Senior Property Manager - Block Management Due to continuing growth, we are looking to strengthen our team with a Senior Property Manager, tasked with caring for circa 700 units. We are on the lookout for someone who enjoys property management and wants to be given the breathing space to provide an excellent service, rather than being micromanaged and overloaded with thousands of units. We need someone with at least five years of prior experience as a Block Property Manager, preferably large estates and high-rise buildings and those with previous/ongoing cladding remediation too would be a plus. As an experienced Property Manager, you'd be well aware of the day-to-day duties, which would include: Oversee the smooth running of the portfolio. Attend and prepare for regular meetings with residents/directors. Conduct routine inspections and schedule maintenance. Chair and minute meetings as appropriate and take actions resulting from these. Budget and financial control our system is a big help with this. Build and maintain relationships with all stakeholders. Resolving of queries received on the portfolio. Helping to acquire new business (where commission can also be earned). Assisting with complaints handling (thankfully we don't get many at all but can't always please everyone!). We are very much a team that works closely and learns from each other every day, as no two days in this industry are ever the same. We excel because our focus is on customer service, so we keep unit numbers per Property Manager lower than any other agent, ensuring each block gets a good level of attention, our staff aren't overworked and reducing complaints. We aren't a national agent and will never be as the service is never close to that of a good, local agent. We re in the process of moving to new offices in Castlefield, having outgrown our current office quicker than expected. Other Ideal Traits Are: Excellent knowledge of financial administration (service charge accounting) Effective numeracy and data entry skills Experience in handling cladding replacement work/building safety fund applications Excellent interpersonal skills Ability to maintain a high level of accuracy Ability to meet deadlines and grasp the urgency of departmental activities Experience in managing staff TPI level 3 Personal Skills/Attributes: Maintaining strict confidentiality Demonstrate sound work ethics Flexibility Be assertive and dynamic Be deadline driven Maintaining relationships with all stakeholders Can work independently Problem analysis and solving Professionalism Full drivers licence and ideally own car A Little More About Us We have grown considerably in the last five years but have done so carefully, choosing our clients and setting reasonable fees we don't low ball to win business. We also aren't afraid of offloading impossible clients; we put our own people and our well being first. We are keen not to make the same mistakes as the big agents and are open to ideas and innovation to help improve our services and the work environment of the team. If that sounds interesting, then please apply!

NHS Online is being established as the NHS's first national, digital-first Trust to address some of the most pressing challenges in elective care in England. Conceived by NHS England as a system-level intervention, it will deliver high-quality, clinically rigorous elective care unconstrained by geography, estate or traditional workforce models. Its ambition is transformational rather than incremental: to operate at national scale, set standards for virtual elective care, and directly contribute to elective recovery. Formally established from 1 June 2026, with clinical services launching in 2027/28, NHS Online will operate as a regulated NHS Trust, accountable to the public and Parliament and inspected by the Care Quality Commission. Accessed via the NHS App, it will align clinical capacity with patient demand across England and support more flexible workforce participation. It is expected to deliver the equivalent of up to 8.5 million appointments and assessments in its first three years post launch, freeing physical capacity across local providers for patients who need or prefer in-person care and representing one of the most ambitious service innovations undertaken by the NHS in recent decades. NHS England is seeking to appoint an exceptional Chair to lead NHS Online from its establishment and into full operation. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape a national NHS Trust with the potential to transform elective care and improve health outcomes for populations across England. The Chair will bring experience of leading complex organisations at scale, ideally within digital-first or technology-enabled environments, and the credibility to guide a highly visible, system-critical innovation. The successful candidate will bring significant board-level leadership experience gained in complex organisations, alongside a strong understanding of governance, financial stewardship and performance assurance. This person will have credibility to influence at the highest levels across public and private sectors, experience of leading change at scale, and a clear appreciation of the opportunities and risks associated with digital transformation. Above all, they will be values-driven, committed to equality and inclusion, and motivated by the opportunity to improve access and outcomes for patients nationwide. The time commitment for the role will be two days per week and the remuneration will be £55,000 per annum, this will be reviewed in line with the outcomes of the ongoing pay review. This is an exceptional leadership role at a pivotal moment for the NHS. NHS England particularly welcome applications from candidates who reflect the diversity of the communities the NHS serves and who bring perspectives from a wide range of professional backgrounds.

