We are now recruiting for the role of Head of College (Vice Principal) for Snowfields Academy at our Minster Campus, opening in September 2025. Our Minster Campus, inspired by our existing campuses, will provide students with state-of-the-art facilities designed to provide an exceptional learning environment for our young people. This is a truly fantastic leadership opportunity within a very successful and financially sound, mature and geographically local multi-academy trust that combines management freedom for effective leaders with secure central support that encourages collaboration for success.
Our successful candidate will be a talented and highly motivated leader with drive and commitment to excellence as well as strong interpersonal skills, and the ability to communicate to a range of stakeholders. You will be joining a supportive, committed and passionate team who work hard to ensure that all of our students achieve their potential. We are looking for an experienced professional who can demonstrate strategic leadership and excellent management, and a proven track record of success in raising standards.
This is an exciting time to join our leadership team. You will be expected to play a key role in developing the strategic vision for Snowfields even further whilst ensuring that our students develop their potential, achieve academic success and develop our core values. The successful applicant will be a key member of the senior leadership team and will have significant autonomy in leading their assigned college, and will have management responsibilities for one or more faculty areas (this can be confirmed in due course depending on the successful candidate’s specialisms).
This post provides an outstanding career opportunity to be part of an Outstanding academy.
We wish to hear from you if you are committed to changing our education world and are:
1. an enthusiastic, energetic and ambitious leader with a successful track record at secondary level;
2. a motivational and inspirational leader with high expectations of staff;
3. confident and able to communicate a clear vision for the school;
4. able to develop children to reach their full potential regardless of background or circumstance;
5. approachable and keen to work with staff across the Trust to ensure wide success;
6. able to establish and develop excellent relationships with the community and other stakeholders.
