* Oversee operational services, ensuring full compliance with health & safety and statutory requirements
* Work closely with the Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team to support strategic and long-term planning
* Ensure staffing, systems, and resources are used effectively to create a positive and well-managed environment for pupils
