Compliance Officer

Heritage School is seeking to appoint a new part-time (40%) Compliance Officer to commence as soon as possible in the new year. 

The Compliance Officer plays a pivotal role in the life of the school, working alongside the Headmaster, Bursar and Trustees to ensure that the school meets its regulatory requirements with respect to health and safety and data management. 

The Compliance Officer is tasked with developing and maintaining a thorough working knowledge of relevant government and inspection documentation, managing relevant school policies and exercising oversight for their implementation, reporting regularly to Trustees and participating in staff training. 

The role is suited to someone with a good academic history and an ability to read and interpret text rapidly and precisely. Prior professional experience with regulatory compliance in schools or elsewhere is desirable but not essential. Curiosity, close reading and observation, and a willingness to ask questions about existing policies and their implementation is essential, as is an ability to write clearly and concisely. 

We are looking for someone who appreciates the mission and Christian ethos of the school and who is eager to contribute to the ongoing fulfilment of that mission.

If you would like to learn more, please email office@heritageschool.org.uk for an application pack.

The closing date for applications is 9am on Monday the 13th of December. 

Interviews will take place on Thursday the 16th or Friday the 17th of December.
