Senior Executive Assistant to the Executive Leadership Team

Thank you for your interest in the role of Senior Executive Assistant to the Executive Leadership Team at Waterton Academy Trust.

We are delighted to share this opportunity with individuals who are highly organised, proactive and committed to supporting effective leadership within a growing and ambitious organisation.

Waterton Academy Trust is a dynamic and expanding multi-academy trust, comprising primary, early years and specialist settings across Wakefield and Barnsley. As the Trust continues to grow in size, complexity and impact, so too does the need for a strong and effective executive function to support strategic leadership and ensure the smooth operation of the organisation.

The Executive Leadership Team (ELT) consists of the Chief Executive Officer, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Chief Finance Officer. Together, they provide strategic direction and leadership across all aspects of the Trust's work. This new role reflects the increasing demands on the Executive Team and the importance of providing high-quality professional support that enables leaders to focus on delivering the Trust's vision and priorities.

The Senior Executive Assistant will play a key role in supporting the ELT through the coordination of diaries, meetings, communications and strategic projects.

This is a varied and rewarding role that requires exceptional organisational skills, attention to detail, discretion and the ability to build positive relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. The successful candidate will be at the heart of the Trust's executive function, contributing to the effectiveness of leadership across our family of schools.

We are seeking an individual who is excited by the opportunity to contribute to a high-performing executive team and play an important part in the Trust's ongoing success.

If you are passionate about providing outstanding professional support and are looking for a role where you can make a meaningful contribution to the work of a growing Trust, we would be delighted to hear from you.

We look forward to receiving your application.

Yours sincerely,

Dave Dickinson
