About the role

As School Operations Manager at Lift Noel Park, you'll play a key role in keeping the school running smoothly, safely and efficiently.

You'll oversee a range of operational areas including finance, facilities, compliance, administration and health & safety. You'll be hands-on, visible and solution-focused, working closely with staff, contractors, families and the wider Trust.

No two days will be the same, and you'll be someone who enjoys solving problems and making things happen.

  • Ensure high standards of compliance, health & safety and data protection.
  • Support HR, recruitment, finance, procurement and staffing processes.
  • Manage lettings, communications and wider operational logistics.
  • Work closely with central and regional Trust teams.
  • Support the school's marketing, website and social media.
  • Identify ways to improve systems, processes and efficiency.

What we're looking for

You'll be organised, proactive and confident, with experience of working in a busy operational environment. This could be within a school, facilities, project management, hospitality, events or another operational leadership role.

Most importantly, you'll be:

  • A natural problem solver who takes initiative.
  • Calm and organised under pressure.
  • An excellent communicator and relationship builder.
  • Comfortable leading and supporting teams.
  • Able to manage competing priorities.
  • Committed to creating a safe, welcoming and positive environment for children and staff.

Simply put, you'll be the person who spots issues, finds solutions and gets things done.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
