At Eastern Multi Academy Trust we believe that a diverse Board means a Board that is more innovative and creative and ultimately pushes the organisation forward.  We want our Board to represent the diversity of the children we support and be reflective of the communities we serve. 

Different experiences and perspectives are appreciated, which is why we’re interested in who you are.  Your lived experiences and your personal values are as important as your professional achievements.  To reflect our commitment to diversity and inclusion, we particularly welcome applications from people who are underrepresented in our organisation:

•are aged 18 – 35

•identify as disabled or neurodivergent

•have a broad range of experience of working life (you do not need a university degree to be a trustee)

•are ethnically diverse

•are LGBTQIA+

•have experience of the SEND provision, the care system or were eligible for free school meals

We are flexible and understand everyone has different needs, so we will always try and find ways to accommodate them.