SGOSS - Governors for Schools
Blackpool, Lancashire
Fylde Coast Academy Trust (FCAT) is a well-established multi-academy trust (MAT) comprising ten schools, including five primary schools, three secondary schools, and two all-through schools (Nursery to age 16). The majority of schools (eight) are based in Blackpool, with two located in Lancashire. FCAT serves 6,500 pupils and employs 900 staff, with 45% of students eligible for Pupil Premium. Many of the communities served by the trust experience significant socio-economic disadvantage, and FCAT is committed to improving educational outcomes for all pupils. The trust has undergone a range of Ofsted inspections in recent years. While some schools have demonstrated strong improvement, others have faced challenges. In December 2024, one of the all-through schools was rated as requiring special measures. Although some areas of the school were judged to be 'Good,' others were found to be 'Inadequate.' FCAT leaders have taken swift action and are awaiting a decision from the Department for Education (DfE) regarding the school's future. The trust intends to make representations to retain the school and drive improvement. Despite these challenges, several FCAT schools are strong performers, including Hambleton Primary, which retained its 'Outstanding' Ofsted rating in December 2024. Many other schools within the trust are currently rated 'Good.' Trust leaders are confident that they have the skills, expertise, and capacity to continue driving school improvement across the MAT. The trust was initially formed through the Free Schools Programme, which provided new schools in the area. Armfield Academy, the most recent addition, joined in 2018. There are currently no plans for further expansion, with leadership focused on consolidating and improving existing schools. FCAT operates on an annual grant income of approximately £50 million and holds a healthy financial reserve to manage cost pressures. Falling birth rates are affecting pupil numbers, and leaders have taken proactive steps to address this. Fylde Coast Academy Trust is seeking to appoint up to three new trustees, each bringing strategic expertise to the board. New trustees will preferably have expertise and senior leadership experience in either primary education, business, risk, community engagement, or finance. Educationalist applicants will offer insight, challenge, and support in improving primary provision across the trust. This individual should have experience of working across multiple schools, either within a multi-academy trust (MAT), local authority (LA), or school improvement consultancy. Expertise may include curriculum development, staff training, leadership development, or inspection processes. A strong understanding of the Ofsted inspection framework would be beneficial, although direct inspection experience is not essential. The successful candidate will be invited to join the Curriculum & Standards Committee, where they will play a vital role in driving school improvement and ensuring high educational standards. Other trustees will have broader business and strategic leadership experience. The trust would particularly welcome applications from individuals with expertise in strategic planning, risk management, change management, finance, or stakeholder engagement. These skills will complement the existing governance expertise on the board and will support the trust's long-term strategic vision and sustainability. Trustees are expected to attend four board meetings per year, held in September, December, March, and July. The September meeting is dedicated to reviewing the previous summer's pupil performance, while the remaining meetings cover general governance matters. Meetings take place on Tuesdays at 4.45pm and typically last up to two hours. In addition to board meetings, the trust operates three committees: Curriculum & Standards, Audit & Risk, and Finance & Resources. These committees also meet on Tuesdays, lasting up to 90 minutes each. The Curriculum & Standards Committee meets at 4.45pm, the Audit & Risk Committee at 4.30pm, and the Finance & Resources Committee at 5.15pm. New trustees will ideally join the committee most aligned to their skill set and interests. While FCAT provides the option for trustees to join meetings remotely when necessary, it is expected that successful applicants will attend in person whenever possible. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a dynamic and ambitious trust that is committed to improving education for thousands of children. FCAT has recently undergone leadership renewal, with a new CEO appointed 18 months ago and a new Chair in place since last year. Trustees will play a critical role in supporting and challenging school leaders to drive improvement, raise ambition, and enhance educational outcomes. For education leaders, this is a chance to work strategically with a highly committed team, making a tangible impact on school improvement and leadership development. For business leaders, it offers the opportunity to apply commercial expertise in a sector that transforms lives and communities. FCAT welcomes applications from experienced education professionals, business leaders, and governance specialists who are passionate about school improvement, governance, and making a lasting difference. All new trustees will be supported by the Chair and Governance Professional through their onboarding and will also be provided with access to Governors for Schools' The First 100 Days as a Trustee e-learning module.
