Clerk to the Governors – 8 hours per week

We are looking for a clerk to the governors to join our team at Lionheart School, based across two campuses in Newport and Cowes and working flexibly for 8 hours a week.

A clerk to the governors is an advisory role – candidates will be expected to attend board meetings and provide advice on the legal and procedural aspects of school governance. In addition to this, clerks are required to effectively manage agendas, distribute supporting documentation, and produce accurate minutes.

The post would suit a professional from the education, legal, or administrative sectors who is looking for a more flexible employment opportunity. The post is predominantly home-based, although you will be expected to attend meetings which generally take place after school hours.

Please see the job description and person specification for further details.
