Have a look here

 

 

his is a new position, which moves the role from an academic to a strategic responsibility - the Director of Computing Services will be responsible for both strategic and operational IT. In addition to leading the IT team, the Director will operate alongside the senior team, ensuring that both the educational and administrative needs of the School are met. As well as having a sound technical knowledge of IT systems, the successful candidate will have held a senior IT role in education or business. The ability to create an IT strategy and lead staff in the implementation of the IT vision will be critical, as will having a proven track record of project delivery.

Oundle school is a private boarding school, hence why I think the £60k salary.

 

I know their Asst. Net. Manager.

@plexer: With a team of technicians almost as big as Tony's and a Test-Um Validator or 2, they should have the whole place mapped and certified in hours

I don't know ... I go out for the day to visit a friend in London (Thanks for the smoothies, Tom) and to try and do a few deals on training for you lot and all I get is comments about the size of my ... erm ... team.

 

Size isn't everything you know ... it is what you do with it. Of course, it helps to be well provisioned too.

 

Oundle School is nice, I know some people that have worked there (in fact one of our maths teachers has a number of links and I know at least one person there knows about EduGeek).

 

And what is it with people trying to tell me to apply for other jobs? Especially ones that take me out of the LA / SSAT circuit? If I didn't know better I would say someone is after my job here? Mr Dyas? Are you and Stephen planning a coup? hmm ... I'll have to watch you pair very carefully!

oooh that sounds good and sounds so good for me, but i'd never get it

[Grommit]

Man.. Just looked at the Job Description and thats the Job I do now.. plus our ICT roll out Project went to plan .. so I have that project managemet under my belt...

 

mmmm Maybe I should apply

[john]

I must admit I am tempted as I do all of those things now despite being a techy for my main job, as its an independent school they would probably have some staff houses so you may be able to negociate one of them to start with until you can find a place to move into yourself.

The post has been removed obviously, anybody still got the job desription laying around?

[GrumbleDook]

Somewhere, if not I can ask for them again.

 

When I saw the thread was live I thought the job had come up again. Are you looking for sample job descriptions for a similar post?

[Butuz]

I would have been interested to see the job discription for this post too. Is it lurking around somewhere?

 

Cheers

I am going to have a dig around at home to see if i kept a copy, but I can't really tick it up on here as it is not mine to pass around. That is why I was asking if it is to help writing a JD ... in which case a request can be made to the school and I can hand it over.

[SpecialAgent]

weren't they looking to fill this post about the same time last year?

[GrumbleDook]

Yes ... the post has been filled and is still filled. It has been resurrected by someone wanting to see what the job description was ...
