Closing date: 1st March at 11:59pm

Interviews are to be held on 10th/11th March 2026 at South Wigston High School.

Please note that we reserve the right to close this vacancy early if suitably qualified applicants are identified. Early applications are strongly encouraged.

Learning Without Limits Academy Trust (LwLAT) is a Leicester-based Multi Academy Trust comprising three secondary schools and two primary schools. We are seeking a skilled and motivated data professional to join our Trust team and play a key role in supporting school improvement and strategic decision‑making.

This role will work closely with Trust and school leaders to make effective use of the wealth of data available across the Trust. The postholder will be responsible for bringing together data from multiple sources and turning it into clear, practical insights that inform evidence‑based decision‑making, support improvement planning, and help raise standards for all learners. A core part of the role will be the development and maintenance of Trust‑level dashboards and visualisations that meet both Trust and academy‑level needs.

We are looking for someone with a service‑first mindset who is proactive, approachable, and committed to making the work of colleagues easier and more impactful. The role requires flexibility and a willingness to respond to Trust and school priorities as they arise. The postholder will be based at South Wigston High School for approximately three days per week, with time also spent working from the Trust offices or other academies.

This is an exciting opportunity for a data professional who wants their work to make a genuine difference to schools, leaders, and learners across the Trust.

As a Trust we value inclusive working practices and diverse teams. If you’d prefer to work part‑time or as a job‑share, please let us know on your application and we’ll facilitate this wherever we can.
