We are seeking a Cluster IT Manager to be responsible for delivering, maintaining, and supporting technology across the four Midlands Cluster schools and Central Support Services. Managing the staff within the ICT team, including their activity, performance, and development. Ensuring that technology is effective in supporting the raising of educational standards across the Trust.

This is a leadership role in which you would report directly to the Executive Business Manager; it is a fantastic opportunity for you to shape and support the successful futures of our four new academies within the Midlands Secondary Cluster: George Eliot Academy, Hartshill Academy, Heath Lane Academy and Nuneaton Academy.

The four schools are coming together to be four academies as part of United Learning at the end of 2023 to form the ‘Midlands Secondary Cluster’. We look to ‘cluster’ academies to share resources and expertise and to give staff local opportunities to develop further. Whilst there is commitment to nurturing the unique ethos of each school, our common mission in bringing out the ‘Best in Everyone’ shines through. We aim to offer more to both colleagues and young people than any single school could offer alone.

Strong relationship building and providing outstanding customer service to all stakeholders will be vital for this role. We require a strong and capable leader and manager equipped to provide the level of support and challenge needed for our schools.

Benefits include: package includes an attractive salary, membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and access to exciting employee benefits. We are open to requests for flexible working and we encourage open and regular conversations about work-life balance.
