The Academy is seeking to appoint well-qualified, flexible and proactive individuals to be part of a new team of Study Coordinators, with responsibilities across both the main school libraries and the Sixth Form Study Centre.

This role involves the daily management of these key study environments, promoting a strong study ethic and providing academic administrative support. Successful candidates will play an important role in ensuring these spaces are well-organised, well-resourced, and used effectively by students and staff. They may also take a lead in supporting Sixth Form students with university applications, mentoring academic progress, and contributing to pastoral care and attendance, while helping to cultivate a culture of independent learning and academic ambition across the wider school community.

The successful candidates should be educated to degree level and must be computer literate (experience with Microsoft Excel is essential), extremely well organised, confident and able to both manage groups of students and empathise with their needs across all year groups. This role could suit recent graduates looking to gain experience in a school setting, or those with prior experience of working in education or with young people. The successful applicants will be part of both the Sixth Form Management Team and the wider Library study centres, contributing to the smooth and effective running of all Academy study spaces that support students in Years 7 to 13. A genuine belief in the potential of our students to achieve their ambitions, alongside a willingness to support and motivate them, is essential. Training and support will be provided to help the appointee develop their skills within the role.

For an exceptional individual, the opportunity for an enhanced role that includes leadership responsibilities within the team may be available, offering the chance to contribute to the development and management of the library as lead for the more generic study space provision across the school.
