Swindon, Swindon, United Kingdom The White Horse Federation Full time

About the Role:

The White Horse Federation is seeking an enthusiastic and personable Clerk to join our Clerking Team in supporting the Local Governance Committees (LGCs) of schools across the local area within The White Horse Federation.

This is an exciting opportunity for an individual who is seeking both the flexibility of part-time hours within term time, combined with the challenge that comes with working in the ever-changing world of education.

As a Clerk at The White Horse Federation, you will cover the organisation and management of Local Governance Committee meetings, which take place at least four times per year and last approximately two hours. In addition, you will be responsible for drafting agendas, producing accurate and concise minutes of meetings, maintaining information on membership and advising the committee on procedural matters where appropriate.

There may be optional opportunities to cover ad-hoc clerking duties for additional school meetings or other schools within the Trust.

About You:

We are looking for a Clerk who:

  • Has previous experience of minuting meetings.
  • Has good administration skills and is competent in the use of Microsoft Office, Teams, and ideally also Governor Hub.
  • Is flexible and able to prioritise and multi-task effectively.
  • Is highly organised and confidential, with good communication skills.
  • Preferably, has knowledge of governance in a school context, although training will be provided.

We are also interested in hearing from candidates who have experience of Governors Disciplinary Committee Meetings, although this is not a requirement.

Why Work for Us?

We think you will love working with us at The White Horse Federation, and here are some of the reasons why:

  • We offer full training and further development opportunities, with ongoing support available via our Central team.
  • We can provide opportunities for networking with other Clerks across the Trust.
  • We have a hardworking team of staff and supportive schools, dedicated to helping students succeed.
  • We have a supportive leadership team and wider school community.
  • We all benefit from the support, encouragement, shared resources and outstanding CPD opportunities that come from being part of a Multi-Academy Trust.

Benefits:

We believe in valuing our staff and one of the ways we can do that is by offering a range of benefits to our staff including:

  • Generous pension scheme
  • Competitive rates of pay
  • Car purchase scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Employee Assistance Programme
