Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group (NSCG) is seeking to appoint a new Principal and Chief Executive following the retirement of Craig Hodgson.
NSCG is by any measure one of the most successful colleges within the FE sector: Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ in all areas since 2019; financially outstanding for over a decade; superb facilities for learning; buoyant recruitment; a ‘top 3’ GFE college for learner responsive and apprenticeship achievement rates; a flourishing Institute of Technology; and exciting plans for future development including taking the lead in a new Advanced Manufacturing Technical Excellence College.
The role requires a person with inspirational and aspirational leadership skills; a clear and confident communicator; a shared commitment to excellence; and the strategic knowledge and business acumen necessary to sustain our record of growth and stability and maintain NSCG’s position as a leading college regionally and nationally.
With an experienced and talented staff team already in place we think that it is one of the best and most rewarding jobs in the sector.
The closing date for completed applications is Friday 8 May 2026.
Interviews are scheduled for Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 June.
