Clerk to the Governing Body
Grade 8: £12.37 - £13.72 per hour
95 hours per year, approx. 2.5 hours per week, term time only
Home working, with attendance at evening meetings
Are you interested in supporting a local school and engaging with your community? Do you have good administrative skills and writing ability as well as an eye for detail? Would you like to gain new skills in a flexible, varied and interesting role?
We have a number of vacancies across our Trust for Clerks to support our school local governing bodies. Among other things you would be responsible for:
- The timely circulation of agendas
- Attending governing body meetings and the production of accurate minutes
- Monitoring governing body membership and attendance
- Maintaining the register of governors’ business interests
- Providing administrative support to the governing body
- Providing advice to governors on their legal and procedural duties.
Our governing bodies generally meet in the evenings but the rest of the work can be done at home at any time. Clerking for both full governor meetings and committees in one school would amount to approximately 95 hours per year including attendance at meetings (up to 14 per school year) and preparation and follow-up, as well as other duties related to the governing body’s operations.
We are interested in receiving applications from experienced clerks but we would also like to hear from anyone who might not have clerking experience but would like to train as one, as we can offer full training for this role.
