Director of Education, Inclusion and Early Support

This is a rare opportunity to influence an entire system and make a lasting difference.

In Trafford we are highly ambitious for our children and young people. Our vision is clear; we want every child to have the best possible start, to feel included as a matter of course, and to have every opportunity to achieve and thrive.

As our Director of Education, Inclusion and Early Support, you will lead a wide portfolio covering education, attainment and inclusion, sufficiency planning, and our Best Start in Life programme. You will work closely with schools and multi‑academy trusts, health and community partners to align local strategy with national reform and statutory duties, so children, young people and families feel the benefit of a genuinely joined‑up, inclusive system. 

If you share our ambition for children and young people, and you lead with purpose, collaboration and courage, we would love to hear from you.
