Vantage CE Academies Trust is looking to recruit a new Chair of Trustees to help steer the Trust through the next exciting stage in its journey, taking our Good and Outstanding schools to GREAT. Vantage is a dynamic and growing organisation with 510 staff serving over 3700 pupils in 10 schools.
We are a Northwest-based Trust, founded in 2012, currently made up of six Church of England schools and four community schools. Working across 5 Local Authorities, we provide excellent education within the primary and secondary sector. Our mission is to support and sustain a community of exceptional schools, that serve their communities well, to deliver an excellent education which enables children and young people to enjoy life in all its fullness.
The Trust believes in aspiration, togetherness and service. We are ambitious for our communities, seeking to overcome barriers and never accepting mediocrity. We are committed to a culture where everybody belongs. Our intent is to ensure every child who comes through the door has an amazing experience and leaves us with the skills, knowledge and resourcefulness to embark on the next stage in their learning journey.
The Trust is currently in an exciting period, we need a Chair of Trustees who:
- wants to make a difference
- can offer a strategic outlook
- has the ability to analyse complex information; and
- will offer challenge and support to the recently appointed CEO and Board via a bold, courageous and resilient mindset.
If you have the requisite experience for the role, and share our vison for schools to be at the heart of their local community, places of aspiration and opportunity, where everyone flourishes as a learner and global citizen; have a can do mindset and a no excuses mindset we’d love to hear from you.
To find out more and register your interest for the role, please contact our Director of People and Governance, david.norton@vantageacademies.co.uk
The closing date for application is 30/11/24 at 9.00am. However, the Trust reserves the right to close early and therefore encourages early applications.
Vantage CE Academies Trust is committed to the safeguarding of children and young people. An enhanced disclosure from the DBS will be required for all roles. All candidates will also be subject to an online search for information about you as part of our due diligence and commitment to safeguarding.
