Regional Director - South West

About the Company

Requirements

• ● rovide children with positive experiences, but having the right staff is essential to fulfilling that promise - that's where we come in. Whether it's a year 1 teacher to greet her "good morning" or a Teaching Assistant to support him in the break times, Zen helps schools find the right educators faster without breaking the bank.
• ● Schools in the UK spend over 2bn a year on agency staff. Zen is an all-in-one digital platform that gives schools full control over how they find, vet, and manage temporary educators. School leaders can search, book, and manage staff in real time, while gaining full visibility and control over their spend and compliance.
• ● To go with our technology, we practice a culture of "we care more", so that ultimately, by improving staffing in schools, we're delivering thousands of smiles to children's faces every single day. What we need now is to reach the next level in school awareness and adoption. That's where you come in.
• ● What we are looking for
• ● We've built strong foundations already:
• ● We are one of the leading suppliers in our industry and one of the fastest growing companies in the UK
• ● A high-performing team in place across the South West of England, craving leadership.
• ● A differentiated product that makes a genuine impact on the lives of educators, pupils, and the education system
• ● We're now looking to level up even further. You'll be excited about this role if you:
• ● Set a high bar for your team and are skilled at coaching both managers and ICs to be the best version of themselves as possible.
• ● Are a proven leader that is just as obsessed about building systems and leading teams as you are about hitting growth targets.
• ● Are as comfortable aligning strategy and process with central supporting functions as you are with rolling out initiatives in your region.
• ● Some traits that usually correlate with success in this role
• ● You're passionate about making real world impact on the education system
• ● You think BIG, not only incrementally. In three years your region will be
• ● unrecognisable from where it is now
• ● You're process-led and hyper-structured. You plan meticulously and build playbooks to
• ● deliver commercial results, rather than relying on herculean individual efforts
• ● You can align teams, not just ideas
• ● You love finding simple answers to complex problems
