Education jobs
About the Department
The Church of England Foundation for Educational Leadership was set up in 2017 with the mission to 'develop inspirational leaders who are called, connected, committed to deliver the Church of England vision for education'. Since then, it has operated a wide range of leadership development programmes, networks, research, conference and events, and published a range of key leadership resources to equip school leaders at every level to put their vision into practice.
Part of this provision has been as a very successful national provider of NPQ programmes. Beginning in 2017 with the delivery of NPQs for Headteachers, our suite of programmes has now expanded to include programmes for Specialist Teachers, Senior Leaders and also Executive Leaders. More recently, a partnership between the Church of England and the Catholic Education Service is also enabling programmes to be delivered more widely as together our school provision represents around 34% of the sector.
In 2025, the department will launch three new national programmes: Flourishing Leaders, Flourishing Teachers, and Flourishing ECTs (in partnership with UCL). These programmes respond to growing demand for high-quality, values-led professional learning and represent a significant expansion of our work across the education sector.
About the Role
As Programme Lead for Flourishing ECTs, you will oversee the successful delivery of the Flourishing ECTE programme: a professional learning offer we have developed at the Church of England in partnership with UCL.
You will ensure these programmes are delivered with excellence across a wide network of regional partners, supporting facilitators to create high-impact learning experiences for school leaders and teachers. Your role will involve coordinating delivery partners, refining programme content based on feedback and research, and ensuring that participants are well-supported throughout their learning journey.
You will play a key role in shaping the future of these programmes, driving continuous improvement and championing a vision of leadership and teaching that enables adults in education to flourish.

As part of Money Ready 16+ Programmes and Delivery Directorate, the London Location Manager is responsible for the successful delivery of Money Ready’s programmes across London, alongside building sustainable, strategic growth of the organisation’s presence, partnerships, and impact in the region (and, where appropriate, surrounding areas).
This is a hybrid delivery and growth role, shaped by the maturity of delivery in the region. In new or developing areas, the postholder will combine direct programme delivery with responsibility for growing Money Ready’s footprint until additional delivery capacity is in place. In established areas, while there may be opportunities to contribute to delivery, the primary focus is on market growth, reach, and saturation, ensuring Money Ready’s programmes are embedded and well-utilised.
The postholder will lead and support a high-quality team of delivery staff already working across London. Money Ready is proud of the calibre of its trainers, which includes former teachers and youth workers, and the role is responsible for creating the conditions in which this team can thrive and deliver consistently excellent programmes.
Together with the current London Location Manager, you will be accountable for developing and delivering a London location strategy, ensuring growth that is worthwhile, strategic, and sustainable. This is a strongly externally-facing role, focused on strengthening Money Ready’s reputation as a go-to provider of financial education in London. The postholder will bring strong local networks and credibility, helping to open doors, build partnerships, and generate opportunities through their presence and leadership.
While the role requires a high degree of autonomy and ownership, it is not expected to be delivered in isolation. The London Location Manager will work closely with colleagues across Money Ready, drawing on central expertise and support to deliver regional objectives.
Money Ready is seeking ambitious, values-driven individuals who are excited by the opportunities of working in a growing charity and who are motivated to share their expertise to help Money Ready reach more people through everything we do
