Overview
Make your mark as an Education Centre Manager! We’re looking for an individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment, balancing multiple priorities and driving their team forward. As a leader at the helm of all centre operations, you will own the execution of a clear strategy for centre growth, create a high-performance team culture, and regulate processes to establish a strong foundation for growth.
What you’ll do
* Use a variety of KPIs and performance measures to diagnose what your centre needs to continuously improve. Form a clear plan to achieve both short-term and long-term performance goals and gain the buy-in of your team to execute this effectively.
* Inspire and motivate a full-time Education Centre Supervisor and a team of tutors to succeed in their roles and unlock their individual potential.
* Take a proactive and bold approach to safeguarding the members in your care and empower your team to do the same. Ensure the centre is compliant with Ofsted and company safeguarding requirements.
* Diagnose opportunities to grow centre membership and increase profitability. Work to improve the centre’s local reputation by engaging with key community stakeholders and leading sales and marketing events to attract new members.
* Tailor customer journeys with tailored educational recommendations from prospect to member, ensuring progress and delivering exceptional service.
What we are looking for
* An excellent problem solver — approaching challenges logically and creatively to find solutions with available resources.
* Adaptable — adjusting effectively to changing environments or demands while remaining resilient in the face of setbacks.
* An effective communicator — expressing ideas clearly, concisely, and appropriately for the audience.
* Forward thinking — planning ahead to achieve performance aims; managing time and tasks to focus on what matters most.
* Self-aware — recognising one’s own strengths, weaknesses, emotions and impact on others.
* A bold leader — inspiring and energising others to take action and enabling others to speak up, take risks, and feel respected. Confident to take effective action based on information and judgement.
