3. Legitimate Aim: The requirement ensures that the MPMT can maintain its commitment to providing gender-sensitive services tailored to the needs of vulnerable females. This aligns with the legitimate aim of protecting residents’ well-being and mental health.

4. Proportionality: The occupational requirement is a proportionate means of achieving the legitimate aim, as it directly addresses the needs of residents in a way that cannot be achieved through alternative measures, such as reallocating duties or employing male/male presenting staff for this role.

This GOR has been carefully considered to ensure compliance with legal standards under the Equality Act 2010 and is applied only where it is essential for fulfilling the primary responsibilities of this specific role.

Are you ready to make a difference to a child's education?

With 57 schools, Lift Schools is one of the country’s largest multi-academy trusts. Good governance is critical to school improvement and to the achievement of our strategic objectives. Education governance refers to the systems, policies, and processes through which an education system or institution is controlled, managed, and held accountable to achieve its goals and ensure quality.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a friendly, agile and highly collaborative governance team that is deeply committed to serving schools and ensuring added value through robust governance.

This role plays a crucial part in ensuring that our schools operate within a strong governance framework and that statutory and trust procedures are followed fairly and consistently. You will work closely with school leaders and our regional officers to ensure the effective handling of sensitive and complex matters.

An interest in education governance is warmly welcomed and will be supported through professional development opportunities, but it is not essential for this role.

We’re a diverse and inclusive network of schools with one clear mission; to provide an excellent education to every child - in every classroom, every day. And we do this across each of our 57 schools.  As with our students, we want our team to be empowered to do their best work, supported by the best leadership they’ve ever had.
We acknowledge and appreciate the exceptional efforts of everyone here in making this an incredible organisation.

We offer you:
