The posting

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, confident and organised individual to be our Local Governance Officer for Teignmouth Community School. Supporting the Local Governing Body (LGB), the role will be mostly home-based, and many duties can be undertaken flexibly to meet deadlines. The LGB meetings (five per academic year) are held in the late afternoon/early evening and travel to the school site in Teignmouth will be required for these, together with a termly team meeting at our central team office and any additional training events/requirements. LGB meetings are scheduled in advance, with reasonable notice provided and hours will be flexibly used across the academic year to accommodate quieter and busier periods, eg leading up to a meeting.

Training will be given in addition to support from the Trust Governance Officer and access to the professional governance support subscriptions held by the Trust.

Why join us?

  • Advise and guide on governance procedures and statutory requirements, helping the LGB operate within the Trust’s framework and legal obligations.
  • Manage governance information and records, ensuring accuracy, confidentiality, and compliance with relevant regulations.
