Search begins for new education CEO

Government has begun it search for a new leader for the Department of Education, Sport & Culture.

Officials are now looking for a Chief Executive Officer to lead the department, saying the individual must be capable of 'overseeing a period of transformation for the Education Service'.

Graham Kinrade took on the role on an interim basis in September last year following the resignation of Professor Ronald Barr.

Education, Sport & Culture Minister, Dr Alex Allinson MHK, says: "It is an exciting time for the Department as we continue to reset relationships with the teaching profession and deliver the best education, sport and cultural opportunities.

"We want to appoint an inspirational leader, who is capable of setting a vision for the Department, and bring people together to deliver it for the benefit of all Island residents, and in particular our children and young people."

Applications for the position will close on Wednesday, February 24 - how to apply and a job description of the post is available via the link here.
