Your Role

Emmaus Catholic Academy Trust (Diocese of Salford) is dedicated to providing great Catholic education which enables all pupils within our family of schools to flourish. As part of our continued growth and commitment to excellence, we are seeking to expand our central team with the appointment of 2 Governance Partners to support our Governance team.


This is a rewarding opportunity for experienced and highly motivated governance professionals to play a key role in maintaining compliance and service performance for local governance across our family of schools. The successful candidates will proactively ensure robust compliance is in place, strengthening accountability frameworks and collaborating with headteachers, Chairs of Governors, foundation governors and key stakeholders to deliver a consistent, high-quality and effective governance service in line with our Governance strategy.


The post holders will provide expert oversight of governance support services in schools, working closely with Chairs of Governing Bodies, foundation governors and headteachers.


These are exciting roles and the successful candidates will bring a flexible and calm approach to their work, demonstrating the ability to respond effectively to changing priorities and the diverse needs of different school settings.


The postholder will offer guidance and support including minute taking at LGB meetings which will require some flexibility around working hours and location.
