We have active & vibrant staff networks, special leave policies and workplace adjustments put in place for those who need them. We are continuing to build a diverse DfE, in an inclusive environment which nurtures and realises potential in all, at all levels.

Equality and Diversity - Department for Education

In Regions Group we aim to improve outcomes for children, families and learners by accelerating system improvement and reform through active intervention and by better aligning the Department’s operations and users’ needs at a local and regional level.

We will:

- Bring together improvement and intervention work in Children’s Social Care, SEND and Schools as well as area-based programs like Opportunity Areas and Education Investment Areas
- Maintain the stewardship of the school system and, working with the Future ESFA, provide a unified voice to academy trusts and to individual Local Authorities at a local level
- Set DfE up to deliver for and respond more effectively to local needs and to understand how local contexts impact on children and learners in a place, particularly vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young people.

Diversity and inclusion is our top priority and we embrace uniqueness. We strongly encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds and experiences. We are a welcoming and inclusive workplace where our people are able to bring their whole selves to work.

The team is led by Andrew Warren, Regional Director. We cover a diverse area of the country, supporting schools in 14 local authority areas across the West Midlands and we are proud to make a real difference to the education of pupils.

**Job description**:
You’ll spend the majority of your time on:
**Sub-regional delivery**:

- Managing an often complex caseload to ensure effective delivery of the ambitions of the Schools White Paper including: timely and effective intervention, the school and trust improvement offer, free schools programme, Education Investment Areas and the academies programme.
- Leading complex and challenging cases with sensitivity and integrity, and producing written reports with clear recommendations to senior officials and ministers.
- Being accessible to external stakeholders, providing support and challenge in a timely and considered way. This includes having a good understanding of the tools, support and guidance offered through the School Resource Management programme and how to help schools / trusts identify the best tools for their context.
- Proactively assessing and managing high risk or complex cases, tackling risks and issues at an early stage, and providing advice and briefing to senior managers where required.
- Leading as the first point of contact the relationships with key stakeholders in the education sector, including multi-academy trusts, local authorities and maintained schools.
- Maintaining accurate and timely records and management information to support effective governance and delivery.

Depending on delivery priorities, you could also spend some of your time on:
**Work across your region and/or with other regions**:

- Co-ordinating the effective delivery of work that cuts across regions and / or has national significance, e.g. contributing to a national portfolio work stream or Schools White Paper implementation, liaising with policy teams and central teams where relevant.

This could include leading on briefing and advice on your work area to colleagues across the region or in other regions, monitoring progress and providing suggestions for continuous improvement.

Depending on delivery priorities, you could also spend some of your time on:

- Task management of a small team, supporting, monitoring and delegating tasks where appropriate
- Supporting the delivery of the Priority Education Investment Areas within West Midlands
- Supporting the creation, maintaining and monitoring the West Midlands strategic plan
- Supporting the effective delivery of work that cuts across regions and / or has national significance, e.g. contributing to a national portfolio work stream or Schools White Paper implementation, including high profile cases or cross-regional risks.
