St Dunstan’s Education Group (SDEG) is one of the fastest‑growing not‑for‑profit independent school groups in the UK. It comprises a dynamic family of schools in south London, united by a shared ethos of integrity, curiosity, and community, and by a bold vision for modern, future‑focused education. Across its four schools and six sites, SDEG educates approximately 1,800 pupils from the earliest years through to Sixth Form. SDEG’s defining philosophy -Excellence. Differently. - is a commitment to reimagining what excellence in education looks like. It encompasses sector‑leading pupil progress, outstanding public examination results, national recognition in sport, music and drama, and award‑winning approaches to wellbeing, inclusion, and curriculum reform. It also reflects the Group’s belief that excellence must extend beyond the classroom to the way it supports families, serves communities, and invests in its staff. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the narrative of a Group that is redefining what independent education can and should be. SDEG is looking for an outstanding Marketing and Communications senior leader who can bring clarity, creativity, and strategic insight; someone who can tell the Group’s story with authenticity and conviction; someone who understands the power of relationships and the importance of aligning message with mission. This high profile and exciting leadership position will most likely be suited to either an experienced education professional or an outstanding individual from a commercial or third-sector background who brings both an instinctive understanding of the independent education landscape and the strategic, relational, and creative skills to thrive in this complex and exciting role.
