Leading a newly formed, dedicated team, you will operate outside the constraints of the traditional BAU technology function, to explore, prototype, and ship high-impact AI tools and MVPs. Reporting jointly into the CEO and working closely with the CTO, reflecting the strategic imperative of this role, this provides for a unique "blank slate" mandate to provide innovation against our current and future product set, and to support our internal business efficiency through radical, outside-the-box thinking.

But, at the same time finding those nuggets that will provide transformative ways of tackling problems and improving the value of our products to our customers.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as the primary liaison between technical teams and executive stakeholders to ensure AI initiatives are understood and supported across the business. Dual-Report Leadership: Act as the strategic bridge between the CEO and CTO, ensuring innovation remains a top-tier business priority while maintaining technical excellence and architectural alignment. Team Building: Mentor a lean, high-performing team of Principle Engineers, capable of bringing forward the innovative thinking, fostering a culture of rapid experimentation and high-quality delivery, required to ensure success for this new initiative. What will you need to succeed? Proven Innovation Track Record: Deep experience in delivering innovative thinking into more traditional technology solutions, with the ability to straddle the business objectives and technology conversations. AI & ML Expertise: Strong working knowledge of current AI frameworks and a solid understanding of LLM orchestration, and training/specialising models. A strong practical knowledge of how to build AI and LLM's is essential, along with a deep understanding of when and when not to air gap AI technology. Cloud & Infrastructure: Proficiency with cloud services (AWS & Azure) and an understanding and track record of how to design and deliver scalable, innovative improvements. Fearless Problem Solving: A willingness to challenge conventional thinking and investigate non-obvious solutions to complex business problems, both for external product and internal systems. Senior Stakeholder Management: Excellent communication skills to translate high-level innovation concepts into actionable business narratives for the executive board. Leadership: Experience managing small-to-midsize technical teams, within a SaaS environment, and the ability to inform, influence and support across both technical and operational business functions. AI Expertise: A proven track record of shipping AI-powered features into a production environment. Academic Background: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field 10+ years of professional product innovation, including a track record of bringing disruptive technology to market.

Teacher of Academic Music and Musicianship We are seeking to appoint an inspirational teacher capable of delivering the highest standards of teaching and learning in a world-leading specialist music school. The Academic Music Department at the Purcell School offers a unique programme of study, which forms an important part of every student's specialist musical education. Analysis and aural awareness are at the heart of everything we do and high-level training in these areas is a core component of the curriculum for every student. In Years 7 to 9, students study a series of topics which form the basis of creative and analytical projects, designed to expand their general musical knowledge and inform their practical studies. In Year 10, students follow the AQA GCSE music syllabus and in Year 11, they prepare for Sixth Form study through an in-depth study of larger scale works. In the Sixth Form, we currently offer A Level Music (OCR) and, in an exciting expansion of our provision, we have recently announced our intention to offer a new vocational pathway (RSL Diploma in Creative Music Industry) from September 2026. Students opting for the vocational programme will complete a broad music course, equivalent in size to three A Levels, with tailored classes designed for those in our classical performance, jazz, commercial, music production and composition departments. The school's Musicianship Programme runs in tandem with the above. In Years 7 and 8, pupils attend three Musicianship classes per week: these small-group classes include opportunities to explore music theory and analysis from aural and practical perspectives. From Year 9, students can choose from a range of electives (including advanced analysis, grades 6-8 music theory, keyboard skills, music technology and conducting), all designed to complement their instrumental studies and their core aural, analysis and exam classes. All students attend a weekly composition class and choir rehearsal. Purcell students achieve exceptional grades in Music and nearly all go on to study the subject at either conservatoire or university. Students who intend to apply to university to read Music are prepared for entrance examinations and interviews, with recent school leavers taking up places at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard and SOAS. Music teachers at the Purcell school have a varied timetable and the successful candidate should expect to contribute to the delivery of music history, analysis, composition and general musicianship programmes and to work with students from across the age range. This will include classes linked to GCSE, A Level and Diploma programmes. In addition, we encourage our teachers to develop their own projects and courses, as related to their own musical specialisms and interests. Depending on expertise, experience and qualifications, there may also be opportunities for the successful candidate to contribute to the delivery of performance classes and/or our music technology programmes. TERMS AND CONDITIONS This is a full time post to start on 1st September 2026. The salary will be based on the School's salary scale, according to the successful candidate's experience, with a contributory pension scheme. Children of staff are not eligible to be educated at the School except through the normal admissions and audition process. The post is subject to a probationary period. All posts are subject to regular appraisal. All members of staff are expected to contribute fully to the School's extra-curricular and/or boarding provision. Lunch can be taken free of charge at the School during term time HOW TO APPLY If you wish to apply, please complete the School's Application Form (available on our website) and send it with a supporting Personal Statement to the Principal as soon as possible. Please do not send a separate curriculum vitae as these will not be accepted. Closing date for applications is Sunday 19th April 2026. Interviews week of 27th April 2026 (subject to confirmation). Personal statements should outline your experience, subject knowledge and evidence your achievements. If you have a specific area of specialism or industry experience, please demonstrate how this enables you to create inspirational lessons. The Personal Statement is your opportunity to tell us how your skills and experience, both within your subject and beyond, can contribute to an outstanding student experience. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to the school where you will have the opportunity to meet key staff and to lead a short lesson. Interviews will explore subject knowledge, pastoral experience and the ability to relate appropriately to students. Candidates will be required to produce evidence of identity and qualifications prior to the interview.

