Join a Trust that’s making a real difference. At Bradford Diocesan Academies Trust (BDAT), we are all about delivering exceptional education and ensuring every child thrives—and behind that success is a high-performing operations function. We’re now looking for a driven, detail-focused Operations Officer to play a vital role at the heart of our central team, supporting 21 diverse schools across Bradford. This is a unique opportunity to combine finance, estates, compliance and operational excellence in a role where your work will directly enable schools to run efficiently, safely and effectively. If you’re motivated by purpose, thrive in a fast-paced multi-site environment, and want to be part of a collaborative, values-led Trust, we’d love to hear from you.

 Hours of work are flexible to meet the needs of the Trust but will not routinely exceed 37 hours per week. Occasional evening work is expected, and this role is predominantly office based.
