IT Technician

Thank you for your interest in the role. If you are looking for an exciting, challenging and highly rewarding role that offers a strong commitment to professional development and well-being (as evidenced by our benefits below), we encourage you to apply.

This is a technical IT role in which you would report directly to the Cluster IT Manager; it is a fantastic opportunity for you to shape and support the successful futures of academy. We work with 3 other schools to form the Midlands Secondary Cluster: Hartshill Academy, Heath Lane Academy and Nuneaton Academy.

We look to ‘cluster’ academies to share resources and expertise and to give staff local opportunities to develop further. Whilst there is commitment to nurturing the unique ethos of each school, our common mission in bringing out the ‘Best in Everyone’ shines through. We aim to offer more to both colleagues and young people than any single school could offer alone.

Strong relationship building and providing outstanding customer service to all stakeholders will be vital for this role. We require a strong and capable IT Technician ready to step up to a more senior position.

United Learning is an exciting organisation to work for; there is a real focus on developing people and empowering innovation where staff are appreciated and celebrated.

The Group’s aim is to ensure that the technology, finance, HR, and data support is provided more effectively and efficiently than would otherwise be possible, so that leaders can focus on educational leadership.

United Learning is an inclusive employer and is committed to creating and sustaining a more ethnically diverse workforce. Therefore, we would very much welcome applications from professionals of all backgrounds who share our commitment but especially those of minority ethnic origin. We do hope you will get in touch with any questions you may have ahead of submitting your application.
