About this Role

Thank you for your interest in the role of Clerk to Academy Standards Committee.


Waterton Academy Trust, a trust of 16 primary phase schools in the Wakefield and Barnsley areas, is looking to add to its team of professional Clerks to support governance of the Trust and its academies. The Trust has enjoyed much positive press recently, regarding school improvement in challenging schools and is widely acknowledged as a desirable employer. We are in an exciting time as our central team is growing, and we are seeking new Clerks to join this friendly and welcoming team.

 

Our team of Clerks work successfully with a supportive Head of Governance and Governance team, as well as academy leaders and Governors. This is a fantastic opportunity to develop governance, administration and communication skills in a forward-thinking Trust. With the exception of attendance at meetings, all work can be completed flexibly at home; the successful applicants will therefore need to be self- motivated and have a pro-active approach to their workload. 

 

A robust training programme will be provided for successful applicants, and support will be delivered from the central Trust team thus no previous governance experience is required though strong experience in the administrative field is essential, and minute taking experience is desirable.  The Trust will also work with applicants to identify suitable schools based on location and timings to ensure best outcomes.  


We look forward to receiving your application.


Warm Regards,


Laura Clark

Head of Governance and Company Secretary
