Head of Estates (E6443) - Wellspring Academy Trust
Wellspring supports a vibrant, successful and inclusive community of Academies. We are in the process of building five new Special Free Schools by 2025 and are re-building and expanding three of our existing settings.
The role of the Head of Estates is designed to provide support and assurance to the Academies within our community. Reporting to the Director of Operations, the Head of Estates will lead and manage the Estates function ensuring safety and sustainability are at the core of what we do.
As a key part of the Operations Team, the Head of Estates will embed a consistent approach, streamlining processes and creating a unified culture across all academies while contributing to whole-Trust agendas.
The focus of this role will be to work in close partnership with members of the Trust Operations Team, Academy Leaders, and our regional support colleagues to deliver a range of operational and strategic initiatives. Effective communications and relationships will be at the heart of this role.
We are seeking an experienced leader who can support and influence colleagues, lead change, and achieve results. Their approach will be engaging, persuasive, considerate, and agile, ensuring transformational change and strategic alignment.
The ability to analyse, refine, and communicate information to senior leaders is crucial, along with the ability to form and nurture relationships internally and externally.
This role requires a results-focused and collaborative systems thinker with a track record of successfully delivering substantial projects and experience across various operational areas, aligned with the Trust’s ethos, values, and objectives.
Wellspring Academy Trust has a statutory and moral duty towards safeguarding the welfare of children and vulnerable adults and expects all staff to share this commitment. An Enhanced DBS is required for this post.
