Programme Officer, The Scholar's Programme
About the role
We are excited to be recruiting a Programme Officer for The Scholars Programme to join the Programme Management Team and support us to deliver the goals set out in Join the Club, our ambitious strategy for 2021-2026.
The Programme Officer role is essential to the delivery of high-quality Scholars Programme placements. Each Programme Officer in the team manages a cluster of placements, working with teachers to arrange programme logistics and PhD tutors to deliver their courses in schools.

Programme Officers are also involved in the direct delivery of aspects of the Programme (e.g. PhD tutor training and university events) and oversee the renewal of school partnerships.
This role requires a driven and dynamic team player, with successful experience of school teaching, academia or programme management. The postholder will be positive and proactive, with a commitment to delivering excellent standards. They will be comfortable building relationships with a wide range of stakeholders and managing logistics through our online CRM system. They will champion the charity’s values and embody them in interactions with colleagues and partners.
This role will involve some travel to deliver events at our different university partners. Some travel will also be required (mainly to London) for events and to attend in-person meetings.
