Assistant Director
4 months ago
Harris Federation is looking to appoint a new Primary Education Assistant Director starting in January or Easter 2025. Reporting to the Primary Director, you will be one of four primary Assistant Directors with oversight for a cluster of primary academies across London.
As an Assistant Director, you will lead school improvement across a cluster of academies, working closely with the Principals, other academy leadership as well as central services and governors to ensure a culture of strong support and challenge. The Assistant Director plays a strategic role in working alongside the Primary Director and the CEO to drive the ongoing strategic vision and development of the Federation as a whole, to ensure that we maintain our standard as the one of the most successful large MATs in the country.
We are interested to hear from inspirational leaders who can provide the leadership, management support and challenge which promotes the highest standards of achievement and enables the Federation to give every pupil high quality education.
This post would suit an experienced executive leader who is currently overseeing a small to large group of schools within a Multi Academy Trust, or potentially, a highly experienced school leader who is working across multiple sites as a Principal/Headteacher.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious leader to join and work within a supportive, rewarding and highly successful MAT, where you will benefit from working with a network of leaders with knowledge, experience and coaching.
Conversations with our Primary Director, Sabeena Hasan, are encouraged ahead of the interview date. To arrange a conversation, please apply for the position to register your details and we will make contact with you to make arrangements.
WORKING WITH USThe founder and sponsor of the Harris Federation, Lord Harris of Peckham, opened our first school in 1990. We have, over the past thirty years, implemented ideas and initiatives that have transformed the opportunities of pupils from working class and disadvantaged backgrounds. Harris academies are widely recognised as a force for social mobility. We are immensely proud of the role that our alumni are now beginning to play in the world and of what we believe our current generation of pupils will go on to achieve.
We now have over 50 schools educating more than 40,000 young people across London and Essex, and employ over 5,000 staff across our academies and head office. With the majority of our academies located in areas of high socioeconomic disadvantage, a high-quality education is key to the futures of the pupils we serve.
As a provider of employment and education, we value the diversity of our staff and students, and all our staff are equally valued and respected. We are committed to providing a fair, equitable and mutually supportive learning and working environment for our students and staff.
Our work will impact many generations to come, and our staff come from all backgrounds and walks of life, coming together to inspire young minds.
