Harnessing the power of data to drive student progress and school performance.

We are seeking a meticulous and analytically-minded Data Manager to join a forward-thinking secondary school in the Woodberry Grove area of Hackney .

The Snapshot

  • Location: Woodberry Grove, Hackney (Excellent links via Manor House and Finsbury Park)

  • Salary: Highly competitive (Hackney Grade, dependent on experience)

  • Contract: Full-time, Permanent (Usually year-round to support exam results periods)

  • Reports to: Assistant Principal / School Business Manager

The Role

As the School Data Manager, you will be the gatekeeper of information. You will transform raw numbers into actionable insights that help teachers improve student outcomes. Key duties include:

The Environment

Situated in a modern, vibrant campus near the Woodberry Wetlands , this school is at the heart of a rapidly developing Hackney community. The school is known for its "data-rich" culture, where information is used transparently to support student growth rather than just for tracking. You will work in a professional office environment alongside a dedicated administrative and IT support team.

Candidate Profile

  • Experience: Previous experience managing data within an educational setting is highly desirable.

  • Attention to Detail: A "right first time" mentality when handling sensitive student and staff information.