Full time
Teacher of Academic Music and Musicianship We are seeking to appoint an inspirational teacher capable of delivering the highest standards of teaching and learning in a world-leading specialist music school. The Academic Music Department at the Purcell School offers a unique programme of study, which forms an important part of every student's specialist musical education. Analysis and aural awareness are at the heart of everything we do and high-level training in these areas is a core component of the curriculum for every student. In Years 7 to 9, students study a series of topics which form the basis of creative and analytical projects, designed to expand their general musical knowledge and inform their practical studies. In Year 10, students follow the AQA GCSE music syllabus and in Year 11, they prepare for Sixth Form study through an in-depth study of larger scale works. In the Sixth Form, we currently offer A Level Music (OCR) and, in an exciting expansion of our provision, we have recently announced our intention to offer a new vocational pathway (RSL Diploma in Creative Music Industry) from September 2026. Students opting for the vocational programme will complete a broad music course, equivalent in size to three A Levels, with tailored classes designed for those in our classical performance, jazz, commercial, music production and composition departments. The school's Musicianship Programme runs in tandem with the above. In Years 7 and 8, pupils attend three Musicianship classes per week: these small-group classes include opportunities to explore music theory and analysis from aural and practical perspectives. From Year 9, students can choose from a range of electives (including advanced analysis, grades 6-8 music theory, keyboard skills, music technology and conducting), all designed to complement their instrumental studies and their core aural, analysis and exam classes. All students attend a weekly composition class and choir rehearsal. Purcell students achieve exceptional grades in Music and nearly all go on to study the subject at either conservatoire or university. Students who intend to apply to university to read Music are prepared for entrance examinations and interviews, with recent school leavers taking up places at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard and SOAS. Music teachers at the Purcell school have a varied timetable and the successful candidate should expect to contribute to the delivery of music history, analysis, composition and general musicianship programmes and to work with students from across the age range. This will include classes linked to GCSE, A Level and Diploma programmes. In addition, we encourage our teachers to develop their own projects and courses, as related to their own musical specialisms and interests. Depending on expertise, experience and qualifications, there may also be opportunities for the successful candidate to contribute to the delivery of performance classes and/or our music technology programmes. TERMS AND CONDITIONS This is a full time post to start on 1st September 2026. The salary will be based on the School's salary scale, according to the successful candidate's experience, with a contributory pension scheme. Children of staff are not eligible to be educated at the School except through the normal admissions and audition process. The post is subject to a probationary period. All posts are subject to regular appraisal. All members of staff are expected to contribute fully to the School's extra-curricular and/or boarding provision. Lunch can be taken free of charge at the School during term time HOW TO APPLY If you wish to apply, please complete the School's Application Form (available on our website) and send it with a supporting Personal Statement to the Principal as soon as possible. Please do not send a separate curriculum vitae as these will not be accepted. Closing date for applications is Sunday 19th April 2026. Interviews week of 27th April 2026 (subject to confirmation). Personal statements should outline your experience, subject knowledge and evidence your achievements. If you have a specific area of specialism or industry experience, please demonstrate how this enables you to create inspirational lessons. The Personal Statement is your opportunity to tell us how your skills and experience, both within your subject and beyond, can contribute to an outstanding student experience. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to the school where you will have the opportunity to meet key staff and to lead a short lesson. Interviews will explore subject knowledge, pastoral experience and the ability to relate appropriately to students. Candidates will be required to produce evidence of identity and qualifications prior to the interview. Applications should be made to the Principal, sent by email or by letter to: Recruitment, The Purcell School, Aldenham Road, Bushey, Hertfordshire, WD23 2TS.
