Maintain this data across the year. Once the system is set up for the new academic year, and prior to session starting, receive information about timetables from Deputy Head(s) LP/UP, from PE, Drama, Art, Music and from this generate subject sets. Create subject sets (c500) for each class, English, Numeracy, Literacy, Spanish, Art, Music, Drama etc attaching class, teacher, pupils, location, times and days which ultimately creates the timetable which teachers use. Ongoing maintenance of this data as required across the year. Data Maintenance Ensures the school management information systems are kept up to date with pupil information, e.g. change of circumstances, medical information, dashboards, Mathletics, SpellZone. Entries must be accurate and timely. Testing At key tracking points across the year (termly) work closely with Deputy Head (LP) to organise the testing programme. Agree dates of testing, share on central calendar with staff, decide whether enough test papers are in stock, maintain stock control, order papers where needed, consider supplier lead times, prepopulate external sites with data of children, dob, gender, names, class. Without this info the child cannot take an online test and for paper tests, the results could not be recorded by the testing company to the right child. Once results are available generate a csv file and import into a markbook. Create markbook tasks. Each test has a name, therefore getting the naming convention accurate is essential, as this is pulled off onto the dashboard. Allocate teacher, children being reported, additional markers. Assist teachers with entering scores/grades, as required and provide technical support/guidance. Report Production Ad hoc, creation of reports from the management information systems, e.g. running pre designed ODBC reports, creating new (if basic) or seeking help from Senior School Deputy as required. Present data in various formats e.g. excel, graphs, pivot tables to Management/Staff/Annual Report. Typical reports include individual/ cohort performance, performance by subject. Interim and End of Session Reports for parents Twice a year, using Google sheets creates blank templates for teaching staff to complete with comments on the pupils and grades for attainment/approach etc. Create a reference page to accompany the template, which involves populating with data about the pupil. Once a teacher has completed the template, the job holder reformats through a merge process to create a pre designed PDF document for sharing with parents by the Communications Team. Any changes that are requested by parents are made to the final report. Once finalised, individually assign a pupil record . click apply for full job details

Join Us in Shaping the Future of AI at Barclays. We're launching an exciting new initiative at Barclays to design, build, and scale next-generation platform components that empower developers - including Quants and Strats - to create high-performance, AI-driven applications. As an AI/MLOps Platform Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in this transformation, working hands-on to develop the infrastructure and tooling that supports the full lifecycle of machine learning and generative AI workloads. This is more than an engineering role-it's an opportunity to influence technical direction, collaborate across diverse teams, and help define how AI and GenAI are delivered at scale. To be successful as an AI/MLOps Platform Engineer at this level, you should have experience with: Proficiency in Python engineering skills, especially in backend systems and infrastructure. Deep AWS expertise, including services like SageMaker, Lambda, ECS, Step Functions, S3, IAM, KMS, CloudFormation, and Bedrock. Proven experience building and scaling MLOps platforms and supporting GenAI workloads in production. Strong understanding of secure software development, cloud cost optimization, and platform observability. Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Demonstrated leadership in setting technical direction while remaining hands-on. Some other highly valued skills may include: Experience with MLOps platforms such as Databricks or SageMaker, and familiarity with hybrid cloud strategies (Azure, on-prem Kubernetes). Strong understanding of AI infrastructure for scalable model serving, distributed training, and GPU orchestration. Expertise in Large Language Models (LLMs) and Small Language Models (SLMs), including fine-tuning and deployment for enterprise use cases. Hands-on experience with Hugging Face libraries and tools for model training, evaluation, and deployment. Knowledge of agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, AutoGen) and Model Context Protocol (MCP) for building autonomous AI workflows and interoperability. Awareness of emerging trends in GenAI platforms, open-source MLOps, and cloud-native AI solutions You may be assessed on the key critical skills relevant for success in role, such as risk and controls, change and transformation, business acumen strategic thinking and digital and technology, as well as job-specific technical skills. This role can be based out of our Glasgow or Canary Wharf office. Purpose of the role To design, develop and improve software, utilising various engineering methodologies, that provides business, platform, and technology capabilities for our customers and colleagues. Accountabilities Development and delivery of high-quality software solutions by using industry aligned programming languages, frameworks, and tools. Ensuring that code is scalable, maintainable, and optimized for performance. Cross-functional collaboration with product managers, designers, and other engineers to define software requirements, devise solution strategies, and ensure seamless integration and alignment with business objectives. Collaboration with peers, participate in code reviews, and promote a culture of code quality and knowledge sharing. Stay informed of industry technology trends and innovations and actively contribute to the organization's technology communities to foster a culture of technical excellence and growth. Adherence to secure coding practices to mitigate vulnerabilities, protect sensitive data, and ensure secure software solutions. Implementation of effective unit testing practices to ensure proper code design, readability, and reliability. Assistant Vice President Expectations To advise and influence decision making, contribute to policy development and take responsibility for operational effectiveness. Collaborate closely with other functions/ business divisions. Lead a team performing complex tasks, using well developed professional knowledge and skills to deliver on work that impacts the whole business function. Set objectives and coach employees in pursuit of those objectives, appraisal of performance relative to objectives and determination of reward outcomes If the position has leadership responsibilities, People Leaders are expected to demonstrate a clear set of leadership behaviours to create an environment for colleagues to thrive and deliver to a consistently excellent standard.
