We are excited to offer an excellent opportunity for a dynamic and passionate HR Officer. In this very generalist role, you will become an integral part of the HR team, providing expert advice, leadership, and comprehensive support across a broad spectrum of HR functions. The HR Officer position is pivotal in shaping HR policies, enhancing employee relations, and championing health and wellbeing initiatives across the Trust. This role demands a versatile approach, as you will be involved in everything from management support, HR initiatives, and policy development, to employee relations, absence management, recruitment, and safeguarding, among other responsibilities. This is a perfect opportunity for someone looking to apply a wide range of HR skills and make a significant impact within the organisation.

Altus Education Partnership was formed in 2017 from Rochdale Sixth Form College, an Ofsted Outstanding provider, and grew from our desire to improve education in the borough of Rochdale as a whole.

The Trust currently comprises four academies:

• Rochdale Sixth Form College (RSFC) opened in 2010 to address the significant underachievement in A Level performance in the borough. Since then, it has raised achievement in the area dramatically and is recognised nationally as a centre of excellence. The college is Ofsted Outstanding, Sixth Form College of the Year 2021, and regularly one of the highest performing colleges in the country according to the DfE’s performance tables and national achievement rate tables.
• Edgar Wood Academy is a secondary school opened in a new build in 2021 under Wave 13 of the free schools’ programme. The school has already established a strong reputation in the local community and is significantly over-subscribed for 2023-24.
• Kingsway Park High School is an Ofsted rated Good school with a strong track record of providing its students with an excellent education. The school will soon benefit from a new teaching block.
• Bamford Academy is an Ofsted rated Good school providing a caring and nurturing environment for all of its pupils; it is a popular first choice for many parents and young people in the local community.
