Job overview
The De Curci Trust is seeking a highly organised governance professional to provide administrative and clerking support to the Board and Executive Team. The successful candidate will join a thriving and supportive Trust and, as Company Secretary, play a key role in contributing to high standards of governance across the Trust’s schools.
Whilst experience of school governance/clerking would be desirable, we welcome applicants from other industries who may have suitable administrative/PA skills and experience. We believe in offering CPD opportunities for all colleagues, and relevant training would be available for the new postholder.
The role requires flexibility to meet the needs of the Board, including some evening meetings, whilst offering the opportunity for some home working. Exact working patterns and arrangements can be discussed at interview. Please see the job description for further information.
Prospective candidates are encouraged to contact the Trust for an informal discussion with the CEO or CFOO. Please contact Marie Grenfell, PA to Ms Spivey.

Ofsted
“Students, staff and parents and carers are very satisfied with the behaviour in this school and this extends to those students who attend off-site courses or other activities. Teaching across the school is typically good and there is some outstanding practice, especially in English, mathematics and humanities”.
