Role Title: Clerk to local governing board
Salary: Grade 6
Hours: Part-Time
Contract: Permanent
Closing date: 16 October at midday
Interview date: 28 October
Start date: ASAP
The Diocese of Gloucester Academies Trust seek to appoint a Clerk to Local Governing Board.
We are looking to appoint people who are looking for a flexible professional opportunity with high-quality training and support to join our team. Whilst clerking or governance experience isn’t essential, excellent interpersonal and organisational skills with a commitment to learning and an ability to work on your own initiative whilst establishing yourself as an integral member of a team are key qualities we are looking for. Successful candidates will be allocated a local governing board to support but may also be asked to clerk ad-hoc meetings for other local governing boards when a need arises.
The role is flexible and some non-term time working may be required. The successful candidate will be required to work from home, although there will be a need to attend meetings in school and at the Trust office based at Hardwicke Parochial Primary Academy on occasion. The option to attend meetings remotely will also be available.
This role offers an exciting opportunity to influence and develop local governance practice within the academy sector. A high-quality induction programme is available, and you will report directly to, and be supported by the Trust’s Governance and HR Officer.
The post is offered as a salary of Grade 6 on a permanent basis.
This is a part-time post for 8 hours per meeting. Any additional meetings e.g. panel meetings are paid on a claim basis with your line manager agreement. Attendance at the Trust’s three Clerks’ Forum meetings is required and will be paid. Three x one hour line management meetings plus performance management meetings are also provided and this time is paid.
If you would like an informal conversation about the role, please contact Vicki Cowan on 07979833086 or email vcowan@cen.dgat.org.uk
The Diocese of Gloucester Academies Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS check is required for the successful candidate. All posts are subject to satisfactory references.
