Slough and Eton School and Grove Academy, both part of SEBMAT, are looking to recruit a motivated and enthusiastic Level 6 qualified Careers Adviser. Having outsourced careers advice for a number of years we are now keen to employ someone who will become a member of our school communities and who knows the students and staff well. This role will be based at Slough and Eton two days a week and a third day based at Grove Academy, also in Chalvey.

We want to employ a Careers Adviser who will deliver one to one and group sessions to students by offering advice and guidance and to support them to make appropriate yet ambitious career decisions. We want our students to see the Careers Adviser as someone they can go to for careers advice and support whenever they need it and who will assist them with college, sixth form and apprenticeship applications. Our Careers Adviser will work under the guidance of an Assistant Headteacher.

The only essential requirement is to be qualified to Level 6 in Careers Guidance. Aside from that we want someone who can connect with young people, who wants to be part of the our team at school and who can provide support and guidance to enable out students to go on and lead a successful and fulfilling life.

Slough and Eton is a great school on the outskirts of Slough, which serves the Chalvey community. We are relentlessly focused on ensuring great teaching, learning and experiences are at the core of what we do. It is an exciting time for us and our students are a pleasure to work with.

Grove Academy is the first all-through school to open in Slough and provides opportunity and education for 4 to 16 year olds, underpinned bu high-quality teaching and learning and a common assessment framework.
