The Learning Academy Partnership has an exciting opportunity for an Operational Estates Lead to join our exceptional, friendly, and professional centralised Business Support Team. We are at an exciting time in our development as a growing School Trust, and this role will bring with it a real sense of personal fulfilment, knowing what you do has a direct impact on the lives of our children.

This is a brand-new role where you will be part of an evolving & collaborative team ensuring we develop and improve the provision, resources, and premises for all our children in our Cornwall and West Devon Schools. We are looking for someone who can provide high quality leadership and operational management of the Trust’s Estates functions, including identifying maintenance and compliance activities, the procurement of services and contracts, and supporting with Health and Safety matters across the Trust. The role is crucial in allowing our schools to provide the very best educational offer and ensure that services to our children remain consistent, high quality and compliant.

This is a role where you will have a profound impact on the future of our children. Our colleagues are crucial and without them, our children will not experience an excellent curriculum or thrive in environments where they are cared for, inspired, and challenged. If you are someone who feels inspired by our mission and values and wants to be part of a Trust where everything begins and ends with children, this could be the role for you

We are proud that we are a single organisation where professional development and growth is supported and celebrated. We invest in our colleagues and want you to feel professionally nourished, and this role will bring with it real opportunities to develop your skills and grow within the organisation. We are on a journey to become the ‘BEST employer’; we want to continue to embed a culture where **all** colleagues feel valued and a real sense of belonging, so they can flourish in their roles and, in short, be the best they can be. We are proud that our wellbeing strategy enables us to nurture, develop and support our colleagues so that they can provide the very best for our children.

We do this through working very closely together in mutual support and challenge to empower excellence for our children, families, and the communities that we serve.

In short, our ethos is one of working together to **Empower, Excel, Together**.
