CAREERS CO-ORDINATOR
30 hours per week, term time only plus 2 INSET days
B&NES Grade 3 (£17,583 per annum minimum gross starting salary)
or B&NES Grade 4 depending on qualification held (£18,146 per annum minimum gross starting salary)
An exciting opportunity for a creative and proactive individual to join our Student Support Team as a Careers Co-ordinator. This is a full time, permanent post.
Having achieved excellent results in summer 2025, Buckler’s Mead Academy is going from strength to strength. Our most recent Ofsted, in May 2024, judged us as a strong ‘Good’ in all areas.
In the first instance the post will include:
● Administering Work Experience, Higher Education month and visits, Work Related Talent Academies
● Organising and co-ordinating Careers Events
● Providing Careers information, advice and guidance to students.
It is desirable for candidates to hold a Level 6 Diploma Career Guidance and Development qualification or have a willingness to train for the qualification.
The successful candidate should have:
• A good level of education to include GCSE English and Mathematics
• Outstanding communication skills – both written, oral and interpersonal with both adults and children
• Good ICT skills
• Ability to work independently and use own initiative
• Strong organisational skills
(Please see accompanying Job Description for further details of the duties and responsibilities of this post).
In return we can offer you the opportunity to work with motivated students, the full support of a dedicated and committed team of staff, a supportive induction programme and ongoing professional development, plus the opportunity to work in a developing academy in a beautiful area of the South West. We seek to significantly invest in developing all of our staff. Having joined the Midsomer Norton Schools’ Partnership in September 2021, we are part of a Trust which is often considered the ‘market leader’ in the South West for school improvement. The successful candidate will benefit from Trust wide opportunities, such as early careers induction, CPD and working with colleagues across Trust schools.
Staff benefits include free on-site parking, membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and access for all staff to the Employee Assistance Programme “Health Assured”, which is a telephone based advice, information and counselling service. A selection of meals, snacks and drinks is available for staff to purchase at lunch and break times.
Buckler’s Mead Academy is a highly inclusive academy, serving the east of Yeovil, Somerset. Our vision as an academy is “an inspiring education for all”. We believe that all members of our community should be given the opportunity to be happy, to achieve, participate and become successful. Our job as professionals is to ensure this happens. All our staff sign up to these aspirations and play a full role in contributing to this vision through inclusive teaching. We seek to recruit dedicated and talented staff, highly committed to making a difference.
The academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to references and a full Disclosure and Barring Service check. Please note that we may carry out online searches on shortlisted candidates as part of our Safer Recruitment and Due Diligence checks.
Buckler’s Mead Academy is an equal opportunities employer. The campus is a no smoking site.
