You will ensure the accuracy, consistency, and accessibility of data for all schools, with a focus on Beacon Academy. By working closely with school leaders, the Trust Data Manager, and regional teams, you will streamline data processes and provide insights for decision-making. Together, we will foster an environment of informed decisions and data-driven strategies, ultimately making a significant impact on the educational experiences and outcomes of the pupils we serve.
This is a hybrid and flexible role with responsibility for both Beacon Academy and the support of data management across the entire Trust. The position offers a unique opportunity to manage and optimise data systems at both a school level whilst developing Trust-wide experience. It may suit an existing school Data Manager who is looking to broaden their expertise and contribute to shaping data strategy at a larger scale within a multi-academy trust.
The role is primarily based centrally within the Trust, with an average of one day per week on-site at Beacon Academy (DN35 9NF). The remaining days will be spent working centrally in Barnsley, remotely supporting Beacon Academy, assisting the Trust Data Manager, and providing support to other schools across the trust as required. If you are proactive, solution-focused, and eager to work in a flexible, hybrid environment while making a meaningful impact across the Trust, we would love to hear from you.
