required to cover clerking panels for exclusions, disciplinaries etc.

The role and salary will also include the need to travel to both academies in Middlesbrough to attend the schools in order to carry out the clerking duties and travel costs are included as part of the daily rate.  Some of the administration for the role may be carried out by remote working.
