Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Writer's Toolbox Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

Writer's Toolbox is a multi-award-winning Education Technology company, delivering writing improvement programmes to hundreds of schools globally and proven to achieve more than double national writing outcomes.  One recent programme of work with Brisbane Catholic Education (BCE) saw NAPLAN writing scores lift at rates eight-times the state of Queensland.  With teams across Australia, New Zealand, and the UK, Toolbox has an established programme that is gaining international reputation for its ability to deliver education transformation at scale using cutting-edge AI.

We are looking for a top-performing school leader to lead the Australian arm of our business through this exciting phase of growth.  This is a rare opportunity to combine your deep passion and drive in education with strong commercial acumen and an action-orientated mindset.  You will likely be in school senior leadership or in a diocese or school network—have proven you can lead and deliver change—and keen to use your skills, network, and passion on a wider stage.

What you'll be doing:

  • Responsible for the educational, financial and operational performance of our entire Australian business

What we're looking for:

  • Extensive experience in school leadership
  • Proven track record of leading successful school transformation
  • Exceptional leadership, communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to motivate and inspire teams
  • Proactive and action orientated with a growth mindset
  • Strong commercial acumen, strategic thinking, and influencing skills, with the ability to develop and implement effective business strategies
  • Tertiary qualifications in education and management
  • Values-led with a genuine commitment to purpose-driven work
  • A passion for making a difference in a pivotal sector of society.
