Shipley College is looking for a Digital Transformation Manager to work with our Head of Teaching and Learning Innovation - Luke Terry, to inspire and help revolutionise our approach to how we work and learn. At Shipley, the professional development of all colleagues is a high priority - with protected time to come together as a team, to work independently or across the college - provided by SLT to all colleagues. We call this our Professional Learning Network (PLN). You’ll join Luke’s PLN delivery team to nurture our digital and pedagogical skills, identifying opportunities for development, and building the tools and skills that strip away administrative burden, inefficiency and help each colleague fulfil their core function, creating more time for them to spend on the important things. You will need to root your decision making in strong-evidence based practice, and use your robust fundamental knowledge of pedagogy as your currency to build relationships with academic colleagues.

You will be first and foremost, a great, highly-skilled teacher that understands the science of learning, how to apply it and how to teach it to teachers. You will understand that ‘digital’ is the tool, and not the lesson. We welcome disruption, and radical thinking, delivered within our culture of respect, empathy and integrity. Whether you’re coaching an academic team, developing an app or streamlining a business process, your enthusiasm for innovation will inspire your colleagues to step out of their comfort zones and be courageous in trying something new. So if you’ve spent the majority of your career as an inspirational Teacher Educator and digital pioneer, this is your platform to lead a college-wide revolution as part of the Professional Learning Network delivery team.
