Working closely with the Chair, trustees, local governors and senior leaders, this is a highly influential role within our Trust. You will ensure our governance is strong, thoughtful and effective - enabling good decisions, appropriate challenge and clear accountability. You will lead our approach to governance, compliance and risk, making sure that we meet our responsibilities while continually improving how we work.

You will be an experienced governance professional who combines sound judgement and technical expertise with warmth, pragmatism and excellent relationship skills, who has the confidence to be a trusted adviser across the wider Trust. You will be comfortable advising and challenging senior leaders and trustees, while understanding that excellent governance is ultimately about helping our schools make better decisions for children and young people. As the Trust continues to develop and grow, you will bring both the confidence to lead change and the judgement to know what should remain stable.
